Cutting and programming a duplicate while a working key exists is far quicker than generating keys from scratch after everything is lost. One inexpensive spare now can prevent a stressful, pricier call down the road.
Spares for transponder and proximity vehicles are cut and then programmed to your immobilizer so they start the engine, not just open the doors. Keep the spare somewhere separate from your primary key, such as at home rather than in the same bag.
