Methods Of Having A Car Key Replacement

By Jamal D White


Losing your car can disrupt your travel plans and cost you a lot of money. Imagine waking up early in the morning to start your journey only to realize that your car key is missing. Whether stolen or merely misplaced, you will need a car key replacement service. There are a number of ways of replacing your car key to help you continue using your car.

It is possible to claim the cost of replacing your car key from your insurer. Some insurance companies offer a car key cover automatically in their standard car insurance policies while with others you may need to buy a different policy to cover your car key. Your insurer may pay a percentage of the cost or alternatively pay for new keys or replacement locks.

In the event your standard policy does not offer a car key replacement policy option, then you will have to base your claim on a standalone policy. This policy is much more beneficial as it provides a wider range of services than the straightforward option. Your insurer can hire you a car to use during the period you are unable to use your car keys because of lack of keys. Other insurers demand that the keys be lost for a period before the policy is affected. Be keen to spot such clauses.

You can call your break down service provider if you accidently locked your keys inside the car. They will get you back in your car at no extra cost but only if you have a spare key. The car lock break down service provider will cover the cost of getting your spare key to where you are stuck. If, say, you are several miles away from home, your car lock break down service provider will meet the cost of bringing your spare key from home.

Buying a new set of keys from your car dealer or outlet is also another alternative. While it may be easy to make an order for a new set of keys, those keys may be expensive due to the extensive amount of coding and programming that is required to set your car alarm or remote controls. You need to check the prices in different dealerships to be sure that you are getting a good deal.

You can also buy a new set of keys from your car dealer or an outlet; although it could be quite expensive. The cost of coding and programming that is required to set your car alarms or remote controls make this option expensive. Shop around to get a fair deal as labour costs vary. Getting keys replaced through this approach takes time.

Another option is to replace the entire ignition. The idea centers on replacing your door locks. This is the worst option and must be given due consideration. Do not take with this alternative if you do not have replacing ignition lock cylinders or door locks since they will not match. If you do it, you may have a door that is always shaky and a damaged steering column.

Whichever method of car key replacement you choose, you must be comfortable and confident with. It should also be safe for you and convenient to use. It should also be affordable for you based on your budget.
