    Having some issues with the factory installed remote start 2010 prius III.

    Here's what's happening:
    Remote start works great - until the outside temp gets below 5 degrees or so...then the car starts - then shuts down immediately. I sit in the car with the fob and the car starts up and stays running as normal.
    Took it to my dealer today, and they couldn't recreate the problem.

    Anybody else experience this?

    A very common problem at low temperatures. There extensive threads about the same circumstances, do a search on PC

    Wow - super lame Toyota!
    It is currently -15 degrees at my house, and I sure wish I could remote start my car like everybody else!
    Lame!
