I had my dealer order and install the Ford Remote Access kit and the required Vehicle Security System before I picked up my 2015 F450. In a nutshell it lets you lock, unlock, and remote start your truck from your smartphone running Android or the iPhone iOS. I was a little skeptical but having played with it is cool as heck. You can actually set it to remote start and run your vehicle for up to 30 minutes uninterrupted. (Think cold winter days covered in ice). Essentially if your vehicle and phone has a cell signal or WiFi signal it will unlock it from anywhere. I tried starting it while at work 70 miles away, wife said it started right up in about 10 seconds, could lock and unlock the doors, shut it off etc. Dealership never installed one before so they struggled with the technology but I was able to help them on the initial computer end and all went quickly after that. The service through SpinDance is $50 a year which I think would be a bargain if someone locked them selves out and you could unlock it most anywhere from most anywhere. This is also tied in to the security system can send text messages to your phone from break in / accident event with GPS location of vehicle which can be forwarded to authorities. I believe it works on all 2011 and newer SuperDuty pickups. My little review I give it a big thumb up Part #'s and pricing: Remote Access Part # DL3Z-19A390-B MSRP $385.71 Vehicle Security System Part # DL3Z-19A361-A MSRP $198.57
