Replacing your Car Key In Phoenix: Your options -
When people lose keys, they usually look at four options. Here’s the honest breakdown from my side:
Dealership
Dealerships can replace keys, but it’s usually the most expensive option and it often takes longer than people expect.Locksmith
This is what I do every day at Johnny Locksmith at Johnny Locksmith. I can come to you and cut and program a replacement key on site, usually faster and for less than the dealer. No towing, no waiting around.Online
Ordering online can work sometimes, but it’s risky. You can get the wrong key, the wrong frequency, or a poor-quality fob, and you may still need programming.Auto parts store
Some stores cut basic keys, but many can’t program modern transponder or smart keys, and they don’t handle high-security keys.
If you are not sure what you need, call me and I will ask a few quick questions and point you to the best option +1 480-779-9144

Common car key emergencies

Lost keys
Lost keys happen every day in Phoenix. Call me and I’ll identify your key type fast, then I’ll cut and program a working replacement. If you want a spare made right after, you can also stop by the shop on Camelback Rd.

Key broke in the lock or ignition
Stop trying to twist it. That’s how people damage the ignition or the lock. I can safely extract the broken piece, then cut and program a replacement key. If the lock is worn out, I’ll tell you straight and give you the cleanest repair option.

Ignition is stuck or not turning
Ignition problems usually start small, the key sticks, the ignition feels loose, or it won’t turn at all. I can diagnose the issue and repair or replace the ignition on site. My goal is always the same: fix it properly and make sure your key works smoothly before I leave.

Locked out of your car
Lockouts happen, and you don’t need to break a window or damage the door. I offer 24/7 lockout service across Phoenix. If your keys are gone or locked inside, I can often cut and program a replacement key or fob on the spot. Call (480) 779-9144 and I’ll head your way.

Frequently Asked Questions
Can you replace my car key if I lost all keys?
Yes. If you lost every key, I can still cut and program a new one on-site for most vehicles. Tell me the year, make, model, and whether it’s push-to-start, and I’ll confirm what’s needed.
How much does car key replacement usually cost?
It depends on the key type (basic metal key, transponder, remote head, or push-to-start fob) and whether all keys are lost. When you call, I’ll ask a couple quick questions and give you a clear price range before I head out.
How fast can you get to me for a car lockout or lost keys?
If it’s urgent, I prioritize emergencies. In many areas I can arrive in about 15–35 minutes depending on traffic and distance.
Do you come to me, or do I need to tow the car?
I’m mobile. I can usually handle cutting and programming at your location, so you don’t have to tow.
My key fob works, but the car won’t start. Can you help?
Yes. That’s often a transponder or programming issue, a dead fob battery, or a problem with the ignition/immobilizer communication. I’ll diagnose it and tell you the most efficient fix.
My key is stuck in the ignition or the ignition won’t turn. What should I do?
Don’t force it. Forcing can snap the key or damage the ignition. Call me, tell me what you’re driving and what the key is doing, and I’ll walk you through the safest next step while I’m on the way.
Can you make a spare key even if I still have one working key?
Absolutely, and it’s usually cheaper than waiting until you lose the last one. If you have one working key, I can duplicate and program a spare quickly.
If I buy a key online, can you program it?
Sometimes. It needs to match your vehicle exactly (the right key type and FCC ID). If you tell me your vehicle details and send a photo of the key you bought, I’ll tell you if it’s compatible before you waste time.
