Frequently asked questions

Can a locksmith replace a smart key, or do I need the dealer?

An auto locksmith can supply and program most smart keys on-site, often faster and cheaper than the dealer.

What if I lost the only smart key I had?

It's still doable — the locksmith generates a new fob from your VIN and programs it to the car, though it takes a bit longer.
