Yes, the 2017 Ford Focus SE can be equipped with a remote start system that allows you to turn on the ignition from up to 300 feet away. The remote start button is located on your key fob transmitter, and it allows you to start your engine without ever entering the vehicle. If your vehicle has automatic climate control, you can configure it to begin operating when you remote start your vehicle. You can also remotely start your Ford Focus with your Apple or Android mobile device by downloading the FordPass app from Google Play or the App Store. It’s important to note that many states and provinces have restrictions on the use of remote start, so it’s advisable to check your local and state or provincial laws for specific requirements regarding remote start usage.

Once you’ve found the remote start button on your key fob, you can start your vehicle remotely by first pressing the lock button to lock your car before starting the engine for safety and security purposes.
