The keys to your car are a big deal. When you lose them, it can be hard to get into the vehicle and drive away. The good news is that there are ways for you to get a replacement key without the original.

One way is by going online and finding an auto locksmith in your area who can make one for you when they come pick up the car from where its parked.
Another option is by contacting your insurance company and see if they offer this service as well. Finally, if all else fails, then go ahead and call a tow truck driver because he can unlock any cars doors in order to retrieve your lost key or replace it with another one until we find yours again.
A car key is a essential part of having a car. It unlocks the doors and starts up the engine, while it also opens the trunk for storage. The average cost to replace a lost or broken key can be anywhere from $50 to $500 depending on your make, model, and year of vehicle.
While it may be tempting to just go out and buy a new car key when you lose the original, that's not always an easy or affordable option. The best alternative is to either get a replacement key made by your dealership or find someone in the community who can do it for you.
Prices vary depending on where you live, but this quick guide should give you some ballpark figures so that you know what kind of budget to work with before shopping around.
It's been a long day and you're finally home after a tough commute. You open your car door, but to your horror it won't unlock. In the process of locking the door, you must have set off the anti-theft system by accident. What do you do now?
It may be time to call for roadside assistance or even file an insurance claim if this is not an isolated incident for yourself. But what about that spare key that came with your car when it was new? And if you don't have one, can someone duplicate it without having access to the original? The answer is yes!
It is possible to duplicate a car key without the original, but it's not recommended. It can be done with locksmith tools and skills, but you risk damaging your lock and keys. If you want to do this anyway:

Can you get a car key made from your VIN number? The answer is both yes and no. A lot of people think that they can just take their VIN number to the dealership or locksmith and have them make a new car key for them, but there are some things you need to keep in mind if this is something you're thinking about doing.
First off, not all locksmiths will cut keys right away without first verifying that it's a valid request with the individual who owns the vehicle. Secondly, should your key be lost or stolen then it may be difficult to obtain a replacement should this happen because most dealerships won't give out copies of keys unless they know for sure what has happened with the original one.
Would it be possible to get a new key made for your car based on the VIN number of the vehicle? The answer is not always yes. Some states have laws that prohibit this type of replacement, while others allow it with some restrictions.

AutoZone is the world's largest retailer of auto parts. They sell over 2 million products, and they are responsible for more than 15% of all retail repairs done in the United States. But do you know what else AutoZone does? They also make car keys!
I have a feeling this blog post is going to be controversial. I'm not interested in whether or not AutoZone does make car keys, but rather what the company's reaction will be if they find out their key-making service isn't as popular as they think it should be.
