Has anyone had to replace the key for the XTS, dealer said $500.00 to replace & program. I see them on e-bay for $50.00 and up, can locksmith program & cut these or does it have to be dealer.
Thanks Joe

In my past experiences, it's been better to get them from the dealer. More expensive definitely but guaranteed to actually work.

You can buy after market ones but you have to take it to the dealer for the programming of it. No choice there.

You could read page 2-5 in your owners manual for some insight.

Thanks, I may try to program it like the manual states, that is probably what the dealer does.

Yes, as long as you have one good key, the manual p2-5 and 2-6 should enable an e-bay key to be programmed.
Sure worth a try before parting with $500!
