Question 1

Are you licensed and insured to work on Lincoln vehicles?

Accepted Answer

Yes. EZ Car Keyz is a California BSIS licensed locksmith company, license number LCO 6792, and fully insured. Lincoln key work on a 2014 Navigator is not something every general locksmith is equipped to handle. The remote head key on this vehicle requires both the physical blade to be cut correctly and the transponder side to be registered to the vehicle through professional programming equipment. Some locksmiths show up, see the Lincoln badge, and tell you it has to go to a dealer because they do not have the right tools. That is a them problem, not a Lincoln problem. You can verify the BSIS license directly through the California Bureau of Security and Investigative Services. Eight-plus years of documented work, verifiable reviews, and a real business name you can look up.

Question 2

How do I know you are not a scam locksmith?

Accepted Answer

Scam locksmiths are a real problem in Southern California, and owners of full-size luxury vehicles get hit with it more than most. The pattern is always the same: low number on the phone, inflated number once they see what you are driving.

EZ Car Keyz has over 100,000 followers across YouTube and TikTok where you can watch this exact work being done. We give you a firm price on the phone, show up in a marked service van, and the price does not change when we arrive. No luxury badge surcharge. No sudden "special equipment fee." What you are quoted is what you pay.

Question 3

Will the replacement key work exactly like my original?

Accepted Answer

Yes. A properly programmed replacement remote head key for the 2014 Navigator covers the full function set: the blade starts and turns off the ignition, the transponder is recognized by the immobilizer, and the remote buttons operate the locks. Every function gets tested on site before I hand it to you.

One thing worth knowing from forum reports on these vehicles: owners who bought cheap aftermarket remote head keys online and had them cut by a hardware store sometimes found the remote range was short or the vehicle security system flagged the key on first start. The issue is usually a low-quality or improperly cloned transponder. The key we supply is a quality unit, programmed correctly, and confirmed working on your specific vehicle before we leave.

Question 4

My 2014 Navigator is showing a key warning on the dash and will not start. Is the key dead or is it something else?

Accepted Answer

A key-not-detected type warning that prevents starting usually comes down to one of three things: a dead battery in the remote head, a transponder that has lost its pairing to the vehicle, or a fault in the immobilizer system itself.

Start with the CR2032 in the key head. A completely flat battery can prevent the transponder from communicating even at close range. Swap it first. If the car starts after that, you were dealing with a battery problem that had finally bottomed out.

If a fresh battery does not change anything, the transponder pairing may need to be re-established. That requires programming equipment connected through the OBD port. It is not a key replacement in that case, it is a re-registration.

If neither of those resolves it, the fault is in the vehicle security system itself, not the key, and that needs a proper diagnosis on site. I carry the equipment to read that out and tell you exactly where the failure is before any parts are ordered.

Question 5

I have one key left for my 2014 Navigator. Can you make a spare before I end up stranded?

Accepted Answer

That is the smartest call you can make. One-key situations are how people end up stranded in a Shadowridge parking lot on a Sunday night.

For the 2014 Navigator remote head key, adding a spare while you still have a working key is the easier job. The existing key is used during the programming process, and the new one gets registered alongside it. Both keys remain active. I come to you, cut the blade and program the transponder on site, test everything, and you leave with a backup that is ready to go. Waiting until the last key fails turns a one-hour job into a longer, more involved process.
