Car Lockout in Scarborough
From Kennedy Station lots to a quiet street in Cliffside, iGuard reaches stranded drivers in Scarborough.
Avoiding a second lockout in Scarborough
A car lockout at Scarborough Town Centre or the Kennedy Station lot usually comes from habit: the key set down on a seat, the door closed with a bag in one hand. After we get you in, we suggest small changes, such as a spare key kept in a wallet or with someone at home, and a habit of checking pockets before shutting the door. Winter adds frozen door seals, so let the car warm before you lock it with the engine running.

Common questions
- What is the simplest way to avoid a repeat car lockout? Keep a spare key somewhere other than the car, ideally with a trusted person, and check your pockets before you shut the door.
- What if the alarm is armed? Tell us on the call. Some vehicles sound the alarm when opened; we plan for it.
