The Toyota Camry is the number one sedan we get calls for across Florida. 2002-2011 Camrys use a transponder key with the Toyota G chip or H chip depending on the exact year. 2012-2017 models split between a standard transponder on the L and LE trims and a proximity smart key on SE, XSE, and XLE. From 2018 forward every Camry trim uses the Toyota Smart Key System with push-to-start. The 2025-2026 models use an updated encrypted fob with a different blank profile.

Transponder keys for 2002-2017 Camrys start from $120 at Locksmith Auto. Remote head keys run from $150. Smart keys for 2012+ Camrys start from $180. Toyota dealers in Florida charge $250-450 for Camry key replacement. A basic transponder runs $250 at the dealer. A smart key hits $350-450 after they add the programming fee. Then there is the tow bill if you are stranded without a working key.

Camry owners who call the dealer hear "bring it in" — which means a tow truck, a 2-5 day wait for an appointment, and a final bill north of $400 for a smart key. Locksmith Auto shows up same day with the blank pre-cut. We program through the OBD-II port in 15-30 minutes for transponder and 20-40 minutes for smart keys. Same diagnostic tools, same result, $100-270 less. Every Camry key we program comes with a 90-day warranty.
