We make Dodge keys on site in Las Vegas, Henderson and North Las Vegas, 24/7, whether you need a plain cut key for an older Dodge or a transponder key for a 2000s pickup. We also program the fob style key used by many Chargers, Challengers and Journeys, and since we cut and program at the vehicle, no tow is needed in most cases.
If you lost every key or locked one inside the cab, start with our page on lost car keys with no spare, which explains what documents to gather while our technician heads your way.
- Fob style keyMany Dodges from the late 2000s on use a plastic fob that slides into the dash and turns exactly like a conventional key.
- Ram is its own brand nowRam trucks separated from Dodge around 2010 and became their own brand, and we make and program keys for both badges.
- Classic muscleOlder Chargers and Challengers from the 1960s and 1970s take plain cut keys, which we can produce by decoding the lock.
- Spare blade insideThe fob style key holds a small metal key that you pull out to open the door when the battery dies.

Which Dodge Key Do You Have?
Dodge used plain cut keys for decades, added transponder keys around the late 1990s, and later moved many models to a fob style key and then to push to start.
- Plain cut keyOlder Dodge cars and trucks use a metal key with no chip inside, and it is the least expensive key we make. We can cut one from the original key code or by decoding the lock on the door or ignition.
- Chip keyIt looks like a normal key with a thick plastic head, and it appeared on many Dodges around the late 1990s. The engine will not keep running until the transponder chip inside is programmed to the vehicle.
- Fob style keyThis is a short plastic fob with lock buttons that you push into the dash and turn, and many Chargers, Challengers, Journeys and Avengers use it. We program the replacement fob to the vehicle and cut the small hidden blade.
- Push to start fobHigher trims and newer models let you keep the fob in a pocket and press a button to start the engine. Replacing it means programming a brand new fob to the vehicle before it will operate.
Dodge Models and Their Keys
Dodge Ram

Older Ram pickups through the late 1990s used plain cut keys, and transponder keys arrived around the end of that decade. Later trucks moved to remote head keys and then to fob style keys, and many newer Rams offer push to start.
Dodge Challenger

Classic Challengers from the 1970s take plain cut keys that we can produce by decoding the lock. The modern Challenger from 2008 on uses a fob style key that goes into the dash, and many later cars have push to start instead.
Dodge Charger

The modern Charger started in 2006 with a transponder key that has remote buttons in the head, and around 2011 it moved to a fob style key. Push to start became common after that, while classic Chargers from the muscle car years use plain cut keys.
Dodge Dart

The Dart sold from the 2013 to 2016 model years uses a flip key with a transponder chip and remote buttons, and some trims have push to start with a keyless fob. The original Dart from the 1960s and 1970s takes a simple plain cut key.
Dodge Journey

The Journey was sold from 2009 to 2020, and most of them use a fob style key that slides into the dash. Many trims have push to start instead, and both versions need to be programmed to the SUV before they will start it.
Dodge Avenger

The Avenger sedan from 2008 to 2014 uses a fob style key that goes into the dash and turns. The older Avenger coupe from the late 1990s uses a completely different key, so mention the model year when you call.
Dodge Neon

Early Neons from the mid 1990s use plain cut keys, while many later Neons have a transponder key, although not every one does. Look for a thick plastic head on your key, or give us the VIN and we will check the original equipment for you.
How We Make a New Dodge Key
- 1
Tell us car or truck
Give us the year and model, and tell us whether the vehicle starts with a key, a fob in the dash or a button.
- 2
We meet you there
We come to your driveway, the job site or the equipment yard, so the truck never has to leave where it sits.
- 3
Make the key
We cut the blade first, then program the transponder chip or the fob so the engine will start and keep running.
- 4
Check it twice
We start the vehicle several times and test the remote buttons before we consider the job finished.
What a Dodge Key Costs in Las Vegas
A plain cut key for an older Dodge usually runs $50 to $180 in Las Vegas, while a chip key with programming is typically $150 to $350. Push to start fobs cost more than that, and nights, weekends and holidays usually add $25 to $75 to the total.
The final number depends on the key type, the model year, and whether you still have one working key we can start from, and you always hear the price before we begin any work.
Make a Spare Before You Need One
Plenty of Dodge and Ram owners operate on a single key until the day it disappears. Copying a working key is the simplest job we do, while a call with no key at all takes more time and additional programming steps, so get a spare cut now and store it somewhere other than the truck itself. Browse the other car keys we make and program.
Owning a Dodge in Las Vegas
Dodge and Ram trucks do real work around Las Vegas, sitting all day at job sites and equipment yards in the heat, and we come directly to those locations. We also see plenty of Chargers and Challengers in apartment complexes and casino garages, plus a few classic Mopars at car shows. If you are stuck anywhere in the valley, contact us and we will head your way.
Questions We Get Asked
What key does a 2015 Dodge Charger use?
Most Chargers from 2011 onward use a fobik key, which combines the key and remote in one piece, and many also offer keyless entry with push to start. Earlier Chargers from 2006 used a standard transponder key. We can make and program either type at your location in Las Vegas.
Can you program a key for a 2014 Dodge Ram?
Yes, we can, because Ram trucks have used transponder keys since around the late 1990s, and most trucks from the 2014 era use a fob style key that turns in the dashboard, with push to start on certain trims. The chip has to be programmed before the engine will run, and we handle that at your truck without a tow.
How much does it cost to replace a Dodge key?
We can give you an exact price once we know your model, year and key type, and the time of day matters as well. A metal key for an older Neon is a simpler job than a fobik key that needs programming. Call us with those details, and you will hear the full price before any work starts.
Do I need my registration to get a new Dodge key?
Yes, along with a photo ID, because we verify ownership before making any car key. We ask to see your ID plus the registration or title, which keeps keys out of the wrong hands. If your papers are locked inside the vehicle, we can open it first and review them there.
