Why customers in Lincolnton call us for key fob
Lincolnton's dealer row is a short one — the two Abernethy stores sit directly across East Main Street from each other, covering Chevrolet, Buick, GMC and the Chrysler-Dodge-Jeep-Ram side. For any other brand it's Gastonia or across the lake. What Lincolnton has in quantity is manufacturing: American Woodmark with around 700 employees, Timken, Bosch, Cataler making automotive catalysts, LeeBoy building paving equipment. That's thousands of vehicles sitting in plant car parks through full shifts, which is precisely when a marginal fob decides it's finished. We come to the lot or the driveway and program the replacement there, from $120 for the brands we carry.

Common key fob calls near Lincolnton
Manufacturing plant employee car park
A worker finished a shift and found the fob had gone dead while the car sat. Both Abernethy stores long closed, no spare in the vehicle, and a drive home ahead.
Programmed a replacement fob in the employee lot at shift change — roughly 25 minutes on-site, and no after-hours surcharge for the evening call. Drove home the same night.
Betty G. Ross Park pool car park
A parent's fob went into the pool in a swim bag during a summer afternoon. Dried out that evening, worked for a few days, then stopped responding entirely.
Chlorinated water is unusually hard on fob electronics. Replaced rather than repaired, programmed at the vehicle in the park car park, and the damaged unit wiped from the car's memory.
