WHAT DRIVERS SAY

Lost my only Toyota key in a parking garage off 6th Street on a Saturday night. Called Pros On Call at 11 p.m. Technician was there in 18 minutes, cut and programmed a new key on site, and I was driving again before midnight. Dealership wanted $350 and a three-day wait. Paid less than that and was done in under an hour.

AUTOMOTIVE LOCKSMITH QUESTIONS

Can you make a car key without the original?

Yes. We use the vehicle identification number to look up the key code and cut a new key from scratch. For transponder-equipped vehicles (most 1995 and newer), we program the chip to the car's immobilizer on site. No original key required. License License #B19847. Call (888) 601-6005 and confirm your year, make, and model.


How much does a replacement transponder key cost compared to the dealership?

Dealer key replacement runs $200 to $500 for most models, plus a tow if you're stranded. Our on-site automotive locksmith service typically runs $150 to $300 for a transponder key cut and programmed, and we come to your location. Exact pricing is quoted before any work begins. No hidden fees.


Do you program push-to-start key fobs and smart keys?

Yes. We program proximity fobs and smart keys for most push-to-start vehicles including Toyota, Honda, Chevrolet, Ford, Hyundai, Kia, Nissan, and others. Some European makes require dealer-side coding that locks out third-party access. Call with your year, make, and model and we confirm in under a minute.


I'm locked out of my car in a parking lot. How fast can you reach me?

We dispatch immediately. Median Central Texas response is 14 minutes. Give us your address or a landmark - the H-E-B on Slaughter, the Target on Research, the Walmart on MoPac - and we route the nearest technician directly to you. Call (888) 601-6005 now.


What vehicle makes and models do you work on?

We service most American, European, and Asian makes and models from 1995 forward: Ford, GM, Chrysler/Stellantis, Toyota, Honda, Hyundai, Kia, Nissan, Subaru, Mazda, Volkswagen, BMW, and Mercedes-Benz. High-security European models may require additional time. Call with your year and model to confirm before dispatching.


Do you serve Round Rock, Pflugerville, and other Austin suburbs?

Yes. From our Central Austin dispatch we cover Round Rock, Cedar Park, Pflugerville, Georgetown, Leander, Kyle, Buda, and San Marcos. We operate across 36 Texas markets. Drive time on I-35 and MoPac factors into routing. Call and we confirm your exact location and ETA.


What vehicle brands can you cut and program keys for?

We stock blanks and program keys for most major brands: Toyota, Honda, Ford, GM (Chevrolet, GMC, Buick), Kia, Hyundai, Nissan, Subaru, and most European brands. Older vehicles (pre-1998) rarely have transponder chips and are simpler to cut. For very recent or high-security vehicles, we confirm parts availability before dispatch.


Can you program a key I bought online?

Sometimes. Aftermarket transponder keys vary widely in quality. We can attempt programming with a customer-supplied key, but if it fails to pair with your immobilizer, we cannot guarantee the result. Buying the key through us costs more but includes a programming guarantee.


Do you carry ignition cylinders on the van?

For the most common American and Japanese vehicles, yes. For uncommon or luxury vehicles, we may need to order the cylinder, which typically adds one business day. Call and give us your year, make, and model -- we check parts availability before dispatching.


VEHICLE BRANDS WE WORK ON

We cut and program keys for Toyota, Ford, Honda, Chevrolet, Kia, Hyundai, Nissan, GMC, Subaru, and most European makes. For fleet vehicles, we coordinate directly with your fleet manager. Blanks for most 1995-and-newer models stocked on the van -- call with your year, make, and model and we confirm availability before dispatch.
