What to Do If Car Keys Are Locked Inside the Car?
1 Answers
There are three solutions: 1. Spare Key Generally, cars now come with two keys, one for regular use and the other as a spare. If the primary key is lost, the spare key can be used. Therefore, it is crucial to remember that the spare key should never be left inside the car but stored in a safe place at home. 2. Professional Locksmith If the car is far from the spare key or the spare key is also missing, contacting a professional locksmith to unlock the car is an option. Usually, relevant identification documents such as an ID card or vehicle registration certificate are required to prove identity. 3. 4S Shop Every car has a built-in anti-theft code. By providing the vehicle registration certificate and personal identification to the 4S shop, they can retrieve the anti-theft code and configure a new key. Additionally, they can erase the data of the lost key, rendering it invalid for starting the car (though it may still unlock the doors). For enhanced security, the 4S shop may also recommend replacing all the locks in the car.
