Works great!!!! I will never buy a vehicle without remote start. First place I called wouldn't install one in my Nissan. Called Nissan and they couldn't install one but told me about Best Buy installing remote starts So I called them and they could! The installer did a fantastic job and I'm so happy I can now start it from the house!

Works great, flawless install. We do prefer putting the remote on silent mode because it's very loud if it's not. Other than that, range is fantastic.

This remote start works flawlessly. It has a great range and feedback on whether or not the vehicle has started. The install was completed in less than hour. Highly recommended.

Best buy in Puyallup installed my remote start and they were AMAZING! Got this during the black friday sale so it was half off. ($250) and it came with free installation and i also didnt pay for the T-Harness, it came w it. Bought on Black Friday and got an appointment to get it installed first week of December. As soon as you buy this, get an appt immediately because Geek Squad's schedule is tight. Ive only had this for a couple weeks but so far so good. I live up north . Also on the 3rd floor of an apartment so coming down and starting my car when its 20 degrees outside in the morning is always a hassle. This has been extremely worth the money especially since I got it during the sale. Will recommend to friends and family.

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.

Never Scrape Your Windshield Again!

The system is relatively easy to use. Today was the first day I needed it and I was able to start my SUV from inside my warm dry house and have the windows cleaned by the time I went out to leave for work. This is my first remote starter and now I'm thinking I may never want to be without one. so nice to just get in my car on a cold wet morning and drive away without having to scrape the windshield. Now I just have to remember to leave the heat on Defrost/High. :)

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.

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.

Its great to start my car before work to warm it up in the winter months. It comes with a separate fob thats lightweight and simple to use. It has confirmation beeps to let you know it started successfully. The car remains locked while started. Installation was easy and took less than an hour. The associate was super helpful.

Got an appointment to get my truck in before winter got too bad and had the remote start put in. Things went really smooth. Kai the technician is awesome. I have had no problems with my truck started every time this winter even at -45 with the windchill even colder than that. Now I’m taking my truck in to get the alarm system add on for that remote start system. Hopefully everything goes smooth as the first time. I’m pretty sure it will . Hats off to you Kai. Very good job.

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 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!

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!

This works great with my 2008 Acura MDX the remote start feature as well as the keyless remote to open and unlock the doors and trunk on my suv my keys were no longer working that came with the car it was cheaper to install Than pay $250 to replace 1 key bc I got this on a really good sale under $200 with free installation so this was a perfect replacement for 2 keys I would strongly recommend
