The Dodge immobiliser and what it means for your key
Dodge vehicles use the Chrysler SKIM / SKREEM / RF Hub. Because the immobiliser and the key must recognise each other, cutting a blade alone is never enough. The key has to be paired to your specific vehicle. Consequently Urban Locksmith programs on site rather than simply cutting metal. Dodge shares its immobiliser family with Jeep, Chrysler and Ram, so coverage is consistent across the group.
What usually goes wrong on a Dodge
Grand Caravan sliding-door and ignition faults still make up a large share, despite the nameplate ending.
