When your car key is lost, no longer works or needs to be replaced, chances are that you will look for a car key specialist. But what exactly does such a person do? In this blog, we explain what a car key specialist does, when you need one and why it's smarter to choose a specialist instead of, say, the brand dealer.
1. Making and programming keys
