Pontiac Key Replacement in Boca Raton, FL

Lost your Pontiac key? We make a new one at your car.

Pontiac closed in 2010, but Grand Prix, G6 and Firebird owners still lose keys. Pontiac used GM’s VATS and chip-key systems, except the Vibe, which is a Toyota underneath and takes a Toyota-style key.

Einstein Locksmith is a mobile locksmith based in Boca Raton. We come to wherever your Pontiac is parked, cut the key, program it to the car, and you drive away. Call or text (561) 561-5397 with the year and model and you get a price before we come out.

What we do for Pontiac owners

All keys lost. Every Pontiac key is gone. We make a new one from the car itself and delete the lost keys, so a found key no longer starts it.
Spare and duplicate keys. The cheapest key you will ever buy is the second one, made while the first still works.
Key fobs and smart keys. Supplied, cut and programmed to the car.
Broken and worn keys. Extracted from the lock or ignition and replaced with a key cut to factory code.
Ignition repair. Key will not turn, or will not come out. See ignition repair.
Lockouts. Keys locked inside. See car lockout service.

Pontiac keys by year

Which key your Pontiac uses decides how it is made. Years are approximate and vary by model.

Years	Key type	What it means
Late 1980s to 1990s	VATS key	A metal key with a small resistor pellet in the blade. The pellet value has to match the car, so a hardware-store copy will not start it.
About 1997 to 2000s	Transponder (chip) key	PK3 and PK3+ keys with a chip in the head. Some 2000s GM trucks and SUVs used a plain cut key with the security in the ignition instead.
About 2010 on	Flip key and remote-head key	The remote and the chip key in one piece.

Pontiac key replacement by Einstein Locksmith — A Pontiac key we made at the customer’s car.

The dealer, or a locksmith who comes to you

Pontiac was discontinued in 2010, so there is no Pontiac dealer to go to. A dealer for the parent brand can sometimes help, but the car still has to get there.

With us there is no tow and nothing to order in most cases. Our price is typically well below the dealer’s, and you get it before we come out.

Pontiac models we make keys for

Grand Prix, Grand Am, G6, G8, Bonneville, Firebird, Trans Am, Vibe, Solstice, Torrent, and others. If yours is not listed, ask.

Pontiac key questions

How much does a Pontiac key replacement cost?

It depends on the model, the year and the type of key, so we quote before we come out, and the price you are quoted is the price you pay. Our price is typically well below a dealer’s, and there is no tow.

Can you make a Pontiac key without the original?

Yes in most cases. That is an all-keys-lost job: we make the new key from the car itself, at the car.

Who makes Pontiac keys now?

We do. Pontiac keys use GM systems that are still fully supported, and the Vibe uses Toyota’s.

Do I need to tow my Pontiac to you?

No. We are a mobile locksmith, so there is no shop to tow to. We come to the car within about 30 miles of Boca Raton, across Palm Beach and Broward County.

How long does it take?

Most keys are cut and programmed in under an hour once we are at the car. High-security systems can take longer, and we tell you what to expect when you call.
