The Chevrolet Silverado is one of the hardest-working trucks in Florida, and we replace Silverado keys constantly. 2007-2013 models use GM's PK3+ transponder system with a standard chip key. 2014-2018 Silverados introduced the flip key remote on most trims and a proximity smart key on High Country and LTZ. From 2019 onward the redesigned Silverado uses a proximity smart key with push-to-start on LT and above, while the WT (work truck) trim still offers a traditional transponder option.

A transponder key for a 2007-2018 Silverado starts from $120 at Locksmith Auto. Flip key remotes run from $150. Smart proximity keys for 2014+ Silverados start from $180. GM dealers charge $300-450 for a Silverado smart key replacement. Even a basic transponder key runs $200-300 at the dealer after parts and labor. The dealer quote does not include the tow if your truck is sitting in a parking lot with no working key.

Silverado owners are working people who do not have time to wait 3-5 days for a dealer appointment. Locksmith Auto shows up same day — at your house, your shop, a construction site, wherever the truck is parked. We cut the key, program it through the OBD-II port in 15-35 minutes, and verify ignition start, lock, unlock, tailgate, and remote start. Same GM diagnostic tools the dealer uses, $100-270 less out of your pocket. 90-day warranty on parts and labor.
