Common Auto Lock Problems

Are you struggling to lock your car's ignition? Does your key feel rough or not turn smoothly? At Advanced Automotive Lock and Key, we've fixed hundreds of auto lock issues over the years. We can often identify the problem by knowing your car's make and model!

Causes of Auto Lock Issues

What causes these lock problems? Many things can mess with how your locks work. Even a tiny bit of dirt in your ignition can jam it up tight. Stuff like dirt, lint, or metal bits can all mess with how smoothly your locks operate. A worn-out key can also leave scratch marks in the lock, spreading metal bits around and making things worse over time. If you don't fix these issues early, your locks could completely jam up, causing more frustration and costing you more cash.

Lock Re-coding

When you get new locks for your car, they often come in parts or already put together with a different key. If you buy locks from the dealership for domestic cars, they usually come in pieces. This makes it easier for you to get the lock matched with your existing key. However, if you purchase aftermarket locks from places like Napa or Advance Auto Parts, or factory original import locks, they usually come fully assembled with a key.

Importance of Lock Re-coding

It's important to get your lock re-coded whenever you replace it in your vehicle. This means making it match your existing key. It's a big deal because if you ever lose your key, getting a replacement could be a real headache and cost you a bunch of money. If you have any questions about lock re-coding, we're here to help!
