Ford is a top-three brand we service in Florida. The F-150 alone accounts for a huge chunk of our automotive locksmith calls. Ford uses the SecuriLock PATS system — a transponder-based anti-theft system that has been standard since the late 1990s. The 80-bit and 128-bit chip keys require dealer-level programming through the OBD-II port. Locksmith Auto carries Ford key blanks for every popular model and programs them on-site.
Ford dealer key replacement runs $200-500. An F-150 smart key costs $300-450 at the dealership. A basic Escape transponder key is $200-280. Ford dealers also charge a programming fee on top of the key blank price. Locksmith Auto does Ford keys starting from $90 for regular, $120 for transponder, and $180 for smart key. No towing, no dealer markup, same day at your location.
We service every Ford model on the road: F-150, Explorer, Mustang, Escape, Edge, Bronco, Ranger, Expedition, Fusion, Focus, and Transit. Whether you need a spare F-150 key, lost your Explorer smart key, or your Mustang fob stopped working, we handle it. Ford key programming takes 15-40 minutes depending on the security tier. Every key includes cutting, programming, full testing, and a 90-day warranty.
