Traditional key...$5.00 + cost of key.
Laser key - $25.00 + cost of key.
The fee is really more for the labour to cut the key vs the actual key code.
We do not give out key codes under any circumstance. We only use codes to cut keys for customers in front of us and we don't tell them the code.
While on the subject...how do you guys handle wholesale/mechanical shops asking for cut keys. We deal with a few shops who have fleet customers. They call and ask for keys all the time and we send them down. It's never been an issue, but we never follow the same protocol we do in person (ownership, drivers license, copy of each, put in a file). We have no issues with the shop in question, but I doubt GM would see it that way. But asking a wholesale shop to get ownership and license of their customer...to give to us...to get a key...especially if it's a fleet company...I could see being problematic. For now we let it slide...I've been here over 5 years and have never had an audit regarding our key code searches.
