When my wife bought a new Mazda, the dealer made her sign a form that said the remote start app would only be free for one year. He told her it was just boiler plate; the remote start app would be free forever. I knew when she bought the vehicle the remote start app would be a monthly charge starting in precisely one year. lol!
My parents have a car with remote start I've never been able to understand what the advantages are supposed to be. The only time that they've ever used it was when they first got it, and were playing with it.
I'm going to take a wild guess that you live somewhere that doesn't freeze. lol!
Kudos to you. Where we live, it's cold AF.
