2020 Nissan Versa
Key Replacement - Save vs Dealer in San Diego

2020 Nissan Versa Smart Key Replacement - Fast, Affordable & Professional

It was close to 11pm when the call came in. A guy working the overnight shift for a food vendor had parked in a lot near Moonlight Beach in Encinitas and his key was gone. Not at home, not in a pocket. Gone. Only key he had for his 2020 Versa, and the car was just sitting there under a parking lot light while he tried to figure out his next move.

He was about 30 seconds from calling a tow truck when he found my number.

First thing I asked was the VIN. He didn't know what that was. I told him to walk to the front of the car, look through the windshield at the lower corner on the driver's side, and read me the number printed there. He found it on the second try. From that VIN I already knew what key system I was dealing with and could pull up the right fob blank before I even left.

I told him his insurance app probably had his registration scanned in. It did. Ownership verified over the phone.

I got there with everything prepped. Built the replacement fob, programmed it to the car's immobilizer through the diagnostic port, tested every function including the emergency blade in the door cylinder. He watched the whole thing happen under the lot lights in about 40 minutes.

He drove home that night. He told me the dealer was his next call and they would have been closed anyway. The VIN is the single most useful thing you can give me when you call. Everything else we can work around.
