I believe you need both keys to make the third. So if your down to one, I expect its going to be expensive.

That shouldn't have a chip in it. You should be able to call your dealer and they can cut you a new one, or you can order a blank key from eBay and wait on it to come in and have dealer cut it.

I called the dealer and they said it did but I feel like they might be pulling my chain

07 and up have chips...

You can order a key that is chip'd ( ebay etc..)and have the dealer chip it to your vehicle. Dealer straight up for all....200 ish bucks. the other way...120 ish bucks.

I paid 140$ the other day for a new key. my key has the buttons on it and this was no charge for the programming.

I could have done it myself if I had two keys. Thinking I should order a eBay key before I lose another one.
