Most cars unlock using a keyless remote. While this is a convenient feature, never using
your keys to unlock your car door can result in unnecessary and costly maintenance. Over time, dirt and grime can build up in the lock cylinder preventing your car key from turning the cylinder and unlocking your car. In the event your keyless remote fails (gets wet, batteries fully discharged, etc.) and your key doesn’t turn the cylinder, you could find yourself on the outside looking in.
To avoid this possible inconvenience and possible maintenance and repair expenses Pop-A-Lock of San Angelo suggests you occasionally use your car door key to unlock your car. Doing so will keep the cylinder clear of any excessive build-up of dirt, dust or grime that would prevent the mechanisms in the cylinder from functioning properly.
Even though you have that fancy keyless remote entry device to lock and unlock your car, do it the old fashioned way every now and then. It’s OK; no one will make fun of you.
