Older Kia Models and the Security Campaign

There were some Kia models produced around the years 2011 to 2021 that did not have an engine immobilizer installed at the factory in the US. However, depending on the particular model, year, and trim level, some Kia models may have various key replacement requirements compared to other Kia cars with electronic immobilizer.

Sliding Doors, Tailgates and Ex Rental Cars

The modern Kia transponders may control not just the vehicle locking and starting but also such additional features as remote start, sliding doors, or the power tailgate. After the programming is done, our technician checks all functions controlled by the fob to ensure that the replacement fob works properly.
