It’s much harder than it used to be to lock your keys in the car, but it’s not impossible. Most of us have had the experience of being locked out of the car, whether it’s because we’ve misplaced our keys or locked them in the car. Although it’s not an ideal situation to find yourself in, there’s no need to panic. You have plenty of options, including calling D&R Towing for our car lockout service in NH.
If you need a car lockout service in NH, D&R Towing has you covered. Here’s what to do if you’re locked out of the car.
Track Down Your Spare
If you have a spare key or fob, tracking it down is the easiest way to get back into your car. Most people leave their spare keys at home or with a trusted friend or family member. If you know where your spare keys are, call someone who can access them and ask them to bring them to you. You might have to wait for a little bit, but at least you’ll be able to get back into your car. To ensure that your spares are always ready for action, check the batteries in the fob periodically. If the batteries are dead, you can still unlock the car with the physical key. Check your owner’s manual for the location of the keyhole if it’s concealed.
Call for Assistance
If no one can bring you a spare key, roadside assistance is your next call. Towing and roadside assistance companies have specialized tools to get into your car without damaging it. Modern cars come with increasingly sophisticated security features, so the DIY slim-jim method is unlikely to work. You’ll have to track one down anyway, so it’s better to call us and avoid damaging your car.
Contact the Manufacturer
Depending on your car’s make and model, the manufacturer may have a way to unlock it remotely. Sometimes, this is a service you can subscribe to for additional peace of mind. In other cases, you only need to register your car and contact info so the manufacturer can confirm your identity before they unlock the car for you.
