Mobile Chevrolet key replacement near you

From Silverados to Equinoxes, Chevrolet is everywhere in Warren, Sterling Heights and the rest of Metro Detroit. We replace Chevy keys and fobs on site, including all-keys-lost jobs, so you don't need a tow or a dealer appointment.

Chevy key systems have changed a lot over the years, from Passlock ignitions and chip keys stamped with a circle-plus symbol to flip keys and push-to-start fobs. We identify your exact system by VIN and bring the right key.

Popular Chevrolet models we make keys for

  • Chevrolet Silverado
  • Chevrolet Equinox
  • Chevrolet Traverse
  • Chevrolet Malibu
  • Chevrolet Tahoe
  • Chevrolet Suburban
  • Chevrolet Colorado
  • Chevrolet Blazer
  • Chevrolet Trax
  • Chevrolet Camaro

Key types

Chevrolet keys and fobs we replace

Circle-plus transponder keys

Chip keys marked with a circle-plus symbol on the blade, used on many 2000s and 2010s Chevrolets.

Flip keys

Fold-out key and remote combos used on many Silverados, Equinoxes and Malibus.

Proximity smart keys

Push-button start fobs for newer Silverados, Tahoes, Traverses and Blazers.

Passlock ignition keys

Older GM vehicles where security is built into the ignition rather than a chip in the key.

Good to know

The GM security relearn

Many older GM vehicles use a timed security relearn when a new key or ignition is added. The process can take 10 to 30 minutes with the key in the ignition. A security light flashing on the dash after a key or ignition problem is often a sign the system needs a relearn.

How it works

Getting a new Chevrolet key

  1. Call or text your VIN

    Send the year, model and VIN. You get a firm quote and arrival window.

  2. We verify ownership

    Photo ID plus registration or title, so nobody else can get a key to your Chevrolet.

  3. Cut the blade

    The key or emergency blade is cut to your Chevrolet's locks.

  4. Program and test

    The key is programmed to the immobilizer, and we test lock, unlock, trunk and start before we leave.

FAQ

Chevrolet key replacement FAQs

Can you make a Chevy Silverado key with no original?

Yes. We can cut a Silverado key from the VIN or by decoding the lock and program it to the truck at your location, even with every key lost.

Why does the security light stay on in my Chevy?

It usually means the vehicle is not recognizing the key or the ignition sensor. It can be a damaged key, a worn ignition, or a system that needs a relearn. We can diagnose it on site.

Do you program Chevy key fobs?

Yes. We program remote and push-to-start fobs for most Chevrolet cars, trucks and SUVs.

How much does Chevrolet key replacement cost?

It depends on the model, year and key type. A basic Chevrolet transponder key costs less than a push-to-start smart key, and making a spare costs less than replacing every lost key. Call (586) 623-2403 with your year, model and VIN for a firm quote before any work starts.

Do you come to me for Chevrolet key replacement?

Yes. We are a mobile locksmith, so we cut and program Chevrolet keys wherever the vehicle is parked across Oakland and Macomb County, including Troy, Royal Oak, Novi, Southfield, Farmington Hills and nearby cities. No tow needed.
