Customers are saying

Customers are impressed with the overall performance, security features, and keyless entry provided by the Non-Remote Start 1 Way Security System. However, some customers have noted concerns regarding the sensitivity and alarm volume of the system. Some customers have stated that the alarm is not sensitive enough, and it does not sound the vehicle horn. Overall, the security system provides great value, but it may not meet everyone's expectations.

    Viper is a well known brand for car security system. We also purchased a window shock detector device along with this set for installation. The installation only takes an hour and half. And it doesn't interfere with my existing sound system. Steve-O is very patient and professional.

    alarm systems do way more than just go off when your doors are tampered with. Today's alarms disable fuel systems and ignitions as well as control door locks and lights. If anything comes loose while driving it could be a disaster. If I had known it could leave me stranded I may have decided against it. But with multiple break-ins I didnt do much research. Best Buy went out of their way to make sure I was happy and safe in the end.

    Works well. I can lock or unlock the car silently if I want to, which is a great feature. The fob is a little different than what is pictured for the product - and I actually like it more. But you could always check with the store before buying in case you might not like it. The install process was great and the crew was really nice.

    I had trouble once when I unlocked the car and the front doors would not unlock and it took me a couple of minutes to get the car to unlock the front doors. Other then that I have had no problem

    I picked this alarm for the price and what it can do. I like that it can integrate into my vehicles harness. The remote is light not heavy like some others. I feel better having it.

    Works as advertised. No complaints. Competent Geek Squad install techs had no problem with the install. It’s a great deal with the installation included.

    After only a year the alarm malfunctioned. It wouldn’t turn off and I couldn’t turn on the car. Every electrical component dead. It ended up costing me a trip to the dealership to get it removed. Not including the tow truck there. A waste of time and money. If you do end up getting it, get it installed somewhere else.

    Awful customer service

    Product not the problem. Bad installation and customer service was. First installer gives me the car back and the blinking blue light that signifies the alarm is on never goes off. So night driving was like a 70s disco party unless you have siezures. In addition to the incorrect install, literally the only information given to me about the system is "these are the only 2 button that work, unlock or press lock 2 times to arm"... this was incorrect, but more importantly an entire alarm/keyless entry system was installed and NOBODY went over the installation options or preferences. 2nd installer, after accusing me of being the reason the light wouldnt turn off, fixes the issue.. which turned out to be that the ignition wire was not included in the first job.. so now, light turns off when it should, but my car automarically locks and unlocks every time i start the car. As a sales supervisor for a fortune 100 company, i can guarantee you that NOBODY that worked for me would be installing something with over 30 installation configurations, AND NEVER ASKING THE CUSTOMER WHAT THEIR PREFERENCE IS.. bad install, poorly ran operation. Never again.
