KeylessOption Key Fob Replacement for 2011-2020 Chrysler and Dodge - 2

In this review the focus is on a practical replacement: the KeylessOption complete keyless entry remote, sold as a 2 pack for Chrysler and Dodge models from 2011 through 2020. The bottom line is simple: this is for owners who need an OEM-style, ready-to-program smart key fob that matches the original button layout and includes an uncut slide-out valet key. The reviewer found the remotes arrived unlocked and fully tested, making them a convenient choice when a dealer or locksmith will perform programming.

Key Features

• Fully tested unit: Each fob arrives checked and ready to be programmed by a dealer or automotive locksmith, reducing the chance of receiving a defective remote.
• Uncut valet key included: The slide-out valet key insert is included at the bottom of the remote so users can have a backup mechanical key available once cut to match the vehicle.
• OEM compatibility: Designed to be compatible with M3N-40821302 style remotes so it matches original form and function for supported Chrysler and Dodge models.
• Push-to-start support: The remote is suitable for vehicles equipped with push-to-start systems, ensuring it works for keyless start examples in the vehicle list.
• Two-pack value: Supplying two remotes in one purchase gives a spare fob or a second programmed unit for a second driver at a lower overall cost.

Who It's For

This replacement is aimed at owners of compatible Chrysler 300, Dodge Charger, Challenger, Durango, Journey, and Dart models from the specified years who need a like-for-like smart key fob and plan to have programming done by a dealer or professional locksmith. It suits anyone who values receiving an unlocked, tested remote rather than one preprogrammed to an unknown vehicle.

It is not for do-it-yourselfers seeking a plug-and-play preprogrammed key out of the box, nor for vehicles that do not have the same button pattern or lack push-to-start functionality. Buyers should verify the original remote matches the button layout before purchasing.
