Lost your keys at a Mission Valley mall, hotel or apartment complex? Give us the garage, level and space – we make and program new keys right in the garage for most vehicles.
From $170, all-inclusive · Arrival: typically 20–40 minutes during business hours
Replacing every lost key involves identifying the right part, cutting any required blade, and checking the vehicle’s programming requirements. Tell us if the keys were stolen so we can discuss whether missing electronic keys can be removed from memory.
A few vehicles need a part we order first – we tell you on the phone before we come out.

Not necessarily. Stopping a missing key from starting the engine does not change the door lock. Ask whether the locks should also be changed to work with a different key.
In most cases, yes – lockouts and key programming happen at the car. Give us the garage, level and space so we can find you quickly.
Tell us what happened, which vehicle you drive, and where it is parked.
