Replacement keys for shared vehicles
If more than one driver uses the car, tell us whether someone still has a working key. A spare request differs from replacement when every key is lost. Explain whether the remaining key unlocks and starts the vehicle, not just whether its buttons work.
Have the exact year, make and model ready. A replacement may require a cut blade, electronic programming or both. Key appearance is not enough to prove compatibility, and an online-purchased unit should be checked before you assume it can be used.
