lost my keys completely
how should I replace
I thought about a screwdriver but remembered there is a chip
locksmith says he can put one in for 200
is there a way to drive this with bypassing the ignition ?

Nope, if you have triple A, have it towed to the dealer. They have the equipment to make a key and program it into the PATS.

Maybe. Still probably about one hour labor plus two keys.

Call the dealer and ask them.

dealer can't make a key unless you have the key code. ford codes only go back 10 years. they can make one up and put in a new key cylinder but then your key won't work your doors.

If you have comprenhensive insurance, lock-out service and new keys will be provided by them, it's what you are paying for.

Also, Pop A Lock service will do it for about $125.00 for both keys.

Lost keys and broken glass are 2 very good reasons to have a low deductable comprehensive rider on your insurance. I've experienced a broken back glass on my Mark VIII due to hail, lost keys and a broken windshield from a stone on the Interstate. 0 deductable covered them all.
