Excellent replacement key

Product works great! Take it to my local locksmith and he will program it in minutes. Although the battery was dead when you received the goods. It cost me $50 to program and cut it, much better than the dealers.

Pros
  • Comfortable to use
Cons
  • Fine

Key fob buttons no longer work

The key fob worked fine for about 9 months, then it fell ONCE and the key fob buttons stopped working completely. I had to pay $150 to have it programmed and now I can't lock and remote start my car, I'm very unhappy.

Pros
  • Brings joy
Cons
  • Good, but not great

Maybe not what you want

I had to program it at the dealer for $80 anyway and since it's not a genuine Nissan key the car computer now says there is a key error. This does not prevent it, but we cannot eliminate the error. Of course, it was cheaper than buying a key from Nissan, which would have cost $300.

Pros
  • Great for me
Cons
  • Secret

The rounded part of the fob that connects to the keys broke

I bought the key and fob in April 2019. In the second week of August 2019 the key fob broke at the rounded tip that connects to my other keys and the broken piece is lost. I paid for the key fob AND an additional $90 for programming since my car has a remote auto start. I'm officially back where I started. I've had my original Altima key fob for 4 years and the door lock plate fell off BUT the hook portion is still intact. Please pay attention to the reinforcement of the keychain hook!

Pros
  • The best in its niche
Cons
  • Only available in black

Very glad I bought this one

It needs to be programmed at the dealer but I was going to reprogram the original FOB there anyway after losing it. The service writer was a very nice guy and said he would like to try programming my FOB Revain at the same time, but didn't have much luck with the FOB after the sale. When they were done he was happy to say my FOB aftermarket was going great. So once again glad I bought this one!

Pros
  • Few competitors
Cons
  • Something else

Proper fit and research

Very happy and satisfied with my experience. After deciding to save hundreds of dollars, I remained optimistic, although some dissatisfied customers advised only buying from the dealer. Received my new "unprogrammed" key fob quickly and found a great local locksmith the next day. Before taking my car and key fob to the shop, they explained that there is no guarantee and they will still charge $50 if the programming fails. I agreed and within 10 minutes I had my reprogrammed fob and cut key. Not

Pros
  • Consistent test results
Cons
  • Some imperfections

Less than happy

Paid a locksmith $100 for the FOB program. After that, FOB only works 2 of the 3 ways it needs to work to start the car. The remote start function works, pressing the ignition button with the actual key fob works, but the main and most basic method of just pressing the ignition button does NOT work. I get the message "Key not found". (and yes - I hit pause while trying) The locksmith confirmed that this is the correct FOB for my machine, but determined that it was the FOB that failed, not the…

Pros
  • Great product
Cons
  • Not happy
