Mine is an Excalibur, installed aftermarket by an auto electronics place that specializes in those too-loud radio outfits. I don't mess with my adjustable steering wheel either, but invasive service types are liable to, they are fond of misadjusting my seat. So better check the starter function when get car back from service. Also I try to always set the starter to maintenance mode so it doesn't start accidentally with mechanic's head under the hood. The starter I had on my 2000 Corolla had an interlock switch that defeated starter when hood was open, but the new one was installed more cheaply and didn't include one. The 09 seems to come up to temp faster than the 2000. But my typical winter morning starts are for a 1.5 mile drive, so an auto start is still a good idea.
