Each type needs the right cutting and programming tools. Our service vans are equipped to handle most Hyundai systems on site.

FAQ About Hyundai Keys and Fobs

Can you replace my Hyundai key if I lost all my keys?

In many cases, yes. Our technicians can create and program a new key or fob from scratch using the vehicle. We come to your Hyundai, verify ownership, and then cut and program a new working key on site, as long as the vehicle system supports mobile programming.

Do I have to go to a Hyundai dealer for a new key or fob?

Not always. Many Hyundai keys, remotes, and smart keys can be cut and programmed by an automotive locksmith with the right equipment. We are not a dealer and do not claim any dealer affiliation, but we can often provide an on-site alternative so you avoid towing.

Can you program a Hyundai key or fob I bought online?

Sometimes. It depends on the exact part and whether it is compatible and programmable to your Hyundai. Some online keys and fobs are used, locked, or the wrong type. Our technician can check when they arrive, but we recommend asking us about parts before you buy them.

What if my Hyundai key turns but the car will not start?

The issue may be with the transponder chip, smart key system, ignition switch, or another part of the starting system. We can check the key, fob, and ignition cylinder. If it is a key, fob, or ignition lock problem, we can usually help on site. If it is a mechanical or engine issue, you may need a mechanic.

Do you offer spare Hyundai keys and fobs, not just emergencies?

Yes. We can come to your home or workplace during our normal hours to make duplicate keys or extra fobs for your Hyundai. Having a spare reduces the chance of being stranded if your only key is lost or damaged.
