Subaru Forester Key Replacement in Santa Rosa
2013-2026 · Transponder Key, Smart Key, Key Fob · From $150+
The Forester is the other Subaru we see constantly. Trail runners near Spring Lake, families in the Sebastopol area, and commuters on the 101 corridor all drive Foresters. The 2014–2018 Forester uses a transponder key. The 2019+ switched to push-button start with a proximity smart key. A Forester owner at the Spring Lake parking lot dropped her key in the lake while feeding the ducks with her kids. We programmed a new smart key fob at the parking lot in 30 minutes. She also learned there is an emergency backup key hidden inside every Subaru smart fob — we showed her how to find it.
Subaru Forester Key System Overview
The Subaru Forester (2013-2026) has used multiple key technologies across its production years. Earlier model years feature transponder chip keys that must be cut to the correct profile and programmed to match the vehicle's immobilizer. Newer versions use smart key proximity fobs with push-button start. This model supports Transponder Key, Smart Key, Key Fob. We handle the whole thing on-site. Cut the key or fob, program it to your Subaru Forester, test every function, you drive away.
