Default Remote start options?

you should be aware that the remote starter on the 2017 ES 350 no longer is working. They switched from the 3G Tower to a 5G Tower and the 2017 is a 3G car. So you cannot start your car remotely. I've talked to three different dealers as well as the national customer support number. They said they are trying to find an aftermarket remote starter that could be used to install in the car since the one already there does not work anymore. Has anybody else come across this problem? It is true for all es 350s from 2017 and older. Anybody else found an aftermarket remote starter that you can buy and install so I can have the remote starter function working again in my car?

Wrong forum. This is 7Gen 2019 and forward. But yes 2017 and prior your wireless is gone. Same on my wife's 2017 RX.

Default Remote starter not working

Thanks for your response. I knew it was a 7th generation Lexus but I couldn't find a place to talk about a 2017. So I wrote into your site. So is there a solution to the problem? Since your wife's car has the same problem? Thanks
