    I have had Viper Remote Starters for over 20 years as I don't have a garage. They are great and guaranteed as long as you have the car.

    The sales people were great. My experience shopping in store was a good one. Made my purchase , and was given an appointment date that was a month away. The BB app stated that I had to pick up my items by a certain date that was three days after my install appointment. My install appointment was on Feb. 22nd at 11am. On Feb. 21st at 10pm just 13 hours before my appointment time, I received an email stating that my appointment has been cancelled. I tried calling BestBuy , but they close at 9pm. I tried rescheduling immediately after I received the cancellation email , but I couldn’t because it was after store hours. Two weeks prior to my install appointment , the BestBuy installer called me , and told me what to expect. That the install was going to take 5 hours. I live 40 minutes away from this BestBuy , so I had to make preparations from work , securing a ride , and preparing my car for the installer. It’s now March 5th , and this , “rate your experience “ is the only follow up I have received from BestBuy since they cancelled my appointment. And my items were cancelled because I didn’t pick them up. Sure , I can pick up the items and install them somewhere else , but the install came with the purchase. If I install it somewhere else those installers will hold my feet to the flame when it comes to cost since I didn’t purchase the alarm from them. How many stars would you give this experience? This is my first time purchasing from BestBuy in over 10 years , and I’ve been smh the entire time I’ve been writing this review

    The sequence on how to push the button to start the car could have a better notification my car has started. And the blue light that stays on inside the car had known to make my battery die

    This works as expected, although doesn’t have the best range. Also don’t bother with the application because it will constantly Required to Reconnect the device. Very annoying.
