Hey all,
Short version of a long story. My mom's 99 Cavalier that she doesn't want or need (she drives an Altima) has been at my home for a couple years. (FOR SALE!!!) Anyway, the problem is that we only had one key for it. Yes, had. I was out of town and big snow was coming, so I asked my wife to move all the cars in the driveway. Well, my wife <<says that our kids>> lost the key. It's been over a month and still no key. The problem is that this car is blocking in 6 other cars (all mopar), including the replacement driver for my quickly dying Spirit. I called the local Chevy dealer and they want $55 for a 'key by code from the VIN'.
Anybody have a discount connection? I just hate to put any more money into that car. If someone can just get me the key code I can get a key made locally.
Maybe I'll have to wait for GM to buy Chrysler, then I'll be sure to get a discount.
Thanks,
Ron
