Tangent but I have a 2016 Toyota 4Runner. Great car and fits my family and needs perfectly. The key fob broke so I needed to get a replacement, I got a blank and had a locksmith cut and program the blank. He must have not done it right because it worked and then I got stranded cause it must have lost its pair to the car or something. Nothing wrong with the vehicle, the engine wouldn’t start because of the key. I do road trips through the desert SW and other remote places, if I have the key I need the car to start no matter what. I really don’t want my keys to require a battery either. I wish there was a way to bypass the rfid/BLE or whatever it is.
