2015 Ford Escape
Award-Winning Key Replacement in Ventura County

Q: Do I need to tow my car to the dealer if I have no keys?

No. That is the dealer route, not the only route. Ford's own instructions say losing all coded keys may require having the vehicle towed to the dealer. One Escape owner was already stuck driving a borrowed car while trying to figure out the tow. A former Ford master tech said the dealer will insist you replace two keys and program them, and it will not cost less than $400 plus towing. We bring professional Ford PATS tools to your location and handle the decode, cutting, and programming right at your vehicle.

Q: How long does an all-keys-lost replacement take?

Ford's PATS system enforces a mandatory 10 minute security delay, and all-keys-lost procedures may require one or two of these waits depending on the model. Total on-site time usually runs 30 to 60 minutes once we are connected. A former Ford master tech confirmed that a mobile locksmith can handle this in roughly 40 minutes. Compare that to the dealer route where Ford owners have reported five-day waits for what should have been a simple programming job. We handle Ford AKL same-day in a single visit.

Q: What battery does the 2015 Ford Escape key fob use?

The 2015 Ford Escape 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. Pro tip: once you have your new key, pick up a spare battery and keep it in your wallet or glove box. A dead battery is the most common reason Ford owners think they have a key problem.

Q: Can you make a spare at the same time so I have two keys?

Yes, and on Fords we strongly recommend it. After a full PATS erase, the system requires at least two keys to be programmed before the vehicle will start. We always program the minimum two keys during an AKL job, and we can add up to four total keys in the same session. Ford typically allows a maximum of four keys in memory. Getting both keys done in one visit saves you the cost and time of a separate programming session later.

2015 Ford Escape Smart key Replacement - Fast, Affordable & Professional

Here's exactly what happens when I replace a 2015 Ford Escape key. I verify your identity and vehicle ownership. Then I decode the lock and cut the blade so the mechanical side is perfect. From there I connect my IM608 to the OBD port under your dash, access the PATS security module, and run the key learn sequence through the security countdown. After that, I test. Not just "does it start." I test every button, the remote range from 30 feet, the lock and unlock, the trunk or hatch, and remote start if equipped. Then I start the car three times in a row to confirm there's nothing intermittent.

A soccer parent in Ventura watched me work on her Escape and said the testing was the part that surprised her. She expected me to hand her the key and leave. Instead I stood at her car for five extra minutes pressing every button, walking away and pressing again, starting the car and shutting it off repeatedly.

Her fob, FCC ID M3N-5WY8609, was a 5-button remote head key. I confirmed every button, tested the range, and did three clean starts. I told her that testing is the part most locksmiths skip, and it's the part that catches problems before they strand you somewhere.

That testing process is the same on every job, and it's included in the 95 I charge. Dealers charge 200 and some skip the thorough testing entirely.

What to Do When You Lose Every Ford Key

What to expect when we arrive

I lost all my Ford keys. Can you still make a new one?▼

Yes. All-keys-lost is one of the most common calls we get on Ford vehicles. We decode your locks, cut new keys, erase the old keys from the PATS system, and program fresh ones so the lost keys no longer start the car. On most Fords, the system requires at least two keys to be programmed after a full erase before the vehicle will start. We carry extra blanks for exactly this reason. Ford dealers will tell you to tow the car in and buy two OEM fobs. We come to you and handle the entire job on site.
