    Mine came with it. There is also an app you can get for your smartphone. It works sometimes.

    I'm pretty certain mine did not come with it.

    I'd ask the dealership if they can install it for you. Thought it will probably come with a hefty price tag.

    Most custom car audio shops should be able to put a remote start on your Renegade. Should just have to buy the remote start system and a bypass module to let the remote start system communicate with the Jeep. I will get back to this post on Monday for more specifics on what will be needed to give you some idea of what it could cost.

    Bypass module our shop uses is the ADS-ALCA by idatalink $109.99
    1 button Remote start is the Scytek A1.1 $99.95
    Labor to install is 1.5hrs $180
    these are the prices the shop here charges, other alternative would be the dealership

    Connect Access is what I use. There is quite a delay from when you send the request and when it starts 90 Sec to 3 Mins

    I believe it only works if you have the nav and not the 5 inch screen. Tried to use the app on mine but it doesn't do anything, I have non nav. Remote start works pretty far. A lot further than my old patriot
