Ford Escape key replacement and programming
Escape went from PATS keys with separate remotes to integrated keyheads and flip keys, then Intelligent Access on upper trims. The 2020 redesign changed the fob again.
Escape key systems by model year
Year ranges follow Escape generations and are approximate. Trim, build date and factory options can change the system within a year, so we confirm it from your VIN before dispatch.

Lost every Escape key?
If no working key remains, we can program a new key to most Ford vehicles at the car. Many Fords add a timed security wait during programming, so an All Keys Lost job takes longer than a spare. We confirm your system from the VIN first.

Important compatibility notice — final key compatibility must be confirmed
The key images, vehicle models, and year ranges shown on this page are provided as a general identification guide and may not apply to every vehicle. The manufacturer may use different key systems within the same model year depending on trim level, production date, manufacturing location, ignition type, and factory equipment. Final compatibility must be confirmed using the vehicle’s VIN, ignition type, existing key or fob, and vehicle information before service. The images are representative examples and do not guarantee an exact visual match.
A current registration or title and matching government-issued photo identification must be verified before automotive key, lock, or immobilizer service is performed.
