If you lose keys to your car the first thing you should do is search the place where you normally keep the keys. Some keys "drift" from their normal location and end up on a floor or under something. It is crucial not to give up too quickly especially if you've been looking around more than once. If you've tried this but are still unable to locate your keys, call the local locksmith for help. Locksmiths tend to be less expensive than dealerships for replacing car keys. The locksmith will require details about your car, including the VIN or the key code number. This information will enable the locksmith to identify your vehicle and provide you with the correct key to start it.

When a key breaks off in your lock and you feel that stomach-curling snap, feelings of dread and despair fall on you. But before you give up, take a deep breath and be aware that it's possible to find your lost key.

If not, tweezers can work fine too (just make sure you don't accidentally push the broken edge further into the lock).

Often, you can fix the issue yourself without having to buy replacement parts.
