    Crazy range (says up to 3,000 feet and I believe it after trying it), starts every time. Easy to program. The Best Buy installers were super helpful too.

    2023 Toyota Tundra Remote Start Install

    Installed on my 2023 Toyota Tundra Limited so that the truck no longer shuts off when opening the door after remote start. It was a success. However, the installer told me that I can no longer use the remote start on my OEM keyfob and can only use the remote start keyfob for starting the truck. Otherwise my OEM remote may desynchronize. Didn’t want to risk it, so let them program it that way. Otherwise works great if you’re okay giving up your OEM remote start function.

    Bought this on sale and had a Best Buy tech install it in my 2015 Lexus (since the older 3G network will be decommissioned this year and I will no longer be able to remote start my car with the Lexus Enform app). Works like a charm whether you're using the included remotes or combined with a DroneMobile LTE Module for remote starting my car from my phone or one of my connected smart assistants. This has been especially helpful for when I'm getting ready in the morning and when it is cold outside. I can simply remote start my car, let it heat up so that it is ready to go once I'm ready to leave the house. One side note for folks in a similar position like mine. This system, when installed, may use the cabling that exists from OEM remote starters. Like I mentioned, my Lexus could be remote started, but I had to use the Lexus Enform app to do it. Once this was installed, I could no longer use the app. Make sure to cancel or not renew your monthly subscription for those apps. Overall, it has been a great experience using this system and may use it in the future for other vehicles.

    I researched many remote starts and where to get it installed. This one sounded perfect and having BestBuy install it, it came with a life time warranty. I've never had one or a car that came with one so I decided to treat myself. I am overjoyed that I can get into a warm or cool car now! I tried to start it from half a block away and it worked! Just set you climate controlls the night before and youre all set!

    I had this installed on my 2005 GMC Sierra Denali. When I went for the install they told me the 3x factory remote option was not available for my make and model. I even reached out to compustar who makes it and they said it wasn't available. But when I tried it it still worked. I don't know where the disconnect is but it does work on this year model truck. I've been really pleased with it so far in the range is really good.

    I love my remote start. Works great from a distance and I love the chime that lets me know the car has successfully started. Now I just need something to remind me to leave the defrost on high the night before so the ice will actually melt without me having to to go outside and turn it on. Lol

    Bought this for one daughter’s car and it was great, so I bough another one for my other daughter. One was a Kia with a key start and the other was a Kia with a push button start. It was the deal on BB with installation included. I had to buy a wire harness but that was cheap and they did a great job installing it. I would recommend this as well as getting BB to install it. Keep your receipt, because BB will fix or replace it at any BB if they install it! The two way remote is the best. It beeps to let you know it is starting and lights and beeps to tell you it has started. With an older one we have, you never really know it started unless you can see the 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.

    We are pleased with our remote start system and especially glad we went with the longer range option. I’ve learned I can start my SUV in parking structures where shorter range versions don’t work. This will go in my next car, too.

    Works with my Late model Lexus (with Enform)

    My '17 Lexus RX requires a monthly plan to use the factory remote start, this is just wrong. The install took at little under 2 hours & the technician showed me how to use it. I tested the range, and I am able to start my car 3 blocks (on 2nd deck of a garage) away. I am so happy I bought one for my other car. Scheduling the install requires you to be flexible, but worth the wait! Newer ignition push start Lexus & Toyota shuts off when you open the door, my 2013 RX did the same with the factory remote start, I understand this is a security/safety feature. If you're on the fence, wait for it to go on sale, and buy it, you will not be disappointed!

    I purchased 2 of these systems on the "Deal of the day" & had the "Geek Squad" install them. They work GREAT. Locks/Unlocks the doors & opens my trunk. We are able to start the cars while in buildings etc. My prev. one was built into my Fob. Changed cars & I'm glad I went with this one.. 3000' !! ( little over 1/2 mile range ). thats a long way. Waiting for another sale to get 1 more. Ill keep this post updated from time to time.
