Can a car be equipped with a remote key?

Yes, a car can be equipped with a remote key. Each remote key has a unique code that is also stored in the vehicle's anti-theft system. To program a new remote key, it must be matched with the code in the vehicle. It is recommended that car owners go to an authorized 4S dealership for programming to ensure vehicle security. A remote key not only has remote control functions but also serves a primary anti-theft purpose. Once the new remote key is successfully programmed, the lost key will be deactivated. Even if someone finds the lost key, they can only unlock the car door mechanically but will not be able to start the vehicle. The process of programming a new key involves the 4S dealership submitting a request to the manufacturer's system. The manufacturer then sends the vehicle's security code to the 4S dealership, where a blank key is programmed to match this code.
