Few things are more frustrating than being locked out of your vehicle. Whether you accidentally locked your keys inside, lost your keys, or your key fob's battery died, Hawknest Roadside Assistance provides fast, professional lockout service throughout Santa Rosa, Sonoma, Petaluma, Healdsburg, Guerneville, and all of Sonoma County.

Our experienced technicians use specialized tools and techniques to unlock your vehicle safely, without causing damage to the locks, windows, or door mechanisms. We're available 24 hours a day, 7 days a week—because vehicle lockouts can happen anytime, anywhere. Whether you're locked out in a grocery store parking lot, at work, at home, or stranded on the side of the road, help is just a phone call away.

Time matters when you're locked out. That's why we prioritize rapid response, dispatching the nearest available technician to your location. Our goal is to get you back inside your vehicle and back to your day as quickly as possible, with minimal disruption and zero damage to your car.

Keys Locked Inside the Vehicle: This is the most common lockout scenario. You close the door, realize your keys are inside, and the doors are locked. Maybe the automatic locks engaged, or you simply forgot the keys were still in the ignition or on the seat.

Lost or Misplaced Keys: If you've lost your keys or can't find them anywhere, you need access to your vehicle. We can unlock your car so you can at least retrieve belongings and determine your next steps for key replacement.

Broken Key in Lock: If your key breaks off in the door lock or ignition, you're effectively locked out. We can often extract the broken key piece and unlock your vehicle, though you'll still need a new key made.

Dead Key Fob Battery: Many modern vehicles won't unlock if the key fob battery is completely dead, especially if they lack a traditional key backup. We can help you gain access and may be able to assist with getting the vehicle started.

Malfunctioning Locks: Sometimes vehicle locks malfunction due to wear, weather damage, or electronic issues. If your locks aren't responding normally and you can't access your vehicle, we can help.

Children or Pets Locked Inside: This is an emergency situation that requires immediate response. If a child or pet is locked inside your vehicle, especially on a warm day, call us immediately and mention the emergency nature of the situation. We'll prioritize your call and dispatch help as fast as possible.

In Santa Rosa and other urban areas, we often arrive within 20–30 minutes.

The Right Tools for Every Vehicle: Modern vehicles have increasingly sophisticated lock systems—from traditional pin-tumbler locks to electronic smart locks and proximity key systems. Our technicians carry specialized automotive lockout tools appropriate for a wide range of makes, models, and years. We don't force or improvise—we use purpose-built professional equipment that protects your vehicle's locks and door seals.

Beyond the Lockout: Sometimes a lockout reveals a deeper issue—a broken lock mechanism, a key fob that needs reprogramming, or a door handle that isn't latching properly. Our technicians will flag anything they notice and can help you understand your options, whether that means recommending a local locksmith or a dealership visit.

Available Every Hour of Every Day: Lockouts don't follow a 9-to-5 schedule. Whether you're locked out at midnight in a dark parking lot or early on a Sunday morning before church, Hawknest is available 24/7, 365 days a year—including holidays.
