Transponder keys are a great example of the way that modern technology is improving technology. If you don’t have the right key, then you would not be able to unlock your car doors or start the car’s engine. This makes it far less likely that your car will be broken into or stole. Someone who tries to start the car without the right key will find that the engine does not recognize the code. In some cases, the computer in the car will disable the engine temporarily as a security measure. Transponder keys are a huge upgrade over standard keys – but they are complicated and expensive to replace. You cannot simply ‘get a new key cut’ in the way that you could for a standard house key.
If your transponder key or proximity key suddenly fails, or you lose a key or even manage to get one stuck in the ignition, then you might want to call a specialist auto locksmith. There are many such locksmiths in Houston, Texas, that have the expertise required to fix transponder key problems.
Many people opt to go to their dealership to get car key issues fixed. There is no need to do this – dealers will replace keys, but they often charge high fees to do so. You would save money by calling a reliable Houston based auto locksmith such as Pop-A-Lock Houston to get your keys fixed or replaced.
