FAQs For Northfleet Drivers
Can you unlock my car without damage?
Yes—our first approach is always non-destructive entry using professional tools and techniques. In the rare case a lock is severely damaged or a component has failed internally, we’ll explain your options before any work proceeds.
I’ve lost my only car key in Northfleet. Can you make a new one without the original?
Yes. We can create a new key without the original and program it to your vehicle. We can also erase the lost key from your car’s memory so it can’t be used to start the car. For more on this situation, see lost or stolen car keys.
My key fob has stopped working—could it just be the battery?
Often, yes. We can test the fob, replace the battery, and re-sync it if needed. If the PCB or buttons are faulty, we can repair or replace the fob and reprogram it. Read more under key fob not working.
