Key Replacement - Save vs Dealer in San Diego

2019 Toyota Camry Smart Key Replacement - Fast, Affordable & Professional

She was at a sushi restaurant near The Bridges in Rancho Santa Fe when her bag walked out the door with someone else. Keys, wallet, phone, gone in a moment she did not even notice.

She borrowed the server's phone. Police first, then her husband, then me. Her 2019 Camry was sitting in the lot with zero working keys, and the dealer her husband called said three to five business days, tow it in, and the estimate was over seven hundred once they added the tow and their recommendation to rekey.

I got there that evening. All-keys-lost is a different procedure than adding a spare to a car that already trusts one key. When every key is gone, I clear the key memory entirely, which is the step that kills the stolen fob permanently. Whatever is walking around in someone else's pocket will not start that car again. That is always the first thing I explain to someone in this situation, and I could see the tension come down a little when she heard it.

I connected to the vehicle, wiped the old key data, and registered two new fobs from scratch. Cut the emergency insert blade to the vehicle, tested every function on both fobs at the car, confirmed the push-button start on both. Done before the police report was fully written up.

She drove home that night with two working keys and paid a fraction of what the dealer quoted, without a tow, without a week-long wait.
