Five Mistakes People Make When Buying A Remote Start System

September 12, 2017 By staff Leave a Comment

Buying A Remote Start SystemBuying a remote start system from Westminster Speed and Sound near Baltimore is one of the best additions you can make to a vehicle. Unfortunately, not all retailers share our thought process on designing and installing remote starter systems. Let’s look at the top five mistakes consumers make when buying remote starters.

1. Choosing the Least Expensive Installer

Your friend, neighbor or uncle likely doesn’t have the tools and experience required to work on modern vehicles. One wrong wiring connection can instantly cause thousands of dollars in damage. When we agree to work on your vehicle, you can be confident that our training, experience and processes ensure that the vehicle and the equipment we install will function reliably for years to come. We may not be the least expensive solution, but you can be confident that your vehicle is in good hands.

2. Not Buying Enough Range

While we prefer to discuss remote starter range in terms of performance levels, the importance of not shortchanging yourself remains the same. If you park far away from where you live or work, be sure to get a remote with enough power to allow it to start your vehicle when you push the button. Our staff will help you get the performance you need.

3. Buying an Inexpensive Remote Starter

Cheap starters often don’t have safety protocols that make sure your car won’t start on its own or when in gear. Inexpensive starters are manufactured with components that don’t have the temperature tolerance of a premium solution, and that reduces their reliability. We have chosen the remote starters we sell because they are dependable and eliminate headaches down the road.

4. Buying a Remote Start System That is Missing Features

Buying A Remote Start SystemThe premium remote starters we offer include advanced programming options to maximize vehicle compatibility. For example, some cars’ security systems must be disarmed during the starting process, then re-armed to keep your vehicle safe. Our remote starter solutions provide all the convenience features our clients expect while making our job of integrating them into your vehicle efficient and reliable.

5. Buying at One Place Getting Installation at Another

Quite simply, our goal is to provide our clients with the best customer service experience possible. We don’t install remote starters that were not purchased from us. We are not familiar with the wiring, programming and features of other brands. These differences waste time and can create headaches – all of which detract from your purchase experience.
