Key Features
Fit for Your Ford
Compustar remote starters work by utilizing vehicle-specific firmware to speak directly with your Ford vehicle's internal computer. This powerful connection allows you to remotely control your Ford car or truck's factory features from the Compustar remote.
• Arm your vehicle's OEM alarm
• Control your vehicle's heated mirrors (if available)
• Pop your trunk
• Monitor your hood, door, and trunk status on DroneMobile
Remotes Built Tough
Compustar offers durable and water-resistant remotes that are built for all weather conditions. Wherever your Ford takes you, your Compustar remote starter will be at your side.
#1 Remote Start App
DroneMobile is the award-winning smartphone app rated 4.5+ Stars in the App Store and Google Play. This App connects your Compustar remote starter to your smartphone over LTE, with the added benefit of GPS tracking.
In the U.S.A., all 2-way remote starters come with DroneMobile hardware included. To add DroneMobile to an existing Compustar system, purchase a Drone X1 module at one of our Authorized Dealers today!
Ford Remote Start Reviews
Outstanding product
LOVE this remote start! Purchased as a gift for a Ford F150 and it's about the best on the market. Installation was amazing, super easy, and fast. Does it get any better than that?! Just a great purchase, would do it again in a minute.

Frequently Asked Questions
Where can I purchase and install a remote starter for my Ford?
I don't see my Ford model or model year listed. Is it compatible with Compustar remote start?
Can I use my Ford's factory remote to start my car?
Will adding a remote start void my Ford's factory warranty?
Can I add Compustar remotes or DroneMoible to my Ford's factory remote starter?
What is a Control Module?
The control module is the device that is installed inside your vehicle and adds remote start functionality.
Does it matter which Compustar Control Module I purchase?
In most cases, no. All of our control modules are built with high-quality components and go through rigorous testing to provide the best remote start experience for you and your vehicle.
For certain vehicles, such as manual-transmissions, diesels, or European makes, your installer will need to use a specific control module to ensure seamless integration with your vehicle.
What is "Factory Fit Installation?"
Compustar offers "factory fit" installation t-harnesses that have factory-style connectors that plug right into your vehicle.
While "factory fit" t-harnesses greatly streamline installation, you should still trust a professional with your remote start install. Learn more about t-harnesses here.
