Apparently this applies to the remote start option you PAID FOR when you bought the car but to use it you have to cough up $8 a month. Personally I have never trusted remote start since the simple encryption can be defeated and your car stolen. Now they are putting out an app so you can start your car from your phone. Again, bad idea for those whom have a security mindset.

What's wrong with the key? All my cars use old fashioned keys.

I won't trust it either. I don't want a new Toyota until my current truck dies, which should be about 15-20 years.

Just saying, it's a business decision and the media is not telling the whole story, regardless of what you'd rather do.

Yeah I agree with you this looks like people are complaining about having to pay for a service that didn’t even exist before, it’s not like you can’t get standard local remote starters.
