When car lock replacement is necessary
When someone loses their keys, they will need to replace the locks on their car. Although many people contact a locksmith when they lose their car key, it usually isn’t advised to spend money buying a new one from the car dealer. It’s possible that the person who stole your car keys will find and steal your vehicle.
In some cases, the key for modern cars has a computer chip attached to it. Installing a keyless car starter is meant to prevent your car from being stolen, but if the key is missing you won’t be able to get it started. If the keys are missing while the driver and car are away from their home, it can be hard to replace them since they cannot be easily duplicated.
Another scenario in which locks are often damaged by car owners is when the key won’t turn in the lock a full 360 degrees. Due to wafers and pins becoming worn or teeth behind keys being gradually shaped away, the key will not work in a lock.
