I don't have the code for my key (2nd owner) but the Chrysler dealer said he could get it for $30. Go back to Chrysler and ask for management & tell them that they can get your key cut & programmed. Someone just doesn't know how to do it. All you should need is your registration & drivers license. A new programmed clicker runs about $160. If they will use yours it should be less.

I'm planing to do NOTHING on Friday.
You do not need a 'code', your VIN number is the code.
For $30 I'd read your VIN of the dash.

It is tough to lock yourself out of these cars unless you leave the key on the seat.
I should not say that as I did that very thing with my last car.
