This remote starter is perfect, has a good range so i do not need to purchase a subscription to use it. Also, when a signal is send you will receive a response whether the car has received it. I would suggest to get this for the car and Best buy does a good job of installing it.

Don’t be afraid to buy this, it’s worth the money. I originally purchased the “entry level” model of the Compustar remote starter and was almost immediately disappointed by the range so it was a no brainer to return and replace it. The 2 way remote gives a good indication of the status that you are trying to achieve, but the selling point is the mobile app. It gives the status “live” of your vehicle. From battery voltage, locked/unlocked status, GPS location, inside temp. I’m knocking down a star only because I don’t quite believe the inside temp, I had the AC running and it would show a hotter temp than when the car was off baking in the sun, unless they are going for the money grab and I need to buy an extra sensor. Overall, I recommend

Informative installation process and excellent product and the only reason I am scoring this a 4/5 stars simply the loss of extra key fob in order to effectively use the product. So I only have one key fob now without a backup just in case I lose it. Drone service is pretty cool and I wish it was not a monthly service deal but I get it. Losing an extra key fob didn’t not deter due to the fact I wanted a remote start (hot Texas weather) occasionally ice storms.

This is a great remoter starter. The features available depending on the plan are great. Being able to start the car from any distance is something we've never had. The service does have some glitches but it's nothing that can't be fixed with the restart of your phone in most cases.

Works flawlessly with my 2017 jeep grand Cherokee 75th. A must have for anyone who wants the convenience of being able to lock, unlock, and start your car from anywhere. That and the additional features with the drone mobile is such a game changer. Wait for the daily deals to strike to avoid paying regular price. Be a Total Tech Member for the lowest price possible. You won't regret it. Fast installation as well.

Everything is working as stated. The Best Buy technician named by Kevin P. at the Ann Arbor, MI installer did excellent job. He explained everything how this remote starter kit along with Drone kit works.
I would buy this product again and highly recommend others to buy this kit...

This has been a great remote starter. I got this for my 2007 Toyota Camry LE. I really enjoy using it. I've had it now for 2 winters, and I don't regret getting it.

Works like a charm. Got it when it was on sale for half the price and installation was free. Was concerned at first when scheduling the installation as it stated that it would cost $120 for that but took it in and got it done for free with the purchase. Only bummed out it took 2 months to get an appointment.

This is an amazing addition to my vehicle. I am able to remote start, and walk in a nice and warm car on a winter morning.
This device works with LTE signal, some areas with weak coverage doesn't start with the app - however, starting with the remote is always a success.

I couldnt be more happy with this product, as well as the professional installation. I have installed auto start equipment on my cars before and when talking to the technician who installed it, I found that he not only knows what he's doing but he understands how it works and why.

This system works perfectly. Always starts, responds rapidly and its very efficient. Love that we can remote start our car from far. Also, the Best Buy Install team was wonderful. Eveything was well explained afterward and no messes left.

So far this has met all of my expectations. If you have never had a remote start before trust me when I tell you you are going to want 2-way remotes at a bare minimum. The ability to start your car with your phone is an added bonus that you will definitely enjoy. If you pay for 5 years upfront the cost for the basic functions, (start, lock, unlock) is $3 a month. Well worth it in my opinion. Install was handled very well by Best Buy. This is a very nice system so far.

It works really well in a Ford Escape! Recommended if you have your car parked far away from home! And the app works really great!
