who told you that?? Cause you should kick his or her arse!!
If anything, a remote starter will help your car..
here's why.
To keep it simple I've used simple and concepts..
When you start your car with the key this is what happens -- you turn the key *start position* -- the starter motor is activated -- starter motor cranks the engine -- engine fires up. But we are only human, and well our senses arent super hyper fast, so there is a short time laps at which you'll still be holding the key in the *start engine* postions, and the car is already started. This of course puts a lot of stress on the starter motor.
When you start your car with a remote starter, the problem described above virtullay disappears..
Plus 90% of remote starters come with functions that'll save you if you live in a place where it gets cold.. (example : starts your car every 3.5 hours and lets it run for 10 mins, when its below 25°C --on mine its fully programmable.)
