All 2018 and 2019's except GX have the 120 month (10 year) trial of Safety Connect and the fob Remote Start.

It should work on yours and any model. First make sure your windows and moonroof are closed, doors are locked. Then.... Push lock button on your remote 3 times then on the fourth time push and hold the lock button until your lights flash. Car should start.
