From what I understand, you have to go to the dealer. However, if you have 2 FOBs, you can program a 3rd yourself. So once you get this resolved, get a 3rd FOB so that if you ever lose one, you can program another.

Also, this is a good reminder to me - I've been meaning to get a 3rd FOB for awhile now, think I'll order one today.

Dealer can help....but recommend trusted local locksmith for better price and care.

I purchased two additional programmed fobs from local quality locksmith,
saved some cash from dealer'$ quote.

So when you take delivery do you only get one key fob or should you get two ?

Thanks, two would seem the norm but you never know so just asking. And we WILL get two from our dealer at delivery. Hopefully in a few days as it shows shipped on 6-4-23

For the benefit of future Google visitors....

The first TWO key fobs must be programmed by a licensed locksmith or your dealer.

The third and forth key fob can be programmed by you in your driveway—instructions in the manual.

Why the restriction? It's to prevent someone from "temporarily borrowing" (stealing) your key fob and use it to program a bunch of spare keys without you knowing. The third and forth key fob doesn't have that restriction, because if you already have access to both admin key fobs it is highly likely you are the owner of the vehicle.

Once programmed to a particular vehicle, can they be re-programmed to a different one?
