Here is some good advise from a customer of ours. If you have to go to a dealer to have your keyless entry remote key fob programmed by a dealership, here is a way to try to get them to do it for free: Take ur vin number down and call the local dealer, or better yet take it down to the dealer in person, and ask them if there has been a recall on ur vin - also mention u would like to get that key fob set up - he might do it free - just go by and be friendly during the day time - when he has time and inclination to help you - remember all workers at the dealer are sales men as with no sales - no job for any of them This might or might not work, but it definitely can't hurt to try. You will be surprised how being nice to the service department can get you!
