What should I do if I lose or have my car key stolen?
If you lose or have your car key stolen, you should immediately take the following steps:

Contact Us: Call us as soon as possible. We can advise you on the best steps to take and arrange a time for making a new key or re-coding your current lock, if necessary.
Report It: If you believe your key has been stolen, report it to the police. This might be important for insurance claims.
Contact Your Insurance Company: Depending on your car insurance, the costs of replacing or re-coding keys might be covered. It's worth checking your policy.
