2022 Dodge Challenger
Lost Key - We Come to You in Ventura County

Q: Is a locksmith cheaper than the Dodge dealer?

On Dodge vehicles, yes. CDJR dealers charge $400 to $600 or more for a single key on most models. A Durango owner was quoted close to $450 for one fob with programming and a cut blade. A Hornet GT owner paid $1,003 at the dealer for a single replacement fob. On the locksmith side, a Durango owner had the same job done for $225 total with cut and programming in about 15 minutes. A Ram 1500 owner had four new keys and a fob programmed for $250 total from a mobile locksmith when the dealer was quoting $600.

Q: Does the price include cutting and programming?

Yes. Our price covers the key blank, cutting the high-security blade, programming the transponder to your Dodge's Sentry Key immobilizer, syncing the remote functions, and testing before we leave. Dodge dealers break this into separate charges. The Challenger Scat Pack invoice showed $259 for the fob, $59 for the blade, and $129 for programming as three distinct line items. Some dealers also tack on a diagnostic fee to cover their wiTECH subscription costs. With us it is one price for everything, done at your location.

Q: What battery does the 2022 Dodge Challenger key fob use?

The 2022 Dodge Challenger uses a CR2032 battery. You can pick one up at most auto parts stores or pharmacies for a few dollars. When we make a replacement key, we always install a fresh battery so you are starting with a full charge. If your existing fob is losing range or acting inconsistent, a new battery is the first thing to check before assuming the key needs to be replaced.

Q: Do you charge a trip fee or service call fee?

No. The price we quote includes mobile service to your location anywhere in Oxnard, close to Rio Lindo neighborhood. No trip fee, no mileage add-on, no service call charge. CDJR dealers require the vehicle at their service bay for wiTECH programming, which means arranging a tow if you have no working key. One Dodge owner reported being without their vehicle for 10 days just waiting for the dealer to look at it, then had to rent a car on top of the repair bill. We come to you and the price stays the same.

2022 Dodge Challenger Smart key Replacement - Fast, Affordable & Professional

No key at all? I get these calls all the time. A lot of Dodge owners only ever had one key, so when it's gone, it's gone. I build a new one from scratch right at the vehicle. No original needed.

A bass fisherman at the lake boat ramp outside Oxnard lost his only key somewhere between the dock and the parking lot early one morning. He checked his tackle box, checked the boat, checked every pocket. Nothing. His 2022 Dodge Challenger was sitting in the dirt lot and he figured the truck was stuck until he could tow it to the dealer on Monday. I told him I could be there that afternoon.

So I used my Y159 Lishi to pick his door open and decoded every wafer position for exact cut depths. Then I connected through OBD and ran the Dodge all-keys-lost sequence, which clears previous keys from the WIN module and registers the new one as primary. His smart key, FCC ID M3M-40821302, was cut, programmed, and tested right there in the dirt. I cut him a spare too so he wouldn't be in this situation again.

His truck started at the boat ramp. Total was around 257. The dealer wanted 441 plus a tow and a weekday appointment. From lock decode to engine running was about 45 minutes.
