    Second car installed with this remote start and this was way better then the first. It only took them an hour compared to 6 hours on my last car. If you have a XV Crosstrek don’t go factory remote, go Best Buy.

    TWO WAY FOB IS LONG RANGE PEACE OF MIND

    Viper's product is flawless, works every time. But when it shines is when you have the larger, two way fob. The small 1 button fob is short range and 1 way- you tell the system, it does it, or not, depending on the range. but the two way fob is twice the range. mine reaches from the checkout line inside Walmart far right side, to the parking space farthest left and all the way to edge of road. But the system then sends the 2 way fob signal when started, then monitors, and alerts you when you reach auto shutdown point.

    This remote start is great for the price. It is very easy to use and pairs with our original car key. It also gives you the option to use your phone to start your car for an extra price.

    Absolutely loved this starter when I got it, although I ordered the wrong type, was disappointed that I did my research wrong and ordered one that shuts my car off when I open the doors. But after the first few months I have had nothing but problems. The app kept disconnecting me from my vehicle then would keep logging me out completely. I went in for a “restart” of the product which didn’t work and ended up having to have a whole other device installed, which luckily was for free. Since then I am still having issues. My app only connects to my car once in a while and now the fob picks and chooses when it wants to connect as well. When it works it’s great but I would not recommend this product. I also don’t feel like it’s great for my car to go through the rough stop when opening the doors.

    There were a few reason I chose this unit, price was among them but what really sold me was that I could use the factory remote, without a second fob, just hit the lock button three times. I don't understand why the OEM can't make something so simple.

    Its been over 2 years, coming up on 3 soon, and the remote start has still been one of the best purchases I've made in awhile! Thinking about getting one for my Uncle and my Grandparents soon (they have been jealous of my car since I got this product xD) Also the guy at Best buy who did the Install for me was super chill and I hope he's doing ok since I seen him last

    Living in northern Minnesota - like, closer to Canada than Minneapolis- a car starter is just about a necessity. Technically, I could walk out and start my car. But, that sucks. I love that the remote is quite small, much less bulky than my car key! My car key has the door lock remote built into it so I didn’t want or need that function on the starter. The range is great, I don’t have to have a direct line of sight in order for it to work. I can press the button anywhere in my house and it starts right up. Highly recommend!

    Very satisfied with the product. Easy to use and works pretty efficient. I do recommend upgrading your keypad if looking a decent range.
