GMC, or the General Motors Truck Company, has a history that goes back just as far as Buick. However, a shared history doesn’t mean that a GMC car key replacement will be the same as Buick car key replacement. Unlike most other automobile companies, GMC focuses primarily on trucks as a division of the General Motors company. This specification allows GMC to focus solely on providing its customers with trucks that are manufactured to fit their needs. Instead of having to diversify and split focus between other types of car models, GMC can focus solely on trucks.

FAQs
I need help with a GMC car key replacement, what do I do?
A GMC car key replacement is something that most GMC drivers will have to deal with at one point or another. The car key is a core component of every vehicle, and this holds true regardless of if you have a mechanical car key or a key fob that you want to replace. The motivation for wanting to replace your GMC car key can either be some form of damage or the simple desire to get a new car key since the one you have is rather weathered.
No matter what the motivation is for acquiring a GMC car key replacement, you need to make a decision on how you want to get your GMC car key replacement made. The options available to you are to call the GMC dealership or to contact a locksmith.
Is it possible to replace my GMC car key without having my original key on hand?
It is definitely possible to replace your GMC car key without having your original key on hand, although having your original GMC key makes the GMC car key replacement process much easier. Without having your original car key available, your GMC car key replacement will have to be done by using your Vehicle Identification Number (VIN). The locksmith can be cut to code once the locksmith has access to your VIN.
How much does it cost to replace my GMC car key?
Mobile Locksmith Philadelphia tries its best to keep our car key replacement costs much lower than the ones quoted by the dealership. Most car dealerships will charge customers upwards of $150 for a car key replacement. Here at Mobile Locksmith Philadelphia, a GMC car key replacement will start at $120 and usually remain within the price range, unless additional services are required.
Are there any other things I have to do to my GMC replacement car key?
Depending on the kind of GMC car key replacement that you get, there are some additional services that may be required to make your car key replacement fully functional. Most of these services will not apply to a mechanical traditional GMC car key. However, more modern GMC models use transponder keys and key fobs and these elements will have to be programmed accordingly.
Transponder key programming is necessary to pair your new GMC car key replacement to your vehicle. The same concept applies to your car key fob as well. These two components are core pieces of every modern vehicle, and they will need to be programmed accordingly if you replace your GMC car key.
GMC Ignition Replacement
GMC ignition replacement is a service we proudly, and efficiently, execute. Ignition replacement often becomes necessary after some form of damage has been detected in your GMC ignition. Damage is often a sign of wear and tear that may be adversely affecting your ignition. This usually means that the ignition will not work, which often leaves drivers stranded, or in other cases causes them to break their car keys. This often means they will have to undergo car key replacement and an ignition replacement as well.
GMC Key Fob Replacement
If you want to get a GMC car key replacement, there are times where you will also have to replace your GMC key fob as well. The process of replacing a GMC key fob is just as important as replacing the GMC car key itself. GMC models that were made within the last 15 years usually make use of key fobs, as a means to control the vehicle. If you own a GMC key fob, a time will come where you will eventually have to replace your GMC car key fob.
Although the GMC key fob and the GMC car key itself are directly linked, the problems that plague them vary from time to time. For instance, a GMC key fob might be damaged because of some wear and tear of its internal mechanics. When this happens, one of the only alternatives available is a GMC key fob replacement.
