To replace a car key in Toronto, call (416) 555-0150. Lines are open daily from 7am to 10:30pm. The call usually takes a few minutes: we ask about the car, the key and the location, quote the price, and if you say yes, a local technician is sent to the car.
What happens during the call?
- We ask for the make, model and year, and what kind of key you had.
- We ask whether any working key is left and exactly where the car is parked.
- You hear the price for your car before anyone is sent.
- If you agree, a technician is dispatched and you get an arrival estimate.
Have these within reach
- Make, model and year.
- The VIN, from the ownership or the windshield.
- Photo ID and the ownership, for the technician.
- The exact spot: address, garage level or row in the lot.
- The part number of any fob you bought yourself.
What if you do not know the key type?
Describe it: buttons or no buttons, a blade that folds out, or a car that starts with a button. That is enough for us to identify it.
What if you are not at the car right now?
You can call from home or work and meet the technician at the car later. Say when you can be there; the technician needs you, your ID and the ownership at the car.
Can you call for someone else?
Yes. Make the call and give the details, and make sure the owner, or someone with the right paperwork, is at the car when the technician arrives.
How is the price given?
As one figure for your car and key, before anyone is sent. If you want to think it over or compare it with a dealer quote, call back when you are ready.
Calling late in the evening?
Call as early as you can. Near closing time, the dispatcher tells you honestly whether a technician can reach the car and finish before 10:30pm, or whether it is better to plan the visit for the morning.
Are calls recorded?
Calls may be recorded for quality and training, and basic call details are logged by a call-tracking service. The privacy page explains what is kept and for how long.
