You drive away same visit—no flatbed, no dealership wait.

Common Ford key and ignition issues we fix

PATS Passive Anti-Theft System transponder failures cause start refusals on 1996-2014 Ford trucks—we diagnose and reprogram roadside. Worn ignition cylinders on F-150 and Focus models cause keys to bind, especially after 200,000+ km—replacement keyed to your existing key takes 45-60 minutes. The ignition actuator rod is a known failure point on older Ford trucks—we replace it roadside without towing to the dealer. Tibbe-style keys on older Fords are obsolete but we still cut and program them when needed. AKL on F-150, Escape, Explorer, Bronco, and Mustang is handled on-site.
