Replacing a 2012 Ford F-150 Key
The 2012 Ford F-150 typically uses a remote head key (or flip key) that combines a transponder chip and the lock/unlock remote buttons in one unit, requiring both cutting and programming. Chida Locksmith carries the equipment to cut and program this type of key on-site, so most Ford F-150 owners in Gilroy can get a working replacement without towing the vehicle to a dealership. Our mobile programming avoids a costly dealer tow and appointment.

We confirm the correct key for your exact year and trim before we arrive so the job is done in a single visit.
