    Works great. Installation was fast with Best Buy and the app is handy to warm up my car before I go outside.

    Answering phones must be an option. Once you can talk to someone, then sent elsewhere, and can actually talk to someone who knows something all is good

    I got a package deal on this system. I like the options. It can be programmed with the factory keys, has an additional fab, and works with our phones w the bluetooth app. We like it a lot so far.

    The Viper remote is a great product! It has worked out well for me. The only thing is the phone app doesn't have much range.

    Beware!! DS4+ remote start

    Not very happy with this unit so far. A large portion of toyota, lexus, etc cannot use the factory remote to remote start as advertised (so you will have to purchase an expensive remote or use the one button remote.) Bluetooth is very hard to connect and it is not reliable. So, if you want to use the app to lock, unlock, or start your car don't count on this feature. I was told by a voxx tech that I would probably need to have Bestbuy reset the module (he also said this may happen every so often, and that bestbuy would need to reset it each time.) I am going to try and have this unit pulled and either swap to a different brand or do without a remote start.

    I like it and I don't like it. I installed it because I wanted to be able to start my car from a mile away but it didn't happened and I wanted to be able to start my car from my phone but the app is not working unless you're next to your car. So the money I paid for the viper control wasn't worth it. It was a waste of money. I should have paid for the app I got with my car and I would have been happier but I thought I would have saved some money. At the end, I wouldn't suggest you to buy this product unless you want to start your car while you're next to it but what's the purpose when you are next to your car? Right? Not worth your money or time. The app is even so confusing to set up at the beginning, it took me and my son to figured it out how it works and it only works if you're next to your car, that's all.

    No real help at time of purchase. So many associates standing around and no-one offered help. No information on products provided. Would have gotten a different or additional add ons if provided quality service. Gentleman that installed AutoStart was great. The actual product itself do not like the remote that it came with or the fact get the phone app is very temperamental and starting the vehicle.
