Delivered with one key FOB

That hack is huge, and has taken down thousands of dealerships nationwide. I was afraid that I would have to reschedule my key delivery, but key was programmed and delivered today.

 

Just to be clear, the cyberattack was not at Toyota, but at CDK Global, a company that provides "dealership management systems" at something like 15k locations across North America. Not just Toyota dealerships, but dealerships for many brands.

Well, at least that’s a ray of hope!
I was just reading about CDK and the ransom demand in “the millions of dollars.”
Sucks to be them.

 

I received my 2nd fob today while getting the 5000-mi service. Two hours total time. Paperwork to follow due to CDK

 

Got the second key while they did 5k service. Took 3+ hours.

 

After a 7 month wait, mine was done yesterday. One hour to program at the dealership.

 

I got mine done yesterday with my 10k service. The service and key took a total of about 45 minutes while I waited. I was prepared to be there much longer, but was pleasantly surprised. Makes we wonder why some keys take 3 hours.

 

It's not the key, it's how busy the tech is that's doing it. If the tech that was scheduled to do it is an hour or two behind because the jobs they were working on earlier in the day put them behind schedule, then you're going to wait. You can try to game the system by scheduling first thing in the morning, but sometimes that doesn't work if they have a car from the previous day that needs to be wrapped up first.


(If the dealership doesn't preassign cars to techs, then it can also be if the dealership is overloading their techs. Regularly scheduling 10 hours of work into 8 hour days means something's got to give.)
