Ignition Repair & Replacement – common questions
My key turns but the car doesn't start. Is it the ignition?
It can be the ignition switch, the key chip or the immobilizer. We diagnose on site and tell you which before any repair.
Can you repair the ignition without replacing it?
Often yes. Worn wafers inside the cylinder can be replaced and the cylinder rekeyed to your existing key, which costs less than a new unit.
Do I need to tow the car?
No. Ignition repair and replacement is done at your location, wherever the car is parked.

Do I get a price before you start?
Yes, always. The technician checks the lock or the car on arrival and quotes the whole job before touching anything. The estimate is free and there are no hidden fees.
Are you licensed and insured?
Yes. Budget Locksmith of Charlotte is licensed and insured, in business since 2010, and every technician is background-checked and shows ID on arrival.
