FAQs For Jeep Key And Lock Problems
Can you make a Jeep key without the original?
Yes. We can create a new key for most Jeep models without the original by decoding the lock or using secure immobiliser data. We then cut and program the key on site. If you’ve lost all keys, we can also erase old keys so they cannot be used to start the vehicle.
My Jeep says “Key Not Detected.” What should I do?
First, replace the fob battery if you have a spare. If that doesn’t help, it may be a transponder or proximity pairing issue. We offer Jeep smart key programming and can re-synchronise or replace the fob and program it using OBD2 or EEPROM methods as required. Contact our team for car key programming.
Can you unlock my Jeep without damaging it?
In almost all cases, yes. We use professional, non-destructive entry techniques designed for Jeep locks. If a rare exception applies, such as a severely damaged lock, we’ll explain options and obtain approval before proceeding. For more details, see our vehicle unlocking service in Dartford.
How long does Jeep key replacement take?
Many Jeep keys can be cut and programmed within one visit. Time varies by model, year, and whether it’s a standard transponder key or a proximity smart key. We aim to complete urgent jobs the same day wherever possible.
Do you cover evenings and weekends for emergencies?
Yes. Our emergency auto locksmith support is available for urgent Jeep lockouts and key issues across Dartford and the DA postcode area. If you’re locked out or stranded, visit our emergency auto locksmith in Dartford page or call us directly.
Is it cheaper to use you than a Jeep dealer?
Often, yes—especially when you factor in towing and wait times. We’re a mobile service, so we come to you and handle cutting and programming on site. For context about cost factors, read our auto locksmith prices in Dartford.
