(More customer reviews)I have run this alarm on my Expedition for the last 4 years. It is true that these remotes require some extra care, they provide you with a wealth of knowledge about your vehicle's situation while you are indoors.
Compatible only with top of the line D.E.I. alarms (Viper included). This 2 WAY remote let's me know that commands I have sent have been received. It alleviates a lot of guesswork. At a glance, I know if my doors are locked/unlocked, if the car is running (remote start) or not. If the alarm is triggered, it even shows me the zone that was triggered when the alarm was tripped (it actually shows which door/window has been opened/broken, or if the car was hit).
I too have bought replacement remotes for this alram, but I knew what I was getting into when I bought it from the start.
For those of you who don't need the 2-way function, its important to know that you can program one-way remotes (much less expensive) to work with the alarm brain too. I strongly suggest having extra remotes for every alarm. You should also know to locate your valet button in case you have to bypass the alarm without a (working) remote.
When you drop a computer, its a roll of the dice if it will keep working, or not. I've run this alarm for 4 years, drop my keys regularly, and have only needed to replace two remotes.
I too have found customer service to be a joke at DEI, and had to solve the problem on my own. But the alarm itself is great!
Hope this helps!
