Quick answer
Salazar Roadside Assistance provides 24/7 mobile car lockout service across DFW. Our technicians use damage-free entry tools to open most vehicles in minutes and typically arrive in about 30 minutes. Photo ID and proof of ownership are required. Call (469) 606-2575.
Damage-free entry, not a coat hanger
Automotive doors are full of wiring, airbag sensors and linkage that improvised tools destroy. Our technicians use inflatable air wedges to create a controlled gap and long-reach tools to work the interior handle or lock.
Keyless vehicles that lock automatically when the fob is left inside are a large share of these calls, and they open the same way.

If a child or pet is inside, call 911 first

Answers
Car Lockout Service questions, answered
Can you unlock my car without damaging it?
Yes. We use inflatable wedges and long-reach tools designed for automotive entry, which open most vehicles without harming the door, weatherstripping, glass or paint.
What if my keys are locked in the trunk?
Most vehicles allow trunk access through the cabin once the doors are open, either with a release lever or by folding the rear seats. We open the cabin first, then work from there.
Do you need proof the car is mine?
Yes. Before we open any vehicle we ask for photo identification and something linking you to the car, such as registration, insurance or a matching address. It protects you as much as it protects us.
Can you make a new key or program a fob?
Lockout entry is what we provide on the roadside. If your key is lost rather than locked inside, you will need an automotive locksmith or dealer for cutting and programming, and we can help you arrange a tow there.
Is there a child or pet locked inside?
Call 911 first, then call us. Emergency services are equipped for immediate forced entry when someone's safety is at risk, and every second matters in Texas heat.
How much does a car lockout cost?
Lockouts are flat-rate: $65 for a standard vehicle, $75 for push-button start vehicles, and $89 for luxury and European models, plus the $19 dispatch fee. You hear the exact number before the technician is dispatched.
Why do push-button start and luxury cars cost more to unlock?
They take longer and need different tooling. Push-button vehicles often have proximity-locked doors and tighter frames, and European models frequently use protected linkages and hidden manual releases, so the technician works slower and more carefully to avoid damage.
Is there a 24 hour car lockout service near me?
Yes — Salazar runs lockout calls all night across DFW and Austin at the same flat rate. Bar lots, apartment garages, hospital decks, airport lots and grocery parking lots are our most common overnight lockout locations, and most are opened within 30 minutes of the call.
Can you unlock a car in a parking garage or apartment lot?
Yes. Garages, gated apartment lots and office decks are routine for us — just meet the technician at the gate or give the dispatcher the access code so there is no delay at the entry.
