Ignition Interlock System FAQs
How long does it take to calibrate an interlock device?
To keep your Interlock functioning smoothly, you'll schedule a brief (15-minute) calibration appointment at our location every 30-60 days (depending on your state). This quick visit allows us to download data and refresh the device, while you also take care of your next payment.
Can I calibrate my interlock early?
Think of your calibration appointment as a friendly pit stop, keeping your car in tip-top shape. While they're usually monthly, the schedule can change depending on your area. You can avoid any calendar clashes by popping in for calibration a bit before your regular service appointment. Two birds, one visit, happy driving!
How long does it take to install the interlock?
At Ken's Auto Center, one of our certified technicians will install your Intoxalock. This process can take 30-90 minutes depending on the type of ignition interlock device you're having installed.

OUR REVIEWS
Stephanie Hubbard, 07/01/2025Ken’s Auto Center was amazing!!! I have a 25 year old Jeep and had been dealing with an overheating engine for three years. It was supposedly repaired by a different mechanic three times. While visiting San Diego my car broke down. I took it to Ken’s and they treated me like family. When they went over the engine, they found a lot of issues that showed the prior mechanic clearly didn’t know what they were doing. Ken’s team were very knowledgeable and explained everything to me. We discussed the critical, suggested, and future repair options and they had very fair prices. The team went above and beyond to make sure I could safely make it home, 500 miles away, and said they would help find me a reliable mechanic where I live. I had to go over the Grapevine and every time in the past my car had always come close to pegging the red line or overheating. This time, it was the end of June and over 100°. My engine never got above midpoint on the temperature gauge and I had my AC running the whole time!!! Ken’s Auto Center’s team are true saviors in my book! I highly recommend Ken’s Auto Center to everyone in San Diego. It is clear why they are still in business after 24 years!!!
