Do you by any chance have a Mopar Max Care Extended Warranty? I thought I read the Max Care Warranty covers the key FOBS?Just lost 1x key that's for my 2018 JLU w/ remote start. I called couple of the local dealers, and one seems to have any in stock? Any tips on where I can purchase an OEM Key and where I can get it to program for my Jeep?
Yes, maybe it was this.Do you by any chance have a Mopar Max Care Extended Warranty? I thought I read the Max Care Warranty covers the key FOBS?
You can get key fob on Ebay for $100 (OEM) and a lock smith can program it for $40 - $60.
This isn’t true. Independent shops can do this, the tooling simply isn’t worth the investment most of the time.Most modern cars are the dealer only...they will have to order and program for you. They are not cheap.
Although ebay aftermarket fobs are cheaper ($69)I agree. Depends on your location for price, but if you've no Jeep key replacement program, this is probably your best bet.
If you can "buy" keys why am I a month into waiting on one for warranty.I had no keys after buying from an auction.
Bought 2 new fobs with cut keys to your VIN. ($110 each)
Had a lock smith come to my house to program them both ($80)
You can buy fobs with uncut and cut keys to your VIN for same price (different part numbers)
With cut key, remote start:

Buying a cut key/fob has to go thru FCA cutting to your VIN which takes longer. A month is about right.If you can "buy" keys why am I a month into waiting on one for warranty.
Not true. There are a LOT of locksmiths /companies who cut and program keys 3rd party. They specialize in automotive keys. Many even work 3rd party for the dealers. A lot of their business is used cars. I have seen their trucks outside of dealers in the used car lots. I just saw one outside of my Jeep dealer working on cars. The company is a national chain kind of like SnapOn. I even saw either the same company or one like it at a Sams Club. They had a kioask set up offering to replace remotes and cut keys for a club discount. I will try looking up the company.Most modern cars are the dealer only...they will have to order and program for you. They are not cheap.
