Totally disappointed
||Posted . Owned for 1 month when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.It didn’t work out for me because the guy who was supposed to install it for free:quit 2 weeks before my Jan 9 install appointment and I wasn’t told till I shipped up for my installation appointment so I’m very disappointed and frustrated so I got my money back … so it wasn’t the Best Buy for me wish I had never heard about it now

Not impressed
||Posted . Owned for 1 month when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Not impressed. It starts when it wants. I go outside on break and it's already started like it starts by itself I'm going to see if they can fix it because I can't deal with that I can't get the app working

Not as advertised
||Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.They advertise 150 foot range for the Bluetooth app. Does not come close, even a Best Buy employee told me after I called to ask for help that the real range is about 40 feet max. It does start the car but the range is not good. Cheaper options out there that do just as good of a job

No one at store can install
||Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.I purchased it on Black Friday special with the installation included and I had to make an appointment after I got the remote start in and still cannot get it installed.. I have an appointment at another best buy that's 2 hours away because the store and Cape Girardeau Missouri does not have someone that can install it. Trying to contact Best Buy's customer service was one of the worst experiences I've had the people at their home office don't want to talk to me don't want to help couldn't understand what I was trying to say and left me the impression that did not care I still plan to have them install it whenever they can get around to it someday but I may give up and have to get a refund and get it done somewhere else not sure yet just wish they cared..

Beware of possible future issues
||Posted . Owned for 5 months when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Don’t do it. Purchased remote start on my suv and it caused my vehicle’s computer system to stop communicating. I didn’t know what was wrong, took it to a car mechanic who specializes in electrical issues and $823 later I found out they had to pull it out for my car to vehicle to start back working properly. Tried to go to Best Buy to rectify and still no help or resolution.
