Ah, but not the main entry door, correct?

Correct.

Sort of.

Every dealer, and I am sure lots of other people have a master key for the main door LATCH. Not for the deadbolt that I am aware of. Many dealerships only lock the handle, so a salesman doesn't have to carry a hundred sets of keys..

Maybe it wasn't on this forum but several of the other forums mention that the "750" key is easy to get into because a skeleton is easily made. By 750 look on your keys for the 751 or 750 something and switch it out. There have been numerous thefts from the valuable stuff you put in your "basement" (I call it the boot). Super easy less than $5 fix. Just remember to take the original cylinder with you when you go to Lowes so you get the right length.

You can buy every possible key for the man door for about $56 from Fastec.  Not to mention any of the cargo or man doors can be pried open easily.
