2016 Jeep Patriot Remote Head Key Replacement - Fast, Affordable & Professional
The OEM versus aftermarket question on 2016 Jeep Patriot keys deserves a direct answer. OEM Jeep keys come from the factory supplier with the Jeep logo on the housing, factory shell, factory chip, and factory markup. Aftermarket keys use the same blade profile, same chip family, same button layout, and same circuit board design. The functional difference in daily use is zero if the aftermarket blank is quality.
A delivery driver at the warehouse district in Otay Mesa asked me flat out whether the key would be "as good as the dealer key." He had a 2016 Jeep Patriot and wanted a spare he could trust as his daily fob, not something he'd toss in a junk drawer. Fair question, and it deserves an honest answer.
I carry aftermarket blanks tested across hundreds of Chrysler and Jeep jobs. The blade is the same SIP22 profile cut to spec. The transponder chip is the same family the wireless control module expects. His fob, FCC ID OHT692427AA, was a 4-button smart key. The aftermarket housing has the same button feel, same weight, and same fit. The difference is no Jeep logo on the back and roughly $150 less. I decoded his lock with my SIP22 Lishi and verified the blade cuts before handing it over.
His total was $185. Dealer charges $395 for the OEM version. Where aftermarket goes wrong is when a locksmith sources the cheapest blanks on the market. I test every batch before it goes in the van.

“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.”
