Remote start that operates through the internet is a terrible idea, you're telling the app to send a command to the LTE modem in the car that then sends the command to the CANBUS, if the remote start service ever gets exploited, you can bet your ass the hackers will figure out how to send CAN commands beyond just turning the ignition on, nothing in the CANBUS protocol allows for restricting access to specific equipment.
