So, i lost both sets of fobs and keys for my gp a year or so ago. Had the local dealer make/program new keys. couldn't afford the extra cost of the fobs at the time(little did i know). Fast forward to now. I buy a pair of fobs off ebay for 25$, change out the njank kung or w/e batteries that came with them, and call the dealer to see how much programming would be. They see that i recently had about 2k$ in body work done from an accident there and say they'll do it for free. I'm thinkin sweet, i'm out of this for just around 30$.

I send my fiance in there to have her get them programmed while i'm at work. I sent her with a 20$ bill to tip them if everything went smooth. She calls me shortly after she got there saying they got the fobs programmed but the car wont lock at all and they're going to need to put it on there scan tool(which it was just on to program the fobs). She saw him pop the trunk so i'm sure after seeing the 1000$ worth of stereo equipment in there she surely wouldn't allow the car to be unable to lock.
I said b/s, get the fobs, show them the snap on scan tool and bluetooth obdII adapter and tell them i'll fix that. She calls me back again saying the guy thinks it will be something simple wrong and it shouldn't take long to fix, she asked how much, he said around 100$. I told her the same thing. Get outta there and don't let them talk you into ANYTHING. I just changed the oil and flushed the coolant 2 days ago, we don't need anything else.

Get home, everything works perfectly. Guy was just trying to con a woman into something she didn't need. Maybe he didn't want to do it for free, but if he would have been honest he would have got 20$ out of it for something that took 5-10min. Dude just thought he was slick. I can't be too mad as they still did it for free, but they were still lying to get money out of my fiance.

cliffs: took car to dealer to get fobs programmed, said they'd do it for free. Said computer lost control of locking the car only after seeing stereo equipment, told them to piss off, and car was fine the whole time. Got fobs programmed free
