A spare key is cheap insurance against a stranded, all-keys-lost situation. A car locksmith duplicates and programs spare keys and fobs for most vehicles.
Copying a modern key is more than cutting metal — the duplicate must be programmed to the immobilizer to start the engine. A locksmith can duplicate transponder keys, remote head keys, and many proximity fobs while you wait. Bring your working key, VIN, and proof of ownership.
Making a spare while you still have a working key is simpler than a full replacement after every key is lost. Keeping that spare somewhere safe means one misplaced key never becomes an emergency. It is one of the most cost-effective steps a car owner can take.
