Well got it installed! They put in the wrong system......Was supposed to be the remote starter/alarm system/door remote on a six button fob......Got the remote starter on the seperate fob.......I am once again speechless, and left wondering what kind of mistake I made buying a Ford? It has been nothing but trouble from the start, I am sickened when I think of the money spent for this truck and the zero respect, responsibility, and ownership that the dealership takes for their mistakes and lousy customer service.
I had a verbal meltdown in the service department today and left with less then satisfactory results for this huge F$&K UP.
They also cut me an extra key because I didn't bring our other key and it wasn't programmed. Needless to say, not noticing until I got home that they cut the key wrong and it doesn't work. You may think it isn't a big deal but I live an hour away from the dealership and am down to one key until further notice.
I am pretty Jaded right now regarding my Ford Truck and the people I bought it from.

Wow man that is a bummer. It sounds like that dealership just has extremely poor customer service, i dunno what your options are but i would find a new dealership to use if u can. You should have just told them it is not the right remote starter u wanted and not paid for it, i mean dont pay for something u dont want. it was their bad and they could have taken the system out and then order the right one. Hopefully u still like the truck itself tho. Im almost in the same boat as u I only have one ford dealership in my small town and next closest one is 3 1/2 hrs away.

The 6-button is quite a bit more than that...based on the dealer. For example, the dealer I bought my truck from wanted $623 installed. I shopped around and got mine from a different dealer, installed for $421. One guy on here reported his dealer quoted him $1150 installed. So, the price is set by individual dealers.

My Viper 5901 has way more range than the Ford system, zoned alarm, 2 way paging, and they hooked up a tailgate switch (open tailgate = alram going off while armed) and ran an extra trailer door zone (plug in your trailer and if the trailer doors are opened it goes off) out to the rear of the bed for under $1000 cdn installed.
Ford in Calgary wanted $700 for their system. I'm happy with what I chose, works great and the range is unreal.

I believe this is the correct P/N 7W3Z-19G364-AA-F509 says it requies securilock kit #4 P/N 7L2Z-19G365-AA for install. I found it listed on
http://www.partscheap.com/Ford_F_150...64-aa-f509.htm
I'm researching and considering doing the install myself.
