UPDATE...The Honda dealer took out the aftermarket remote and put in the HONDA remote...now we are noticing some problems...
First, the seatbelt alarm which use to sound when taking off seatbelt before actually parking the car no longer sounds...
Second, my son could not open the back doors on either side...we did NOT put on a child lock.
The Dealership was not very freindly and helpful in replacing the remote start with the HONDA remote start and we do not want to deal with them again...
Should we take to another dealer since technically car is under warranty?
Why would we have these problems now?

Hahahahahaha. Is remote start really worth all this? You asked for it, IMO. Now deal with it.

It's just ridiculous grad. People are never satisfied with the car they purchased. They have to add unnecessary gadgets, and then  when it creates problems. Stop the insanity! The immobilizer system and remote start are just not meant to be together. To use a remote start, you have to defeat the immobilizer, then you have to create another security system. It's a tangled web.

If the immobilizer system and remote start should not go together then maybe we should be asking Honda why it is being offered under Honda brand for a vehicle that has built-in immobilizer.

Here is the problem..We ordered the remote start as an accessory to our 2008 Honda Accord...'thinking' we were getting the HONDA remote start...and why we would we think anything else..since it is listed on the pamphlet along with all the other accessories avail for the new Honda...But the dealer gave us the aftermarket brand...CHARGING us FULL price as if we recvd the HONDA remote. We did not realize that we got ripped off until after taking delivery of the car, then we saw the difference...Dealer told us they need not need to "cut" any wires when installing the code-alarm which is why your IMMOBILIZING system would be jeapordized..but now we think that may have been a lie as well...But what I was hoping for from these boards was some good advice at this point as to how to handle this...

If the dealership service screwed it up, they should have to fix it. Whatever you do, don't bring it somewhere else, so they have someone else to blame.

Hi Viet,
I bought the moldings online from the Honda estore which is part of the Honda Owner link. This is a pretty good way to buy genuine Honda accessories, but I heard you may get a better deal on ebay. Here is the link: https://www.ahm-ownerlink.com/login.asp?brand=honda

The cargo hooks are a pain in the ass to install yourself because you need a rivet nut tool that fits the rivet nut that comes with the part. I have not located that tool yet, but haven't looked that hard.
