GMC Key Replacement & Programming
Sierras, Yukons and Canyons — GM proximity fobs and transponder keys programmed at your truck. At your vehicle, anywhere in the Truckee–Tahoe area.
GMC shares GM's key architecture, so Sierras and Yukons get the same treatment as their Chevy siblings: transponder keys and remote or proximity fobs by generation, programmed at the vehicle.
