A smart key must match the vehicle’s electronics, not just the case shape. Explain whether the car detects the fob, whether remote entry works, and if all keys are lost. An emergency mechanical blade may also need cutting.
Used, aftermarket, and manufacturer fobs can have different restrictions. Check compatibility before purchase.

Moonlight Beach and Swami’s have separate parking areas. State which beach you visited and whether your car is in its lot or on a residential street. A beach name alone may send a service vehicle to the wrong access point.
If you are down on the sand or below the bluffs, share the car’s location rather than your current walking position. Keep any remaining key or damaged fob for the technician to assess.
