Ford key and fob service FAQs

Can you make a Ford key if I lost all my keys?

Yes, in many cases we can make a new key or fob even when all keys are lost. We come to your vehicle, verify ownership, and then cut and program a new key or remote on site, as long as the needed parts and programming access are available for your Ford.

Do I need to tow my Ford to a dealer for a new key or fob?

Usually no. Our mobile service is set up to handle key cutting and programming at your location. We bring the equipment to your Ford, saving you from arranging a tow in many situations.

Can you program a Ford key fob I bought online?

Sometimes. It depends on the exact part number, condition, and compatibility with your Ford. Some online fobs are incorrect or defective. We can test what you have and let you know if it can be programmed. If not, we can usually supply a compatible key or fob.

How long does Ford key replacement or fob programming take?

Most jobs take a single visit. The time on site depends on the vehicle, key type, and issue, such as whether keys are lost or you still have a working key. When you call, we provide a rough estimate of how long your specific service may take once we arrive.

What if my Ford key will not turn or is stuck in the ignition?

This may be a worn key, a worn ignition cylinder, or another lock issue. We can come to your vehicle, test the key and ignition, and often repair or replace the ignition and cut a fresh key so it turns smoothly again.
