HOW CAN WE ASSIST WITH STOLEN CAR KEYS?

It is imperative to prevent thieves from taking your car if the keys are stolen. We can use modern diagnostic equipment to talk to the car’s immobiliser and wipe out stolen keys. Keys can be removed from the car and rendered unusable.
We will deprogram remote locking fobs. Opportunists steal keys without knowing which automobile they belong to. We can erase vehicle keys from the immobiliser system to prevent starting.
After decoding the keys, we can cut and programme an automobile key that matches the stolen key. We must add the keys to the car’s key memory if you find them.
We can also recode locks to change the combination, making stolen keys unusable. We’ll discuss your circumstances and recommend the most appropriate option for you.
