    I purchased this on black Friday to try out on my truck and my only regret is I didn't buy one for my SUV! This thing works amazingly. BB did the install in a couple of hours and everything turned out perfectly.

    I'm so happy I bought this remote starter for my car. My biggest problem is remembering that I can use it to start my car before I leave work lol .. I remember in the morning before I'm leaving my house and it's so nice getting in an already cool car because my air is on. I originally wanted it for the cold winter days but with the heat of summer it's working nice for the cooling also.. now to remember to click a few minutes before I'm done with my work day.

    Works great. Bought on sale and free install was offered at the time. Install was very easy to schedule and was done quickly. It only took about an hour. Very nice remote starter and good value.

    Had to wait a month to get it installed. Installation was pretty quick maybe 1-1.5h. The remote starter works great, even starts when we are inside the mall. Took us a while to figure it out but you can’t use the lock and unlock buttons UNLESS you start up your car first. So it wasn’t locking if your car turned off and etc. Kind of scary because the remote will say you locked the car but you didn’t. Sort of annoying because we still have to use the original remote as well as the remote starter just to unlock/lock the car even though the remote starter has all the buttons

    Had some issues with this unit pairing with my factory alarm on my Kia Optima SXL but they finally got it straightened out and all is well. Has great range and the 2 way remote helps when your not in eyesight of vehicle and it notifies you of startup and status of vehicle during remote start. Would recommend but get it on sale, I got mine for $229.

    Love having this installed in my car. It's so nice to let my car warm on cold mornings without having to go outside and start it myself. Nice having two remotes if needed. Works great. Installation took about 1 1/2 hours.

    I am so excited to have found this remote start that works great for 2018 Jeep Wrangler JL. I ordered this and made my appt with their geek Squad.It was installed free at Bestbuy! I had read on another review that it can work with the original Key that comes with the Jeep ( and it does! Another bonus), I don’t need to carry around the extra key fob. So far I’m Very happy I made this purchase. It was over $1000 Savings from what the dealership wanted to charge me to add remote start to my Jeep. Way to go… this was definitely a BestBuy!!

    We ended up with this device after purchasing a different brand that was less expensive. When the installer looked at the OP, he advised against it for what we needed and instead advised we get the Compustar. He was correct. Install went very well. The motor starts from inside a concrete building 4 stories up while the car is in the garage on the bottom floor. It has started from inside the elevator. It works great and pleased with everything. The price is a bit of a downside, but the product works well.

    I bought the Compustar remote car starter for my daughter who lives in a college dorm. It is a brilliant solution for those who keep a car outside. On flat terrain, it starts the car over a quarter mile. Best Buy installation was quick and flawless.

    Had this installed today at the Virginia Beach store, works great so far and I like that it comes with two remotes. Only reason for not giving 5 stars is that I wished I didn’t have to keep my original key fob with me on top of the remote start key fob in order for the vehicle to start/run.

    I bought this last month and had it installed in my 2016 Ford Escape. I am more than pleased with it as it alerts me that the vehicle has started and the ease of use is phenomenal. Highly recommend so much that I purchased one for my roommate as a Christmas gift.
