Chevrolet Impala Key Types Change Across Model Years
Chevrolet key systems changed over time, but a broad model-year pattern does not confirm the exact key for your Impala. We check your vehicle’s year and trim before choosing a replacement key or fob.
Through about 2006 — plain metal keys on some older Chevrolets
Many older Chevrolet trucks and vans used plain metal keys. That fact does not establish which key an Impala uses, so we identify your car’s key system rather than relying on a general Chevrolet timeline.
From about 2007 — chip keys common on many models
Most Chevrolet models from about 2007 use chip keys. The system in an Impala can vary, so the model year alone is not enough to select a key.
Later years — flip keys and smart keys
Later Chevrolet models also use flip and smart keys. Bring the existing key or fob if you have one; comparing it with the vehicle helps us identify the correct replacement.
Check Your Impala Key Fob Before Blaming the Car
A Chevrolet Impala key fob that stops working can point to a fob issue, while trouble with more than one key may call for a closer look at the vehicle. These simple checks help us understand the symptom when you call.
- Try the fob close to the car — Notice whether its buttons work only when you stand near the Impala or do not respond at all. Tell us what changes with distance.
- Try another key or fob, if you have one — If a spare works normally, the issue may be limited to the first key. If both behave the same way, report that detail before we come out.
- Check whether the key turns smoothly — A key that sticks or feels rough in the ignition needs a different check from a remote that will not respond. Stop forcing it and describe the resistance when you call.
- Note what still works — Tell us whether the key starts the car, whether the remote buttons respond, and whether the problem affects one or all keys. Those details help us prepare for the right service.

Chevrolet Impala Key Replacement for the Problems You Notice
Impala drivers may need a replacement after everyday wear, a misplaced key, or a fob that no longer works as expected. We provide mobile Chevrolet key replacement and check the specific key and vehicle before beginning.
A worn, cracked, or sticking key
Visible damage or resistance in the ignition can make a key harder to use. Stop turning a key that sticks; forcing it can make the problem worse.
A lost key with no spare
We make a new car key on site when all keys are lost. Car key replacement starts at $110, and we check the Impala’s key system before cutting and preparing the replacement.
A fob that does not respond
A dead fob battery and a fob that needs replacement are different problems. We can provide key fob programming and assess the fob and vehicle to identify the service needed.
Keys locked inside the Impala
Tell us the key is inside the car when you call so we can address the lockout rather than a replacement-key request. See our car lockout service for this situation.
Bought a Used Impala With Just One Key?
Make a spare while your current key still works: that gives you a second option before the only key is misplaced, damaged, or stops working. Ask the seller which key came with the Impala and whether any other keys were handed over, then tell us the model year, trim, and whether your key starts the car and operates the fob. We use those details to identify the key system and prepare the right replacement; Chevrolet Impala key replacement starts at $110. If you also drive another Chevrolet, see our Colorado keys and Suburban keys pages for those models.

Frequently asked questions
Can you replace a Chevrolet Impala key that is worn, cracked, or sticking in the ignition?
Yes, we provide mobile car key replacement and check the Impala’s key system before preparing a replacement. If the key sticks, do not force it; tell us whether it turns at all and whether you have another working key.
Can you help if I locked my keys inside my Impala in San Luis Obispo?
Yes. Call (805) 977-6159 and tell us the keys are inside the Impala so we can handle the car lockout. Our stated arrival time within 15 minutes applies inside San Luis Obispo.
How long does Chevrolet Impala key replacement take at the car?
The time depends on the Impala’s key system and whether you have a working key or have lost them all. We check the vehicle and key situation at your location before giving you a job-specific time estimate.
Will my old lost Impala key still work after you make a replacement?
Do not assume a replacement has made a lost key unusable. Tell us that a key is missing and share the Impala’s year and trim; we check what can be done for its specific key system before service.
