Is remote start Good Or Not

I heard they have some type of draw-back on remote start, that your car could still be taking when u remote start your car, is that true

huh not in most. In most current cars in order for you to shift out of gear you have to press the brake pedal. On all RS as soon as the brake pedal is pressed the RS will shut down."Big" Mike

remember to check all your wires with a dmm not a test light!!

i take no responsibilty whatsoever for the vailidty of the info nor consequences thereof

So if they cut the brake what happens

Its still kinda hard to shift without the key. The steering column remains locked until the key is used Some systems will also shut down the remote start when the RPM's get too high. A remote start can make it a little easier for certain people to steal your car. But those are the same people that could steal your car anyways. Not something I would worry about.

It's good and safe.  Keep it real.

and they wont get far not being able to turn the locked steering wheel
