2013 Chrysler Town & Country
Key Replacement - Save vs Dealer in San Diego

Q: Is a locksmith cheaper than the Chrysler dealer?

Almost always. Chrysler, Dodge, Jeep, and Ram all share the same Mopar key ecosystem, and dealers across that network typically charge $300 or more just for the fob before adding programming labor. A former Jeep dealer parts worker confirmed fobs run about $300 at the counter, plus a half hour of labor on top. One owner was quoted $600 by the dealer and found a locksmith who did the same FOBIK job for $275.

Q: Does the price include cutting and programming?

Yes. Our price covers everything: the key blank, cutting the emergency blade, programming the transponder and remote functions through your vehicle's SKIM or WIN module, and testing before we leave. Chrysler dealers break this into separate charges. A parts counter worker described it as $125 to $350 for the fob part, then over $100 for the service department to hook up wiTECH and run the programming. With us it is one price, everything included, done at your location.

Q: What battery does the 2013 Chrysler Town & Country key fob use?

The 2013 Chrysler Town & Country uses a CR2032 battery. You can pick one up at most auto parts stores or pharmacies for a few dollars. When we make a replacement key, we always install a fresh battery so you are starting with a full charge. If your existing fob is losing range or acting sluggish, a new battery is the first thing to try before assuming you need a full replacement.

Q: Do you charge a trip fee or service call fee?

No. The price we quote includes mobile service to your location anywhere in Alpine. There is no trip fee, no service call charge, no mileage add-on. One owner called a mobile locksmith and was told there was a minimum fee of $160, then got hit with separate charges for cutting, programming, and an emergency surcharge until the bill reached $850. That does not happen with us.

2013 Chrysler Town & Country Smart Key Replacement - Fast, Affordable & Professional

Your 2013 Chrysler Town & Country uses a Smart Key with 7 buttons on the face, a CR2032 battery inside powering the remote, and either a FOBIK blade that inserts directly into the ignition module or an emergency key tucked inside the smart fob depending on the year. There's also a transponder chip that communicates with the car's immobilizer every time you start it.

A daycare provider at her duplex near Harbison Canyon had a Town & Country with a cracked FOBIK shell. The rubber buttons had worn through and the housing was splitting at the seam. The dealer told her a full replacement was needed, cut and programmed from scratch. $466. What they didn't mention is that the chip and circuit board inside were working fine. She just needed a new shell.

I went to her duplex that evening. Her key used the older Y160 transponder keyway, so I brought my Y160 Lishi to decode the lock and verify the blade. Her key's FCC ID was IYZ-C01C. I swapped the working electronics from her cracked shell into a fresh FOBIK housing, verified every button, and cut a new blade. I showed her the circuit board so she could see the guts were perfectly fine.

She paid about $273 for the full job. Her cracked FOBIK was her only one, so having it rebuilt and a spare made means she's covered going forward.
