This locksmith is wonderful! I bought a new/used 2017 Acadia that only came with one broken key fob. The GMC dealer wanted to charge way too much for a new fob, so I ordered one on Amazon and headed to Don’s Locksmith in Riverside off Arlington & 91 fwy. Their service was not good, waited a long time and when I finally got helped by a technician, he was not able to program the key fob. They did not look for any solutions, they just let me leave. So, I went to Master Locksmith shop on Arlington & Tyler in Riverside and they were friendly, fast and affordable. I was so grateful they were able to help me with no problem. I will be returning here for all my keys in the future.

I just replaced a key and fob here for my 2019 Jeep Wrangler JLU. He was 1/2 the price of some places...knew exactly what he was doing. He had it cut, programmed and ready to go in less than 30 minutes from the time I walked in. Excellent work and service.
