As the owner and/or operator of the ignition interlock vehicle, you may of course request removal of the ignition interlock device at any time. Monitech will schedule an appointment for removal at the service center of your choice at no cost. You may also opt to have the unit removed at your home or other location for a charge of $35.00 per hour (minimum of 2 hours), plus mileage and any additional charges that may be incurred. Upon removal, it is very important to note that Monitech is required to immediately report such action (interlock removal or disconnect) to the proper adjudication agency (normally DMV). If you have not met the service requirements of the proper adjudicating agency (normally DMV or the Courts), you may be in violation of your restricted license, limited privilege, or conditionally restored license. In most cases, the interlock removal date is clearly noted on your state-issued driving privilege. Any consequences of such a voluntary removal and subsequent Monitech report to DMV or other agency is the sole responsibility of the ignition interlock customer. If the adjudicating agency (normally DMV) determines additional ignition interlock service time is required, then additional interlock installation and lease fees are incurred. If caught driving without the ignition interlock installed vehicle, the interlock-required customer may be subject to loss of license and/or other restrictions or punishment. In most cases, the interlock removal date is clearly noted on your state-issued driving privilege. If there is any doubt, please consult with the proper agency (normally DMV) that your interlock may be legally removed without ramification.
