Reviewed by Shannon Martin, Licensed Insurance Agent.
“If you want to avoid paying out-of-pocket costs for a locksmith, the first step would be to get in touch with your
car insurance
company.
If you have
roadside assistance
on your policy, it may include lockout services and towing expenses.
If you have a
AAA
membership,
roadside assistance
is included with it.
With AAA, a roadside technician will attempt to open your car. If they can’t unlock it, they’ll tow your vehicle to a place of your choosing.
Should you have a spare key, you can see if a friend or family member could bring it to you.
If none of these options work, you will likely need to call a tow truck or a locksmith.”

Can you change from 2WD to 4WD while driving?
I live in New England. During winter, snow squalls can occur without warning and dump several inches of snow in minutes. Since I might be driving during one of these anomalies, I want to make sure I can put my car in 4WD. Can you switch from 2WD to 4WD while driving?
