    Bestbuy had this on their daily deal when I got it for less than $250. During installation I got charged extra $69 for the T-Harmess which was already included in the package. This product required you to stand right next to it to start. You have to be in the line of the sight for both the remote and app to start any functions. I personally don’t recommend this but if you want to give it a shot go ahead.

    This has to be the biggest piece of crap it works from 10 foot away. Yes I have replaced batteries and still have to stand arm out front door and press three times before it finds car. I would not recommend this piece of crap for the money. And Best Buy install was very incompetent at answering any questions also but it is Best Buy.

    love the system but have had multiple problems due to installation. crossed a wire in my wife's jeep and burned it up. her headlights actually went out and could have killed someone because the crossed wire melted the headlight/turn signal switch.had to bring it back at least twice to get it fixed. now my truck stopped working after only a few months. still waiting to get appointment to get fixed. nice when it works.
