A Woman’s Guide to Buying a Remote Starter

Purchasing a remote starter for your car is a big decision to make. As a busy woman, I want to know that I am making the right decision when I choose a facility to install my remote car starter.  When making this decision, you want to know some important factors that will apply.

Things to Consider When Buying a Remote Starter

• First of all, the technician who will be working on your vehicle is a key aspect. Your car is something you rely on every day. It’s how you get things done and how you get to where you need to go. As women, we often will also have our kids and others relying on us to get them to their destinations as well.  Here’s an interesting fact: The Commonwealth of Pennsylvania requires that someone who cuts your hair for as little as $15 is trained, certified and licensed to do so, but nothing is required for someone to remove the dash of your car and integrate a remote start system into it. That’s a scary thought when your car is worth much more than a haircut! You’ll be glad to know that all of the technicians at Enormis Mobile Specialties are required to have Mobile Electronics Certified Professional (MECP) certifications. That brings me peace of mind, knowing that the person operating on my car really knows what they’re doing.
• Another important factor is experience. You don’t want just anyone experimenting on your vehicle. You definitely don’t want any newcomers or part-time hires for the “busy seasons.” Enormis has an operations manager, Mike Macaluso, who is an electrical engineer. Understanding the fundamentals of electricity is just a part of who he is. Their three other technicians have been with them for years as well: Art for 16 years, Ken for 14 years and Chris for six years. They are experts who can be entrusted to work on your vehicle.
• Knowing that the technicians have the right tools is also an important part of making this decision. Of course, the techs need tools such as pliers, wire strippers, etc. All of the techs at Enormis have their own set of tools. More importantly, though, the techs at Enormis have tools that can’t fit inside a toolbox. Their shop is a member of ALLDATA, the leading provider of original manufacturers’ repair information.Enormis pays a monthly subscription to have this tool because they know it’s worth it. Most other shops do not have this added bonus. What does ALLDATA allow Enormis to do? If a technical issue arises, they can solve it within minutes, not hours or days.An example may look something like this: A remote starter technician could trigger one of the many trouble lights to come on in the dash of your car. Typically, the light won’t go out unless a dealership can fix it. This can cause major delays in your car being done. However, this is not a problem at Enormis because it is a dealer-level shop for GMC, Chevy, Buick, Pontiac, Dodge, Ford, Lincoln, Jeep and Chrysler.Enormis has chosen to spend thousands of dollars in hardware each year and will continue to do so to be able to do the same things that your new-car dealer can do. Getting you in and out of the door with your keys back in your hands to continue with your busy schedule is something they value. Those are some useful tools!

• You’re also going to want a shop with expertise. Would you go to a shoe store to get a facial? I’d hope not! That’s why, when purchasing a remote starter, you want a shop that specializes in the electrical systems found in motor vehicles. Enormis Mobile Specialties is not a car stereo store, which is why you don’t see the words audio or stereo appear in their name. Of course, they can install a CD player in your dash, but that’s not their specialty. Their expertise is in knowing the delicate, yet sophisticated, electrical system in your car. No corners will be cut. Enormis Mobile Specialties are the true remote starter experts of Erie, PA.
