Lifetime 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.

45-Day QC Performance Guarantee

• If within 45 days from the date of delivery you're not totally satisfied with the quality you received on delivery or performance after installation, just put everything back into the original box, send us an email, or give us a call, and one of our technicians will email you a prepaid return shipping label at no cost to you. You will receive a full 100% refund with no shipping deductions or restocking fees.

7 Days a Week Support

• Have any questions before, after, or in the middle of the installation? No problem. We have Ford remote start specialists on call 7 days a week.
