You can get a replacement key at the 4S shop if you lost one car key but still have another one, and they can also erase the data of the lost key. Contact a professional locksmith: If the vehicle is far from the spare key or the spare key is also lost, you will have to call a professional locksmith to unlock the car. Usually, relevant documents such as ID card and vehicle license are required. Get a new key from the 4S shop: Every car comes with an anti-theft code. The owner only needs to provide the vehicle license and personal information to the 4S shop, and the 4S shop can obtain the anti-theft code of the vehicle based on the provided information and then configure a new key.
As a veteran driver who often loses car keys, I once lost one at a supermarket. When only the spare key was left, I immediately went to the 4S shop. They easily made a new key by programming it with the remaining one to match my car's locking system. The whole process took less than half an hour and cost about 300-500 yuan depending on the car model. I suggest you get it done early to avoid more trouble if the other key is lost. The 4S shop is reliable and secure, and the anti-theft system can be updated. An additional reminder: bring your vehicle registration and ID card to prove your identity to avoid a wasted trip. Don't save money by going to a roadside stall, as it might be unsafe. Remember to regularly check the condition of your spare key and develop good habits to minimize losses.
