  1. '14 Connect

    Wheel lock key

    HELP IS HERE!!. I know this is an old thread but had to tell everyone what I just went through hopefully it helps. My '14 Passenger Connect I lost the security lug key.. These are rare Ford key locks that NO ONE can get off no matter what people say. I changed my flat tire on side of the road and when I left I left the lock on the wheel so it flew off in traffic somewhere. Went back at 5am and walked the freeway 3 miles up and down to find it no luck. Talked to 5 Discount Tires, 5 Firestones, countless machine shops with no luck. Even talked to 4 different Ford Dealerships Service Dept and parts all were basically clueless with no recommendations. Even with VIN cant order key...People mentioned Ford has the Master key so I was stumped.. I finally took the Bull by the horns, I marched angrily back to the big shop area where all the grease monkeys were and shouted loud "please help me!!" They all looked at me and 4 Mechanics walked over to this big case of Master wheel lock keys like a briefcase and 15 different combos of the same key were in there. My jaw hit the ground because 1 of them were the answer. He walked over to my van and after putting on the 1st 6, the next one fit. They all popped right off, I gave him a $20!!!!.. Folks don't listen to anyone, go to your closest Ford dealer march to the back shop and YELL.. Someone will come to the rescue.. NOW if that doesn't work and your in the Boonies EBAY has these breakthrough keys specifically for these ford keys that you slightly hammer over the lug and will come off. They are only from Great Britain so it will take 2-3 weeks but will work to and is $45 with shipping, you cant get it in the U.S. Good luck people any questions let me know
