Your situation

Where are the keys?

See the situations below, then describe yours in the How can we help? field.

On a seat or in the cabin

Doors locked themselves or were locked with the keys left on the seat, console or floor.

In the boot

The boot closed with the keys inside. Some vehicles need a different approach when the cabin is also locked.

In the ignition or engine running

Keys are in the ignition or a smart key is inside with the engine on. Tell us straight away if a child or pet is inside and call 000 if anyone is at risk.

Not sure where they are

If you are not certain the keys are in the car, we may need to treat this as a lost key instead.

Questions

Keys locked inside the car: common questions

Can I request help for a vehicle parked at work?

Yes. Enter the postcode and suburb of the workplace car park where the vehicle is. What matters is that the vehicle is within our service area (Caboolture to Pimpama, including Ipswich and Logan), not where you live.

What if the keys are in the boot?

Mention “In the boot” in the message or tell us on the phone. Some vehicles let the boot be released from the cabin and others do not, so we check your make, model and year before confirming the job.

Do I need to be present when the technician arrives?

Yes, you or another authorised person needs to be with the vehicle. The technician checks proof of ownership or authority before any entry work and will not open an unattended vehicle.

Service boundaries
