What to Do When the Keys Are Locked in the Car

[LucyLee]

Specific solutions for when the keys are locked in the car: 1. Use the spare key: When purchasing a vehicle, it usually comes with at least two original keys—one as the primary key and the other as a spare. The spare key should be kept in a safe place at home and should not be carried around to avoid unnecessary trouble if lost. If the primary key is accidentally locked inside the car, retrieving the spare key is the simplest and least costly solution. 2. Call a locksmith: If you are far from home or traveling, retrieving the spare key may not be practical. In such cases, hiring a professional locksmith is another option, but be sure to choose a licensed and reputable locksmith company. 3. Contact a towing service: Some 4S shops or repair shops also offer unlocking services, using special technical methods to unlock the car door, but this usually requires towing the vehicle to the workshop. Many insurance companies now provide free towing and rescue services, so calling your insurance provider when facing such an issue is also a good option.
