2017 Subaru Forester Smart Key Replacement - Fast, Affordable & Professional

Out near Hobson Park in Oxnard, a travel nurse called me on a Monday morning. She was on a 13-week hospital contract, living out of a furnished apartment, and her Forester's smart key had stopped being recognized by the car overnight. She'd already called the dealer. They told her Thursday at the earliest, possibly longer if a blank needed to be ordered.

She didn't have Thursday. She had Tuesday morning at 6 AM.

I drove to her apartment garage that same afternoon with everything I needed. Connected my diagnostic equipment to the OBD port, ran the Subaru smart key registration sequence, cut the insert blade to match her lock, and tested every button plus the door handles and the start button before I packed anything up.

The whole job was done before she finished her shift debrief call. She had a working key in her hand on Monday. She drove herself to the hospital Tuesday morning.

The dealer comparison was almost an afterthought when she mentioned what they'd quoted. She saved a good chunk, didn't need a tow, and didn't lose three days of having a car in a city she didn't know well yet.

“I got locked out of my vehicle and also lost my key. Marco came out, made a new key for my Toyota, and got me back on the road. He was professional, friendly, and clearly knows what he is doing.”

“My ignition would not turn in La Jolla and I thought I needed a tow. EZ Car Keyz repaired the ignition on the spot and also made a spare key for safety. The technician worked carefully and confidently.”

Subaru Forester Mobile Service FAQ

Real costs, no dealer surprises

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

We use verified blanks that match the factory FCC ID and battery spec for your specific vehicle. On the 2017 Forester smart key, that means a fob that the car's security system will actually accept during registration. This generation is known to be selective - owners on Subaru forums have reported that off-spec or poorly cloned fobs either fail to register entirely or register but drop out after a short time. We don't gamble on blanks we can't verify. You're paying for a key that works, not a key that worked during the parking lot test and then quit a week later.
