This video, done by a highly respected member of http://radardetector.net shows that the Escort 9500i Radar Detector "TrueLock" GPS False Alarm Lockout feature does NOT work as advertised.

The TrueLock is supposed to be able to lockout a specific frequency from a false alarm, and still be able to alert to real police radar in the same area.

Escort, please fix this issue or your customers will be getting tickets from police with K band radar!!!

  • I'm not really understanding all these numbers and band stuff. Would you mind just showing us driving in your car with the true lock feature on in a certain area for speed traps or just any area with a cop near so we can actually see it doing this? I'm asking b/c I'm considering buying the 9500i but I've been hearing lots of bad things about the 9500i and most people have been telling me that it doesnt even have the range of the 8500x50 and that I'd be better off buying the 8500x50.

  • The other video I posted, Escort 9500i Locking Out Real Police Radar, shows this.

    For 9500i radar performance results, check out the GOL tests on guysoflidar*com

  • Your test is laden with problems! Completely unrealistic,not valid in any way.

  • This is a VERY True test! I have tested it my self on the road! The 9500ix also has the same fault!!!

  • Do they have this problem with their newer models?

  • Ahhhh i had to turn the volume down!

  • i thought the band lockout is save on a particular spot....

  • Let's hope it's stays that way so consumers can get true results and not corporate paid shill bullshit. Plus their honest reviews and the fact they are not for profit forces the companies to live up to thier lip services and improve the products + these companies can't accuse them of anything.

  • Thank goodness for non-corrpupted consumer advocate groups. Otherwise companies that overmarket / falsely market themselves would not get caught as much.

    I hope this consumer advocate group does not start getting paid for thier reviews...

  • LOL!

  • that RD sooks!!!!
