Q: How long will the replacement key last?

With periodic battery changes and normal use, a properly programmed Chevy key should last years. The transponder chip and internal electronics are durable. The most common physical failure is the plastic shell cracking or the key ring loop weakening over time. If a shell wears out, the internal electronics can usually be transferred to a new housing without reprogramming as long as the transponder chip is intact. A Colorado owner was advised to buy a replacement shell on Amazon for about 10 dollars and swap the board over.

Q: What if the new key stops working after a few weeks?

Call us and we will come back. Every key we make is covered by our warranty. If it stops starting the car, loses remote function, or develops any issue under normal use, we fix or replace it. One owner paid over 700 for a locksmith key where the buttons only responded every tenth press and the locksmith would not fix it. We test every function before we leave and stand behind our work if anything goes wrong after.

Q: How many buttons does the 2016 Chevrolet Impala key have?

Your 2016 Chevrolet Impala key has 5 buttons. The button count helps identify exactly which fob your vehicle uses, since Chevrolet uses different key designs across transponder, flip key, and proximity smart key variants. When you call us, having this detail along with your year, make, and model helps us confirm the right key before we even head out so there are no surprises when we arrive.

Q: Can I trust an aftermarket Chevrolet key to be reliable?

It depends on the source. Professional-grade aftermarket Chevy keys with the correct FCC ID work reliably. A Bolt EV owner bought two aftermarket HYQ4EA fobs for 36 dollars and they work great. But a locksmith warns that the cheapest Amazon fobs fail more than half the time. The key is matching the exact FCC ID and frequency to your vehicle. We use tested, professional-supplier keys specifically to avoid those compatibility failures on your Chevrolet.

2016 Chevrolet Impala Remote flip key Replacement - Fast, Affordable & Professional

I'm already in Santa Barbara with Chevy key blanks, flip key shells, ID46 transponder chips, and smart fob housings loaded in the van right now. I don't order parts when you call. The B111 blanks, the B106 blanks, the flip key shells for Cruze and Equinox and Malibu, the CR2032 batteries, and the smart fob housings for push-to-start models are all in labeled drawers behind my seat.

A couple at the bowling alley near Arlington Theatre on a Saturday night came out and their 2016 Chevrolet Impala wouldn't respond to the remote. Both fobs were dead. They figured they'd call the dealer Monday and leave the car overnight. Then one of them searched "Chevy locksmith" and found me.

I was 15 minutes away and I had the right blank for their remote flip key already in stock. Their remote, FCC ID OHT01060512, was a 5-button fob that needed fresh CR2032 batteries and a resync using my VVDI Key Tool. Both fobs came back online and the truck started on the first press. The wife told me she'd been dreading the idea of leaving the truck in the bowling alley lot overnight.

They drove home Saturday night. Total was 188. The dealer would have been 389 plus a wait until Monday. When everything is stocked, a call at 9pm Saturday is the same as a call at 9am Tuesday.

Our Credentials FAQ

How on-site key replacement works

Do you use OEM or aftermarket keys on Chevrolet vehicles?▼

We use OEM spec keys that match the factory part number, chip frequency, and blade profile for your specific Chevrolet. Cheap Amazon fobs are a gamble. A locksmith on Reddit warns that when customers supply their own Amazon fobs, they see less than a 50 percent success rate. But a Bolt EUV owner who compared OEM and quality aftermarket internals found them nearly identical. We carry professional-grade keys from tested suppliers so you get a key that works and lasts, not a coin flip.
