Vehicle lockout service in Dallas-Fort Worth
We open your car without damage, any hour, anywhere in Dallas-Fort Worth.
Vehicle Lockout
Keys on the seat, door shut, that sinking feeling. It happens in grocery lots in Plano, at Love Field and on driveways in Deep Ellum, and it happens to everyone eventually. Maverick Towing unlocks vehicles 24 hours a day, every day. The driver uses proper lockout tools, wedges and long-reach picks, not a coat hanger, so the door, weatherstrip and paint stay the way they were.
If a child or a pet is inside, tell the dispatcher right away. A parked car in Texas heats up in minutes, and we move those calls to the front of the line. The same goes for a running car locked with the keys inside. For everything else, we still come quickly, and we ask for proof you own the vehicle before we open it.
Sometimes the keys are not inside. They are lost. We do not cut or program keys, but we can tell you what to do next. Many dealers can make a key from your VIN, and a certified automotive locksmith can handle most others. If the car needs to go to either of those places, we tow it there. We are licensed, bonded and insured in Texas.

Why call Maverick for a lockout
A rushed lockout is how doors get scratched and window seals get torn. Our drivers have opened cars all over DFW for more than a decade and they take the extra minute to do it cleanly. Luxury models, high-security locks and newer cars with advanced systems are all handled with tools made for the job. Give us a call and stay with the vehicle.
FAQ
Vehicle Lockout questions
Can you open luxury cars and newer models?
Yes. We unlock a wide range of vehicles, including luxury brands and newer models with advanced locking systems. The driver uses non-marring tools and techniques suited to the specific car, so the door and trim are not damaged.
What if my keys are lost, not locked inside?
We can still help. We do not cut or program keys ourselves, but we can point you to your dealer or a certified automotive locksmith, and we can tow the car to whichever one you choose. Bring your ID and proof of ownership when you meet them.
Do I need to show ID before you unlock the car?
Yes. We ask for identification and something that ties you to the vehicle, like a registration or insurance card, before opening it. If those are locked inside, tell the driver and we will confirm ownership another way. This protects your car from being opened by the wrong person.
A child is locked in the car. What should I do?
Call us immediately and say a child is inside. Then call 911 if the child looks distressed or the car is hot. Stay next to the car, keep talking to the child and shade the windows if you can. We treat these calls as emergencies.
