Key Tip: Avoid exposing key fobs to water or extreme temperatures
Key Programming
Most transponder keys and smart keys can be reprogrammed if they haven't been damaged. Basic mechanical-only keys (no chip) can't be reprogrammed - they must be physically cut to match your locks.
Key Fact: The average driver will lose 1-2 car keys during ownership
