1998 Chevrolet Malibu MECHANICAL-KEY Replacement - Fast, Affordable & Professional
Guy was near Wildwood Regional Park in Thousand Oaks, parked at one of the trailhead lots. Came back to his 1998 Chevrolet Malibu and his backpack was gone off the passenger seat. Someone popped the lock, grabbed the bag. Keys, wallet, phone, everything.
He borrowed a phone from another hiker, called the police, then his girlfriend, then me.
The Malibu was sitting there with zero keys. His girlfriend called the dealer and they said tow it in, order a new lock cylinder, three to five days, and they'd want to rekey the doors and ignition since the stolen key could still open everything. The quote she got back was eye-watering.
I drove out that evening. His car uses a B102 keyway with the Passlock I system. No transponder in the key, just a resistive sensor built into the ignition lock cylinder that talks to the BCM. I decoded the existing door lock wafer pattern, cut a fresh B102 key on my mobile cutter, and it turned the ignition clean. The Passlock sensor read the correct resistance, the THEFT SYSTEM light cycled off, and the engine fired.
Then I cut him a spare so he would not be back in this spot again.
He drove home that night. The stolen key can still physically turn the lock, so I talked him through getting the doors rekeyed later. But at least the car moved under its own power instead of riding a flatbed to a dealership for a week.

“Locked out on a weekend night and everyone else wanted $300+. EZ Car Keyz sent Roman late at night for much less. He worked for over an hour and did not give up until the door opened. They even made a new key on the spot.”
“I had two Subaru key fobs made and Marco provided excellent service. He stayed persistent through multiple part orders to make sure everything was correct. Very thorough, punctual, and great communication throughout.”
“Tim went above and beyond. I struggled all day trying to program a new FOB and nothing worked. Tim helped me patiently, even recommending cheaper options since I was on a tight budget. He eventually came all the way to Ojai late at night and fixed everything.”
