Glenview Lock And Locksmith Transponder Key Programming Glenview, IL
The spike in car thefts between the 1970s and 1990s pushed the automotive industry to redefine the security measures installed in vehicles. Evidently, the mechanical lock & key systems weren’t doing a great job at keeping the vehicles safe. Most keys could be copied easily and even with no keys, the vehicles could easily be hotwired. To prevent all that, in 1995, a new piece of tech was introduced that managed to revolutionize vehicle security – the transponder keys.
