Start here
Contact a qualified automotive locksmith or dealer first. Keep ownership documents for the provider, not this website.
Our method
- Check the simplest cause.
- Compare a working spare when possible.
- Verify before ordering a replacement.
When every working key is gone, avoid buying random replacement fobs first. All-keys-lost situations often require verified vehicle ownership, key cutting, and programming specific to the vehicle.
Gather this first
- VIN
- Photo identification
- Proof of ownership/registration
- Exact vehicle year, make, model, and trim
- Your location and whether the vehicle can be accessed or moved
Who can help
Depending on the vehicle, a qualified automotive locksmith or dealership may be able to cut and program a replacement. Availability, equipment, and security procedures vary.
