    Works great at starting the car remotely, although we haven't used the phone app. It's very convenient that we can use the original FOB for the car and hit the lock three times to start it, not needing to add the additional remote that came with the system. Be sure to let the installer know ahead of time how long you would like the auto shut-off to be set for as the standard 10 minutes may be too short.

    Although technicians put enough time to install and no problem with the installation, however the product doesn’t work even It claim to have 150 feet of a range to operate through the mobile app but it it doesn’t work on with the 10 feet of a distance and the key fob programmed it often confuse, and that is like absolutely no way of knowing if the car has started or not Not happy

    So far the starter has worked as advertised. The one negative is the Bluetooth range. It is awful. Viper claims “up to 150’”. It doesn’t come close to that. Maybe 20 ft at best. Very disappointing. I’ll probably add the SmartStart option later. Maybe that’s why they made to Bluetooth so bad. To sell more add ons. Other than that, should work as expected.

My wife and I are very happy with our pushase!

    I love this remote start. They value of this remote starter is tremendous when you factor in the included installation. The range is not amazing but if your looking to warm your car from your front door or apartment this should do the trick.
