16 THINGS TO KNOW BEFORE STARTING YOUR VEHICLE
Emergency Unlocking Feature
In the case of an accident, the doors unlock automatically
a short time after a strong deceleration is detected, such
as in a collision (this is intended to aid rescue and exit).
However, the key must still be in the ignition.
Start Lockout
Removing the key from the ignition switch activates the
start lockout. The engine cannot be started. Turning the
key to the ON/RUN position deactivates the start lock-
out. If the engine cannot be started, and the messages
START and ERROR are shown in the odometer display
field, the system is not operational. Contact an autho-
rized dealer.
REMOTE KEYLESS ENTRY
This feature allows you to lock or unlock the vehicle from
remote locations using a hand-held transmitter located in
the key Fob. You don't have to point the transmitter at the
vehicle to activate the system. The vehicle doors, rear
liftgate/decklid, fuel filler door, and center console (road-
ster only) can be locked and unlocked using the remote
control.
To Unlock the Doors
Press and release the UNLOCK button on the key Fob.
NOTE: If within 40 seconds of unlocking with the key
Fob, neither door is opened, the key is not inserted in the
ignition switch, or the central locking switch is not
activated, the vehicle will automatically lock.

Questions and answers
I have a 2004 Chrysler Crossfire 2 Dr coupe and lost the only key , no one has the ability to duplicate . I need a key, what do I do?
You have several options to obtain a replacement key for a 2004 Chrysler Crossfire 2 Dr coupe:
1. Purchase New Key Fobs – You can buy two new Key Fobs from a supplier of your choice. Once you confirm they work, you can discard the old key if it's damaged.
2. Dealer Replacement – Chrysler dealerships offer replacement keys, but they are expensive, typically costing between $250 and $350.
3. Locksmith Services – A locksmith can create a new key by either:
- Making a key to fit the lock.
- Replacing or reprogramming the lock to match a new key.
- If in the Georgia area, a locksmith can either travel to your location (for an extra fee) or you can bring the lock to them for service.
4. Manual Key Option – The Crossfire has a manual key lock on the driver’s door, so you can also consider getting a Valet Key made for backup access.
Choose the option that best fits your budget and convenience.
