Reasons to Have Remote Start
Comfort
The biggest benefit of a remote starter is the comfort of having a
car that is warm or cool before you get in. By leaving the heater or
air conditioning in the "On" position, a driver can activate the remote
starter then wait several minutes, during which time the climate control
runs. Because the car is operating without the keys in the ignition or
the driver present, most remote starters also include controls for
locking the doors to secure the car remotely.
Safety
There is also a safety benefit to having a remote starter. By
allowing an icy car to warm up before driving, it is
easier to scrape or defrost the windows, resulting in greater visibility
for the driver. Warming the car also melts snow and ice that can
obstruct the headlights or brake lights, making your car more visible to
other drivers, especially in snowy conditions.
Engine Care
Warming the car, before driving, is also beneficial for the
engine. For the car's climate control system to start producing warm air, the engine must first warm up as it runs.
Because the car idles for several minutes before being driven, the
engine oil becomes more viscous and provides better lubrication once the
driver is ready to go. This warm up period is especially beneficial for
cars or trucks with diesel engines, but gas engines also benefit from
this feature.
Resale Value
A remote starter also increases the resale value of your car,
especially if you live in an area with extreme climate conditions. While
it may not be as important as the car's overall condition or mileage,
it can still be a useful selling point or a reason to demand more value
for a trade-in at a dealership.

vehicle is in range of a GSM cellular signal and your phone has a 3G or Wi-Fi
signal, SmartStart will work.
