    Vehicle Tracker from GuidePoint Systems. They private labeled to Mopar so you will see these in Chrysler/Dodge. Check out their logo and you will see that the button was installed upside down (pretty common for whatever reason). https://www.guidepointsystems.com/

    Switch is definitely on the dash. Might be the panic button.

    Seems like a combo of OnStar and Lojack.

    Vehicle Tracker. This was my first thought and I second this. Some used car sellers install these to make it easier to recover a vehicle when people slow pay/ don't pay.
