2020-2022 Ford Escape Remote Start Features

“Jump into a warm interior with a defrosted windshield every winter morning using your existing Ford keyless entry remote or cool it down on those hot afternoons after it's been parked out in the sun for hours.”

  Just leave your climate controls on the setting where you need them when parking your vehicle, and the system will automatically turn them on shortly after you activate the remote starter system.
• 15-Minute Remote Start Run Time
  The remote starter system will automatically turn off after 15 minutes.

• Active Keyless Entry
  You won't lose your ability to remotely unlock the vehicle's doors while it's running by the remote starter, so you won't have to use the key to get into the vehicle.

  You can shut down the remote starter sooner the same way you activated it.
• Long-Range Remotes Upgradeable
  Want 4X more range than what your Ford factory remotes provide? No problem. Plug-in upgrade this system with any set of Viper D-Series long-range remote kits any time during or after installation (not included, sold separately).

Lifetime Warranty

• The automotive aftermarket industry’s best warranty
  Providing the highest quality components in the industry means you can provide the best warranty coverage; though it's highly unlikely you would ever need warranty service for a Directed® system, in the rare event once one of our techs confirms a component failure, we will email you a prepaid return shipping label for the part we are replacing at no expense to you; all replacement costs are covered under your warranty for the lifetime of the vehicle in which the system was originally installed. Limitations and exclusions apply; non-transferable
