  • 🏪

Important: You Must Test Everything!

1On-Site Testing (REQUIRED)

Before our technician leaves, you must test all key fob functions with the technician present. This includes:

  • Vehicle starts with key/fob
  • Lock/unlock doors function properly
  • Trunk/hatch release works (if applicable)
  • Panic button functions
  • Remote start works (if applicable)

Important: If you do not test the key fob on-site and discover an issue later, warranty coverage may be subject to inspection and evaluation.

2After Technician Leaves

Once the technician has left your location, warranty coverage changes significantly:

What IS Covered After Technician Leaves:

KeyFoby is ONLY responsible for issues directly related to:

  • ✓ Key fob not functioning (complete failure of the fob)
  • ✓ Fob not starting the vehicle (ignition start failure)
  • ✓ Lock and unlock features not working (remote locking system failure)

These issues must be directly caused by our service and reported immediately.

What is NOT Covered After Technician Leaves:

KeyFoby is NOT responsible for any other issues, damages, vehicle malfunctions, pre-existing problems, or concerns that arise after the technician has left, including:

  • ✗ Physical damage (drops, cracks, broken buttons)
  • ✗ Water damage (exposure to liquids)
  • ✗ Battery issues (weak or dead battery)
  • ✗ Button problems (stuck, not responding, or worn out buttons)
  • ✗ Trunk/panic button issues (if not tested on-site)
  • ✗ Remote start issues (if not tested on-site)
  • ✗ Car problems (electrical, parts, or computer issues)
  • ✗ Pre-existing problems (issues that existed before our service)
  • ✗ Intermittent issues (problems that come and go)
  • ✗ Range/distance issues (if not reported during on-site testing)
  • ✗ Any other concerns not specifically listed as covered above
⚠️

CRITICAL: Test Everything On-Site!

This is why on-site testing is mandatory. If you don't test a function with the technician present and it doesn't work later, it will NOT be covered under warranty. Do not let the technician leave until you've tested all functions thoroughly.

📞How to Make a Warranty Claim

If you experience any issues covered under warranty, follow these steps:

1

Contact Us Immediately

Call or text us at +1 (438) 797-7776 if you experience key fob functionality issues. Explain the problem clearly.

2

Provide Service Details

Have your service date, invoice number, and description of the issue ready.

3

Document the Issue

If possible, take photos or videos showing what's not working. This helps us figure out the problem.

4

Allow Inspection

We may need to inspect the key fob and/or vehicle to determine if the issue is covered under warranty.

5

Resolution

If covered under warranty, we'll repair or replace at no charge. If not covered (damage/abuse), we'll provide a quote for repair/replacement.

📸Proof & Inspection Requirements

To ensure fair warranty claims and prevent fraud, KeyFoby reserves the right to:

  • Check the key fob and/or car to see what's wrong
  • Request photo or video evidence of the issue
  • Compare the condition of the key fob at the time of claim vs. service completion
  • Deny warranty claims if evidence of physical damage, water damage, or tampering is found
  • Charge for inspection if the issue is determined to be caused by customer damage or abuse

Note: We understand that honest issues can arise, and we're committed to resolving them fairly. However, we must protect our business from fraudulent claims. All warranty decisions are made at KeyFoby's sole discretion based on the evidence provided and inspection results.
