Yeah I purchased what is like extended warranty, and it coves wheels, tires, key fobs, and dings and dents in the doors they fix. Only paid 600 for it when I bought it. Get like 1 key fob a year no deductible.

My 2012 Dodge Durango was stolen w/ the keys, so when we recovered it, we had to get a new key made. I got it towed to the dealer we bought it from and the quote they gave us...$1688.00!!! For a new key? Really? Do I have any options besides paying this ridiculous amount to the dealership? 3 locksmiths I have called do not have a ability to do it.
Perhaps the dealer was also quoting for changing all of the door locks since the key fob contain a cut key for opening the door and glove box.

Not sure how its ridiculous to check with your home owner's insurance about the loss and damage of a vehicle during a break in. Sorry to infuriate you with a question to help a guy out.

Calm down...I think he meant to just hit reply and hit the quote button instead. Based on the response, I don't think the WTF was directed at you. It was directed at the $$$$ price
