Don’t Risk It; Call a Locksmith!
You just locked your keys in the car. We’ve all been there, but it’s one of the most frustrating and inconvenient scenarios to be stuck in. Whether you were in a hurry to get out of the car and you accidentally left the keys in the ignition, or they fell out of your coat pocket as you put something in the trunk and shut it, you now have to choose between breaking into your own car and calling a mobile locksmith.
Always call a locksmith. Here’s why:
1. You could hurt yourself.
While you may think you can easily open your door with a screwdriver, crowbar, or coat hanger, it’s not as simple as it sounds. These instruments can be harmful if used the wrong way. You don’t want to risk injuring yourself in addition to being locked out of your car. You already have enough problems to deal with!
2. You could damage your car.
Vehicles are designed to be theft-proof, which is why they aren’t easy to break into. You could scratch the paint, damage the window seals, break a window or two, bust the door handle, or ruin the lock mechanisms themselves. You might be trying to save money by unlocking your car yourself; however, you could be paying to fix the damage you caused later on.
3. You could face legal repercussions.
Picture this: you locked your keys in your car in a public place. Someone sees you trying to break into the vehicle, thinks it’s someone else’s, and calls the police. Now you have to prove the vehicle is yours, but all the paperwork is in the glovebox – in the locked car. Instead of becoming the talk of the town as the newest carjacker, call a locksmith in the first place.
