Question 1

Are you licensed and insured to work on Nissan vehicles?

Accepted Answer

Yes. EZ Car Keyz is fully licensed through the California Bureau of Security and Investigative Services (BSIS License LCO#6792) and carries full insurance. We are also NASTF Vehicle Security Professional certified, which means we have authorized access to the security codes and programming protocols needed for late-model Nissan vehicles. Nissan's NATS system requires legitimate credentials to access BCM codes and key registration. Not every locksmith has this, and one 2023 Pathfinder owner was told by a local locksmith that only the dealer can program their key fobs because they did not have the right tools or subscriptions.

Question 2

How do I know you are not a scam locksmith?

Accepted Answer

Scam locksmiths have a pattern: they quote a low service call price on the phone, then jack the price up once they arrive and you are desperate. They dodge questions about your specific vehicle and cannot tell you what tools they use on a Nissan. A legitimate automotive locksmith who works on Nissans should be able to explain the NATS system, tell you which tools they use, and give you a real estimate for your 2024 Nissan Z over the phone. One Rogue owner hired a locksmith who botched the programming so badly the car had to leave on a tow truck, and a judge later ordered that locksmith to pay over $2,000. We have over 100,000 followers across our YouTube and TikTok channels showing exactly how we do the work.

Question 3

Will the replacement key work exactly like the original?

Accepted Answer

Yes. When we program a Smart Key for your 2024 Nissan Z, it communicates with your vehicle's NATS immobilizer and Intelligent Key system the same way the factory key does. The engine starts, the doors lock and unlock, proximity detection works, and all the remote functions respond as expected. We test every key on the spot before we leave. That Rogue owner who took a locksmith to court won because they arrived with a working car and left with one that would not start. That does not happen with us because we verify everything before we hand you the key.

Question 4

What battery does the 2024 Nissan Z key fob use?

Accepted Answer

The 2024 Nissan Z uses a CR2032 battery. We always install a fresh one when we make a replacement key. Nissan Intelligent Keys are notorious for battery drain. Altima owners describe their fob batteries lasting only about a year and a half and say Nissan fobs "suck battery power." If your existing key is acting sluggish or losing range, a dead battery is the most common cause. It is a $3 to $5 fix you can do yourself before assuming the key or the car has a bigger problem.

Question 5

What happens if something goes wrong after you leave?

Accepted Answer

Every key we make comes with a warranty. If the key stops working, the remote functions drop, or anything is off, call us and we take care of it. We are a local business in Encinitas, not a random call center sending whoever is closest. Nissan owners on forums report locksmiths who could not finish the job or left the car worse than they found it. One Rogue owner went to court to recover damages after a bad programming job. When you go through EZ Car Keyz, you have a real person and a real business standing behind the work.
