Peterbilt Car Key Replacement
Automotive Locksmith
Top Rated Nationally, But Local To You
We cut replacement keys for Peterbilt trucks at the truck. That includes the 379, the 389 and the 579, along with other models. If your Peterbilt is stuck at a yard or a shipper’s dock because of a key, we come to it.
A 579 or 389 with the keys locked in the cab is opened on site, the same way we handle a car lockout. Nothing has to be cut, and the Peterbilt keeps its original keys.
Call with the model and year so we can confirm the key type and bring the right blanks. More about our vehicle key work is on the car key replacement page.
Most Peterbilt keys are plain metal keys, cut to a code. Some newer trucks have a chip in the key that the truck checks before it starts, and that chip has to be programmed. We’ll sort that out by phone.
Find your Peterbilt key
Pick the year and model to see which key your Peterbilt takes. Each listing shows the key type, the transponder chip, the remote’s FCC ID, the OEM part number and the Ilco key blank for Peterbilt models from 1990 to 2007. If a Peterbilt listing says “Call to confirm,” we haven’t confirmed that detail yet.
This Peterbilt list is a guide only. Some Peterbilt keys changed partway through a model year, and some Peterbilt models take a key that isn’t listed here. Before you buy a key, call a Peterbilt dealer with your VIN for the part number.
Lost or Stolen Peterbilt Keys
If the key is lost, we get the cuts from the ignition or door lock, or from the key code, and cut a new key on site. We'll ask for a license plus registration, or for company trucks, proof that you're authorized.
If the key was stolen, we rekey the ignition and door locks so the old key no longer works. On trucks with an immobilizer the stolen key can also be erased electronically.
Broken Peterbilt Keys
If your Peterbilt key broke, hold on to the pieces. We read the cuts from them and make the replacement. We also remove a blade that's stuck in the ignition.
Call (484) 891-1922 with the Peterbilt's year and model. We'll set out pricing and availability, then an estimated time of arrival for your location. We come to the truck anywhere in the Lehigh Valley, at a yard, a warehouse dock or a truck stop. See the towns we serve. Keys for other heavy trucks are on our semi truck key replacement page.

What to have ready
The Peterbilt year and model, the truck's location and the state of your keys are the three questions. Those details are all we need for Peterbilt pricing and availability. Lawful possession of the Peterbilt truck is confirmed as part of the job.
Peterbilt Keys: Quick Answers
Does a Peterbilt key cost more at night?
No. An emergency Peterbilt key costs what a scheduled one costs; the pricing structure is the same during all our hours.
What if the new Peterbilt key stops working?
The Peterbilt work is guaranteed against craftsmanship and the parts against factory defects.
Is it easier to get a second Peterbilt key while I still have one?
Yes, and it is the best time to do it. With one Peterbilt key working, a second is cut and paired on the spot.
Do I have to tow my Peterbilt 579 to a dealer for a key?
No. The Peterbilt key is cut where the truck is parked, and programmed if the truck runs a chip key.
