1996 Ford Thunderbird Replacement - Fast, Affordable & Professional
She landed at the airport after a red-eye, walked to long-term parking, and her 1996 Ford Thunderbird wouldn't respond to the key fob because the CR2032 battery in the remote was dead. The car was locked, the emergency blade was inside her luggage in the trunk, and the trunk wouldn't pop without the remote. She was stuck at the airport with bags and no way into her own car.
She called the dealer. Earliest appointment was Thursday. It was Tuesday. She called a tow company and they quoted $180. Then she found EZ Car Keyz and asked if I could come to the airport lot.
I was there in 45 minutes. Once I got the door open, I used my IM608 to check the key programming status through OBD. Both her keys were still learned to the car. The issue was just the dead fob battery causing no remote response and no push-to-start wake. Her Key with FCC ID was back working after a CR2032 swap and a quick reprogram to clear the fault code. She seemed pretty relieved when I told her both keys were still good.
She drove home that same morning. Total was about $95. Dealer would have been $200 plus $180 in towing and a Thursday appointment. She skipped all of that and was home before lunch.

Why Ford Customers Skip the Dealer
Real reviews from real locations
“My ignition would not turn in La Jolla and I thought I needed a tow. EZ Car Keyz repaired the ignition on the spot and also made a spare key for safety. The technician worked carefully and confidently.”
“Niv showed up, did his thing, and just like that I had two new keys for a fraction of what the dealership quoted. I have zero reservations recommending him to anyone who needs car keys replaced.”
“We had one broken key for our Honda Civic and one working key for our Lexus. Tim came out and cut three remote car keys at a great price. All keys worked perfectly. Professional, courteous, and highly recommended.”
