    I've had autostart on my nissan rogue 2015 for almost a year now. It works exactly as it should. I can easily turn my car on from my building to the opposite side of the parking lot. Receiving feedback to know that it worked is an ease of mind kind of thing. It was the best present I got myself and my aging car. As an added: Best Buy staff made the decision really easy and were knowledgeable about what I needed.

    This was a great addition to our 2020 RDX. Dealer wanted $750 to add the remote start. Best Buy instal was great, and the ability to start with my standard key-fobmakes this a seamless feature. No more getting into a hot or freezing car.

    The product works great with 2020 Kia Sorento. It even allows my Keyfob to work with the remote start. The people who did the installation completed it within an hour from when I dropped it off, and were very friendly and knowledgeable about the product.

    Purchased this as a gift for my cousin because her cat didn’t have CarPlay. I waited for her to really use this before writing a review and so far, she’s been in love with how responsive it is, and how it takes her Nissan from a 2012 to a 2024. The screen is pretty big for the price and it’s really easy to get a backup camera connected (additional purchase) when you install this system.

    Had it a little over a week and so far so good. The installation was easy and it works as expected, what not could I ask for? It was a pleasant surprise that I could start the car with my factory remote. It is a little pricy if it is not on sale, in my opinion, but it seems to go on sale every few months.

    Initially I was skeptical on getting the install done from Best Buy. I was not sure if they are going to do the job correctly. However, after getting the free installation deal, I jumped to it and had it done. It's best buy what can go wrong. The install takes about 2 hours, so you'll need to figure out what to do while waiting. The rep that helped us was very friendly and completed the estimated installation on time. The remote start works great! Now we dont have to wait in the cold for the car to warm up. Since its 2 - way remote start, we know if the car started. Ill definitely get this again for my other car.

    I bought this Compustar 2-way remote start system for my 2015 Ram 1500. I had it installed by Best Buy. I love it! It has great range and is easy to use. I use it almost every day and it works perfectly.

    I love this kit and installation was easy to schedule through Bestbuy.com. The techs were nice and completed the job quickly and efficiently. I love starting the car remotely, but what is even better is that the remote beeps 3 times to let me know the car has started.

    Excellent remote, long range and works every time. when the car is out of sight the the remotes tones let you know it was successful and the light continues to show you how much time is left. Installation was great, finished on time, staff was courteous and demonstrated the features when I picked up my car.

    Absolutely worth every dollar. The drone mobile app with yearly subscription is great, especially in the cold winter months. Using Siri to start my car is cool and convenient. Unlimited range via cellular service unlike the cheap OEM remote starts.

    I love how simple it is. The buttons makes sense and it literally takes less than a minute to learn. Installation took an hour and a half or less. The only problem is I was told I wouldn’t need the original fob but turns out I have to use it to keep the car running. Other than that, the remote start has been amazing.

    I don't know how I waited so-o long for this! It is worth the investment to purchase and add to your car. Saves me so much time in the morning to quick start my car and warming it up. One of the features is that it is a 2way, which notifies you when it starts ... I'm happy with this brand and its performance.

    I always wanted remote start for my vehicles but always put it off. I am so glad I did and love to see how far I am from the car and get the indication from the key fob that the car is started. I was always envious of people when they would start their car right next to me. But envious no more!!!! Get this one and you will LOVE IT!!!!

    COMPUSTAR remote start

    I purchased this remote start for my car and all I can say is WOW! Having a warm car in this artic frigid blast winter is a blessing. It was well worth the price when I purchased my remote start. Although when I bought it all the local Best Buy stores had a long free install wait, Compustar remote was the best purchase I made. It has outstanding range and comes with 2 remotes. One of the remotes even has lights to let you know that when you have your car started and that's an excellent feature knowing that your car is warming/cooling depending on the season. COMPUSTAR is #1 in my book!
