Came out cut a key for me but invoiced separately from the company and I had to pay additional fees outside what AAA covers for a key that stopped working when I got home. I had to take it in to get the car repaired to the key that was a "sub par" key according to the dealer that would have only charged $65 and this one cost me $185 Only benefit is it got me home after waiting 3 hours for them to come out. I was in a pinch and they got me home so that's where the stars comes from but the hinky stuff with the key and billing from a different company while in a keychain car just strange read more

I was scammed by these people. I spoke with them on the phone, gave my car's VIN (a brand-new 2025 Hyundai), and they pretended to be knowledgeable. They came to my place, messed with my car for almost an hour, and then said, "We can't program your car, you'll have to go to the dealer." They still charged me $150 for an OEM key fob that's obviously useless. They have no idea how to program new cars. Completely unprofessional and misleading. Stay away! read more

They were out super fast and provided very quick service. I was so nervous because I locked myself out with my doggies inside, but the issue was quickly resolved and for a very fair and competitive price. read more

Chris absolutely saved the day for us. We lost our key fob while traveling and we were able to arrange for him to meet us where we had parked our car, after regular business hours. His price was beyond reasonable and he was very friendly and professional. I hope I'm never in this situation again (lol) but if you find yourself in need of a locksmith in San Diego I would highly recommend KeyChain Locksmith. read more

Amazing! After calling several dealerships to buy an additional 2016 Honda Civic key/transponder I discovered the average cost was about $385. I purchased a key/transponder from an online seller and met with someone from KeyChain Locksmith in a parking lot in Lemon Grove. He cut the key and programmed it in 15 minutes. It worked perfectly and saved me a lot of money. The experience was strange considering we met in a parking lot, and he cut the key in the vehicle he arrived in but I have no reservations about using this company in the future. read more

After a negative experience with AAA was able to get an immediate response and support. Issue was taken care of immediately.

If your looking to have a Functional key cut well keep on looking . This guy Gets 1 star because he failed to do at least one thing right. Upon Making a key that successfully started the engine he Mauled the tumbler inside the drivers door and for a newer car that had never really used access this way he must have really just been careless. first time licking the doors and what do you know the key will not open the damaged door locks now. I called immediately and he-said he was in Vegas and good luck. several more attempts to reach him have failed . A month has gone by and not even a call back . Thanks for being the worst read more
