The keys from the door lock replacement recall are hitting the secondary market.

Apparently, when the door lock assemblies are replaced under recall the keys are replaced as well. I wonder aloud how one might repurpose these or whether it would be worth the effort.

In my case they only replaced the metal key, not the fob. The new metal key went into the original fob.

The service manager did say this was the standard AU process.

That was my understanding of the work done, dunno.

Thanks for the first hand observations related to the lock replacements, my Trialmaster was just beyond the range of the effected serial numbers for replacement. I bought 4 of these keys imagining the key portion can be recut (because it can be) and the fob portion can be transferred like most fobs are using a master key in the ignition and pairing a new fob manually.

I wonder aloud how many versions of the cut keys exist. I bet not many and wonder how many are “close enough” to function in the lock cylinder.
