If You Lose Your Car Key or Keyless Remote Entry Device, Don’t Panic

Read More About Cars and Trucks

Car keys used to be simple. You unlocked the door with the key, then put it in the ignition, turned it, and the car started. Back then, when a new key was needed, a trip to the hardware store and an expenditure of $2 or $3 sufficed. Those days are gone forever. Now most cars use both a key with an electronic chip embedded in it and also a remote keyless entry device. When those items are lost or stolen, the car owner has a big problem. The automobile dealership where you purchased the car is glad to replace keys and entry devices, but it is no exaggeration to say they will charge you an arm and a leg for their assistance. However, the good news is that it is still not too difficult to deal with the problem of a lost key or entry device.

For a small fraction of what the dealer charges, you can go online at www.autotransponder.com and purchase the same high tech chip keys and remote keyless entry devices that you would get at a dealership. There are several reasons to shop online.

First, there is a very large selection. They carry chip keys and remote entry devices for almost every kind of car. They even have these products for some autos that are no longer being manufactured, such as Oldsmobile, Pontiac and Saab. Best of all, for those who have had keys and key fobs with older technology, they can upgrade to key fobs that will not only lock and unlock doors, but will also open sliding minivan doors and car trunks. There are other upgrades available when high tech keys and equipment are purchased. You can purchase replacement car keys that are far better than the originals were.

A second reason to purchase online is prices. At a dealership, a high tech car key with an embedded chip can cost $100 or more plus an additional fee for programming it. At www.autotransponder.com, many transponder keys cost less than $25. Shipping costs are minimal, with USPS first class mail adding an additional $3.99. Other, faster delivery types of mail are available at an additional cost.

Quality is always a concern. All items come with a one-year warranty and a 90-day return policy. All items are tested before shipping, so problems are rare. All keys and keyless entry devices must be cut (keys only) and programmed. Some items come with free programming instructions, but others are more complicated and must be taken to a professional automotive locksmith for programming. Prices can vary so shop around.

It will be a surprise to some that ordering high tech keys and keyless entry fobs is such a simple process. For those who do not have a computer, usually there is one available, plus a person to help, at the home of a friend or relative or at the public library. It is not difficult to accomplish this.

The good news is that, while it is disconcerting to lose your car key, there is help readily available at a moderate cost.
