I lost my only car key — what now?
Call a mobile automotive locksmith with your VIN and proof of ownership. They'll generate, cut, and program a new key on-site without towing.
Dealerships typically charge $250–$600 plus a tow. A Mount Pleasant, NC automotive locksmith handles all-keys-lost programming for $180–$425 in your driveway.
Have ready: title or registration, photo ID matching the registration, and the VIN (windshield, door jamb, or insurance card). No paperwork? We can usually still help if you can prove ownership another way.
On most 2010+ vehicles the locksmith can also disable the lost key in the immobilizer, so if it's ever found by someone else, it won't start the car.
