Dodge Caliber Key Replacement

Whichever yours is, DFW Keys 4 Cars cuts and programs it at your location, 24/7: spare keys, lost-everything replacements, fob programming, and lockouts. Call (214) 717-6398.
About Caliber Keys
The table below is our verified key reference for the Dodge Caliber — model years, key types, and the transponder/immobilizer family each generation uses. Generations overlap at boundary years, so we always confirm the exact part by VIN before dispatching.
| Model / Generation | Years | Key Type | Transponder / Immobilizer | Blade / FCC |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| Caliber | 2007–2012 | Remote-head transponder key | Philips Crypto2 / Hitag2 / ID46 (PCF7941) | Y160 / Y164-PT (CY24) |
Security System & Immobilizer
Dodge uses Chrysler’s Sentry Key system — 4D64 then ID46 transponders, the dash-module fobik, and Keyless Enter-N-Go 4A proximity fobs on modern cars.
On the Caliber specifically, the immobilizer families we see are: Philips Crypto2 / Hitag2 / ID46 (PCF7941). A key that is cut correctly but not programmed to this system will turn the locks and never start the engine — programming is the half of the job that matters.

Dodge Caliber Key FAQ
I lost the only key to my Caliber. What now?
We come to the vehicle, verify ownership, cut a new key from the VIN, and program it on-site. No tow, no dealer wait — this is our most common Caliber call.
Will a hardware-store copy start my Caliber?
It will open the doors and nothing else on transponder-era cars — the chip inside the key must be programmed to the immobilizer, which is the part we do curbside.
