Actually, I had read the owner’s manual. Nothing about this “feature” in there… but that’s part 2 of the saga, which will appear later.

$1/second to for a locksmith should have equated to about $5 bucks for a job like this, so I suspect he charged you for travel time as well.
I guess a second key is a “dealer installed option”?
What a pain…but at least you weren’t out in the boonies somewhere when it happened. Not that I know anyone who’s ever done this in, say, a remote part of the Colorado Rockies.
