About Infiniti Keys
Behind every Infiniti Intelligent Key sits Nissan's NATS immobilizer, which is why a generic locksmith pairing routine won't pair the fob. We carry NATS-specific tooling and the PIN-retrieval workflow that QX and Q models actually require, dispatched straight to your driveway anywhere in San Diego County.
Four Generations of Infiniti Keys, One Mobile Visit
Four eras define the Infiniti key story since the brand launched in 1989. The plain-mechanical-key era closed in 1996. The transponder era opened in 1997 with the Q45, one of the first vehicles in the lineup to ship with an immobilizer chip, then spread to the rest of the catalog through the early 2000s. The remote-head-key era added integrated lock and unlock buttons. The Intelligent Key era arrived in 2004, rolling out push-button start model by model until it became universal across QX and Q. Each era needs different programming hardware.
Mobile, NATS-Equipped, Every Generation
Current QX and Q proximity fobs need professional OBD-II programming tied to NATS, which sits well outside the toolkit of any locksmith who treats Infiniti as a generic Japanese platform. Our van runs the NATS-specific equipment and the diagnostic tools each generation requires, all delivered to wherever you're parked between Oceanside and the Mexico border.
What Makes Infiniti Keys Different
The Infiniti badge implies a standalone luxury platform. The wiring underneath says something else. NATS, Nissan Anti-Theft System, runs the immobilizer on every Infiniti, and NATS operates on a different security model than the GM, Ford, and Toyota platforms most locksmiths handle daily. Infiniti markets the proximity hardware as Intelligent Key, but the access pathway is PIN-coded NATS, reachable only through Nissan Consult III or a compatible aftermarket programmer.
Why a Generic Shop Wastes the Trip
The practical fallout: a generic locksmith can quote you a price to pair the fob, then discover at the car that their tool doesn't see NATS at all. Wasted trip, wasted afternoon. A shop without NATS-capable equipment can't complete the pairing regardless of how the fob hardware itself looks.
Why Our Van Is Configured for Infiniti
All-keys-lost on NATS requires the PIN, and the new fob has to walk through a VIN-tied programming sequence to register. Our setup is built around this exact workflow, the PIN retrieval, the VIN-keyed sequence, and the post-pairing verification, and the kit travels in the van to wherever in San Diego County the call originates.
Infiniti Dealer vs. EZ Car Keyz
The Infiniti dealer invoice usually has three lines: $330 to $1,000 for the smart key replacement, $100 to $200 for the diagnostic appointment that has to happen before any key work begins, and the tow if you've got no working key. We collapse that into one line item, no diagnostic upfront, no tow, no calendar negotiation, performed at the car.

What the Infiniti Dealer Experience Is Really Like
Step one at any Infiniti dealer is a diagnostic appointment, billed at $100 to $200 before the technician touches the key system. The service advisor uses that time to verify VIN, check immobilizer status, and confirm access codes. The fee gets waived in some cases if you commit to the full key service on the same visit, but if you walk out without authorizing the work, that fee stays on your card.
The Tow, the Diagnostic, the Wait
All-keys-lost forces a tow at almost every Infiniti dealer because ECU programming has to happen at the car, and the car has to be at their facility. Non-emergency key appointments book one to three business days out in San Diego County. All-keys-lost jobs that need parts ordered stretch one to two weeks before completion. Final invoice: $330 to $1,000 for the smart key with programming, plus the tow if you have no key, plus the diagnostic if it didn't get waived.
How a Mobile NATS Visit Compresses It
Our path collapses the same work into a single curb visit, usually under an hour from arrival to handoff. Same NATS PIN retrieval, same VIN-keyed programming sequence, just performed at your car instead of theirs, with no diagnostic fee, no tow bill, and no week-long calendar gap.
Pro Tip
Every push-to-start Infiniti has a dead-battery backup, and most owners discover it in a parking lot at the worst possible moment. The play on most QX and Q models is to press the dead fob flat against the Start/Stop button itself, the close-range coil inside the button reads the chip passively without any battery power. Listen for the chime confirming detection, then proceed normally: brake, press, start.
The G37 and Older FX Outlier
G37 and certain older FX models break the pattern, they include a dedicated fob slot on the lower left dash near the steering column. Slide the fob in with the key ring side facing out and the buttons facing up, then start as usual. Worth opening the owner's manual today to find your exact backup procedure, easier in a Mission Valley garage than from the driver's seat at 10 PM in a Coronado parking lot.
Infiniti Owners on Our Service
"Called on New Year's Day at 5 PM. Key worked on ignition and passenger door but not the driver door. He looked at the key more closely and said it could be a worn out key versus a door cylinder. Got the spare key and it worked. Saved me more than $100 compared to changing the door cylinder. Prompt, professional and fair pricing."
Gordon Harada"EZ Car Keys is by far the best locksmith I've ever used. Marco is prompt, prices are reasonable, and he has the experience that leaves you comfortable. We've used him twice and will never use anyone else!"
Traci Thomas"Simply amazing. They honored their phone quote even though the job took much longer due to problems with my ignition cylinder. They disassembled, repaired, made two new keys and programmed key fobs - all for the original quote."
