2000 Hyundai Sonata Metal Key Replacement - Fast, Affordable & Professional
Over in Juanamaria, I got a call from a guy who'd been fighting his 2000 Hyundai Sonata ignition for about three weeks. Some mornings it turned first try. Other mornings he was sitting in a parking lot working the key back and forth for five minutes before it finally caught. He'd already been to a dealer, who told him the cylinder was worn out and quoted him a complete ignition assembly replacement.
His buddy said to call a locksmith first.
I pulled up, took a look at the cylinder, and the issue wasn't the whole lock. It was a handful of worn wafers inside it. The lock internals on these older Sonatas see a lot of daily use over two decades, and the wafers loosen up or wear down to the point where a key that used to fit perfectly starts catching on the way in or binding on the turn.
I decoded the existing lock, swapped the worn wafers, and cut a fresh key matched to the repaired cylinder. He watched the whole thing. I laid the old wafers out on the hood so he could actually see the wear and understand why it had been sticking.
The key slides clean now. He didn't replace a single part that wasn't actually broken, and he paid a fraction of what the dealer wanted for a job that would have replaced components that still had life in them.

Fast Service, Five-Star Reviews
Reviews from drivers who got keys fast
“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.”
