Last time I lost my car key, I was in a real panic. First, I searched my home and car for a spare key. If there wasn't one, I immediately contacted the 4S shop or a professional locksmith. They can pair a new smart key based on your vehicle's VIN code, with costs ranging from a few hundred to over a thousand yuan. For security, make sure your car is locked right away to prevent someone from finding the key and driving off. Some newer cars support locking or unlocking via a mobile app, which is great for emergencies. In the long run, it's wise to get an extra key made and keep it in a safe place at home to avoid this hassle again. Don't delay this process, as it could disrupt your daily life, like making it difficult to pick up your kids. I think developing good habits, like always hanging your keys in the same spot, can help prevent such mishaps.
