What a new car key costs, and why it varies
The price list starts new vehicle keys, transponder programming and ignition changes at $100.00, plus the $29.00 service call fee. The footnote is honest about the range: every key and ignition is built and cut differently, so the total depends on the cut and on whether the key needs programming.
To get a useful estimate on the phone, have the year, make and model ready, and say whether you have a working spare. Copying a working key is simpler than making one from nothing.
- Year, make and model
- Push-to-start or turn key
- Do you have a spare that works?
- Proof of ownership for the vehicle
03 · Lockouts
Locked out of the car
Stay with the vehicle if it is safe, and keep your phone on. If a child or pet is inside on a warm day, call 911 first. For everything else, a lockout opening starts at $19.00 plus the service call fee.
