Not anymore, I worked at a custom audio/remote start place for about 4 years, and after a year at Worst Buy I had enough.
If you're going to get it done at a best buy though, the guys at the Minnetonka store (accross from the Mazaratti (SP?) dealership) are excellent. They do high quality work, and they do it quick. That's the only store I would trust.

No, they dont. I had to deal with a lot of dumbass dealerships that would blame everything on the remote start. I would remove everything for them, and then look! all of the problems are still there! Viper units for example are high quality and hardly ever fail. If something isn't working properly, it's an installation issue and not a hardware issue.
OEM remote starts are kind of a joke. They'll get the job done, but that's like comparing a Nokia from 1999 and an iphone/droid. They'll both do the main task, but one will have a lot more options/expandibility/uses.
