Anyone know what this is - or what it does - or if it's OEM???

This is far less entertaining than the device I found hooked up in the steering column of my explorer years ago. I bought the thing from a small car lot locally, and there was never a lein on it. Some color me surprised when I found a little GPS lte device hooked up under the steering wheel. Once I got it all disconnected, I Googled the fcc ID and found it was a leftover from a shady buy here pay here place. Such a device can locate the vehicle and interrupt the ignition if so desired (ie payments not made}. Needless to say I removed it entirely and had a good chuckle about it.
