However, some customers reported issues with compatibility and a few experienced problems with the alarm system and key fob. Concerns were also raised regarding the antenna and battery life in some cases.

    Had it installed at bestbuy north riverside location! They installer name was Paul, very nice guy, kept me informed about what’s goin on and if any problems arise, took care of them. He explained everything and answered all the question I had! I’m a very detailed guy so he explained it fully. Love the product, and can’t wait till winter comes(for once).

    Had this put on my 2000 Buick and it works fantastic, just as good as the viper that I put on another car. The installer did a great job and was very informative.

    So far so good. Got this on a great sale Best Buy was having. I've had it for about 2 weeks and I'm really enjoying the remote start. It has excellent range. I can start my truck from about 50yrds away through a metal building. Great for getting the truck warmed/cooled for the weather outside before I get there.

    It's a pretty good remote starter but the range seems to be exaggerated quite a bit. I barely get about a short blocks worth of distance. I do like that you can have it programmed to lock or unlock the car when you remote start it

    I use it everyday and it is very convenient. I'm having to force myself to remember that my car is not just manual anymore so that's a learning curve. Remote start works as expected but can be spotty at times depending on how far away you are. Comes with two remotes: one that makes a chime and one that is silent. The silver one makes sound and the black one does not. Don't ask me why but I mostly use the black one when I want to be discreet about starting my car up in a hurry. Make sure you hold the button long enough for it to signal to the car to start up. T-harness and all required parts came with the product and free installation. Technician has it installed in under two hours. Check which Best Buy does it though because not all of them install. Saved a ton when I got it on sale too, so LOOK FOR THE SALES

    Perfect for summer months, I can start my car from almost a mile away. And even chimes, and let me know that the car received the signal.

    Compustar has been working great for my Toyota Tundra. The installation done by Best Buy was quick on the day of installation, but it took more than a month to book an installation appointment.

    I haven’t had this installed for very long, but man has it made life a little more convenient. Install at Hoover, AL store (Russ) was very neat and clean. Works perfectly. This product has quite a few customizable auxiliary options, which is a HUGE bonus. I highly recommend if you’re in the market for a remote start system.

    I was browsing the internet and for some reason I went to Bestbuy to check for remote car starter. I saw this on sale for $299.99 with free installation so I grabbed it right away. After couple hours the price went back to $499.99.

    It works very well with my 2020 Mazda CX-5. I’d say it works 100% of the time unless you’re obviously too far away from the building.

    Great product. Installer was professional and thorough. Auto start plus ADD-ALRM Kit. Now my 1992 OBS Chevy has an alarm and auto start. Buy during sale Best 2-way alarm deal there is. Also picked up a Q9 Remote for true 2-way alarm setup.
