More details to this question:
I had remote start installed by a consumer electronics company in my truck which has manual transmission. It was able to be started recently at airport while in gear and ran itself into a wall causing $4000 in damage to vehicle. Fortunately no one was hurt and not other damage to anything else. Do I have a case against the company that installed it?

You will need to review the paperwork for the installation work, there is probably a warranty provided in the fine print which may provide you the basis for a claim. If not, you can still bring a claim for breach of contract for failure to install an operable and safe device. This is the type of claim for which small claims court is a perfect venue - you can avoid attorney's fees and represent yourself, and resolve the matter much more quickly.
