2008 Volvo XC90 key cylinder was shot and unable to insert my key so end up towing car back home. I inquired about the problem and either they can't tell or don't do Volvo. Polo Locksmiths requested pictures and figured out what problem was right away. He event suggested getting part price for second hand since my car is almost 20 years old. Polo Locksmiths quote was most competitive and nothing compared to the dealership with their hyper overpriced quote. Even with this I keep asking about questions I had and Polo Locksmiths answered all of them patiently. Polo Locksmiths came to my location and replaced parts, cut new keys and programmed within time he promised. If you have European cars or any model cars definitely recommend Polo Locksmiths. ChatGPT said Volvo is one of most sensitive car regarding key so not many wants to touch them, and Polo Locksmiths is one who can handle with competence. read more

A lifesaver! I needed a mobile locksmith ASAP around 10pm, so I used ye ol' trusty Yelp Quote to received competing offers from various locksmiths. Polo Locksmith was the second to respond, in less than 5 minutes. The locksmith quoted the best offer for my situation, and said he could be here in 15-30 minutes. I agreed to the service. Arriving in less than 30 minutes, the locksmith was friendly & informed me about what would be needed. He was able to cut a good deal for me. The service took about an hour, as he was having some trouble with programming & what not, but the end result was all that counted. I was quite happy, didn't spend as much as I thought I would, and Polo Locksmith arrived within no time of utilizing Yelp Quote. I highly recommend Polo Locksmith. Offering 24 hour service, he turned a major inconvenience, to an already long day, to a bright ray of hope for someone needing a little positivity. Polo Locksmith has earned my future business, which I hopefully won't need, but just in case. read more

The boys @ Polo Locksmith are absolute rockstars! They had provided services to my sister a wk or two prior to my experience. She was over the moon with their communication, professionalism & pricing. Fortunately for me, she had retained their contact info bc when my husband texted me asking me where the keys were...I had just boarded a flight! O! bother. When I contacted Polo, I was asked for the yr, make, model & VIN of my car. Being as savvy as I am, I had all that, and a bag of chips! Polo confirmed w their team of techs that they had had my fab in stock, verified w me, provided me a quote, and, made arrangements to meet w the hubs (after work) where our stranded vehicle had been parked overnight, and got down to it. I paid a deposit upfront, after confirming that they had my fab, and the remainder upon completion. All via Zelle. SUPER IMPRESSED. The boys also explained to me that the pairing of the new fab would most likely cancel out the original. For an additional fee, they'll reprogram my "frequent flyer" fab. Both services provided are still less expensive than the dealership...grrrr. AND, w where I was naughtily parked, had I been towed, I would have been looking @ a good $2k in tow fees upon returning home-OUCH! All in all: superior service, quality workmanship, excellent communication, customer service and community awareness. read more

Prompt response; excellent work. He showed up and immediately started to make the duplicate fob which matched the original. His fee was about $150 less than the dealer and more convenient since he came to my Also cash discount!! read more

Polo Locksmith - 2 transponders and new key fob - Keys & Locksmiths Near Me - Escondido, California

Polo Locksmith saved my bacon! My wife and I were in Anaheim over Valentine's Day weekend. Monday morning, we're checking out of the hotel, and we've somehow lost the keys to our 2013 Volvo C70. The car is a convertible hardtop, so jimmying the window was very likely to break it, and we didn't know if the key was in the car anyway. So, it was looking like a tow to the dealership and $800 (and a few days) for Volvo to program a new key. Thankfully, our tow truck driver referred us to Polo. Polo came to the hotel, prepared to pick the door lock to get in, and program a new key on the spot if we needed it, and for less than what Volvo was going to charge. Polo was able to safely pick the door lock and get us into the car. Unfortunately, it was raining buckets on the poor guy, which made lockpicking not only unpleasant but also much more difficult than usual. But he stayed with it until he got us in. We never did find the lost key, but by the grace of [insert deity of your choice here], I had placed the spare in the center console. Overall, a very frustrating day. But Polo came to the rescue. If I'm ever in the area and need locksmith services again, they're my first call. read more

Thank you Santos at Polo Locksmith. He was able to drill out the ignition cylinder that had seized in the lock position on our Chevy truck. He was at her house in less than a half an hour of our phone call. He was able to quote a price previously by messaging back and through on Yelp. He was quick in messaging me back, no wait times and when he got to the house, he was efficient, knowledgeable and kind which is a plus nowadays. He didn't try to overcharge or add additional fees the price he quoted was the price we paid. I would recommend this company for any issues that you have getting locked out of your car or your house. Thank you again. If we ever have any more problems, you will be the company we call. read more

Polo Locksmith did a great job rekeying the locks. After remodeling the house, my contractor replaced several doors including new knobs/locks. I wanted the new locks to be keyed to the old locks to match the existing key sets. Not that my need was urgent, but they were able to come out that same day to rekey the locks. read more

My son was down to one broken key and FOB for his 2013 Honda Fit and, given that he's notorious for losing things, I knew we were playing with fire. As he's a student I wanted to make this as cost-effective for him as possible. Polo Locksmith responded right away and set a very competitive price to cut and program 2 keys if I met them in Anaheim ($125 total). The exchange to ensure we were set was very quick. I sent a picture and a link to the FOBs purchased off Amazon to ensure he thought they were compatible - he was very honest and said if Amazon confirmed they were a match then they would probably work but he wouldn't know until he tested them. I met Polo Locksmith in the parking lot of a O'Reilly's so felt safe meeting with the locksmith. He tested the FOBs right away, showing me the reader and explaining what he needed to see in order to verify a match. Once verified I was asked to wait in my car while he finished programming the FOBs and cutting the keys. I was in a bit of a rush as I had a doctor's appointment to get to - the locksmith was considerate of my time and was back with the cut keys in about 15 minutes. He sat in the driver's seat and finished programming the FOBs by connecting to the OBDII reader - within 5 minutes he showed me that both keys worked and explained that the broken FOB we had been using would no longer work. All-in-all very happy with the service, quality and value. Total cost to obtain two working keys $150 (FOBs from Amazon $20 and $130 for locksmith - we could only afford to tip $5, wish I could have done more for such amazing service!). read more

Had issue with door not locking on my van's sliding door. Took it to the dealer, who kept it for four days before they could take a look at it. Paid $90 for diagnostics. They wanted over $1,500 for parts and labor. I contacted a few vendors via yelp. Polo Locksmith was the best with reply with parts and labor. Others also wanted to first charge for diagnostics. When the parts arrived he came over to my home and completed the install. The installation looked very technical. Took almost 2 Hours. Total cost was less than 1/3 of what the dealer wanted. Happy with communication, quality, and price. read more

Fair pricing, quick service, friendly customer service and informative. They were able to show up and turn a bad day into a better one. My key fob was not working and somehow my car was on, burning gas and idling. They were able to unlock the door for me, allowing me to turn the car off. read more

Honestly, I have nothing but good words! Santos was the one who helped me and he was fast and kind. Since it's family owned, they have different locations and they will text you the location when you schedule an appointment. I had to replace my car keys, the manual lock on my keys, and the lock cylinder on my car. I texted asking for a quote and they responded quickly. I also was looking for other quotes, and they are one of the lower costing services that provide great quality and efficiency. I asked when I could schedule an appointment (earliest possible) at around 6pm, and got an appointment for the next day at 10am. I had a bit of a commute, about 35 minutes and Santos was already there and waiting. He told me it would take 1-2hours but he finished in about 38 minutes which was great! He told me what was being done and what part he was on, keeping me updated throughout the process. Overall, great service. They accept cash, zelle, and venmo. read more
