We hear this almost every day. The flip keys and remote head keys supplied by the car makers just don’t hold up under heavy use. The worst are Honda, followed by Chevrolet & Ford. They either physically break apart, or the buttons wear out.
The one in the picture is a Kia Optima and the flip key was about to break. Instead of selling the customer another flip key that would break, we provided a separate key and remote. That way, if the remote breaks, you just have to replace the remote, not the entire thing.
Call us if you want to see if a similar option is available for your car.
