Subaru Impreza Key Replacement Depends on the Key Era
The Impreza has been sold as a sedan and a hatchback, with trims and key equipment changing over the years. These broad eras can help you identify what you have; the exact key depends on the model year and trim. For help with another Subaru, see our Subaru key replacement service.
1993–2004: Traditional turn-key
Many Imprezas from this era use a conventional key that turns in the ignition. If yours is worn, bent, or missing, tell us the year and whether you still have a working key.
2005–2011: Transponder-era keys
Many Imprezas from these years use a key with an electronic security function, sometimes paired with a separate remote. A replacement may need to work with the vehicle’s security system as well as turn the ignition.
2012–2016: Keys and fobs vary by trim
This era includes different key and fob setups across trims. Some drivers use a key in the ignition, while certain configurations use a fob-based system.
2017 and newer: Fob options by configuration
Later Imprezas may use a traditional ignition key or a fob with push-button starting, depending on the vehicle. The sedan or hatchback body style alone does not identify the key system.

Is Your Subaru Impreza Key Fob or the Car at Fault?
A Subaru Impreza key fob problem can feel like a vehicle problem, especially when you are trying to get on the road. Try these quick checks without forcing the key or fob.
- Check the fob battery — If the fob buttons have stopped responding or work only at very close range, a weak battery may be the cause. A battery change is a simple first check.
- Try the spare key or fob — If a spare works normally, the issue is likely with the original key or fob. If neither works, the vehicle or its key system may need attention.
- Notice what happens at the vehicle — If the doors respond but the Impreza will not start, the issue may be different from a fob that cannot unlock the doors. Share what you see when you call.
- Stop if a key feels stuck — Do not force a key that will not turn or a fob that will not release. We can help with key and ignition concerns, including key fob programming when the setup calls for it.

Subaru Impreza Key and Fob Problems on Daily Drives
Whether your Impreza is a sedan used for commuting or a hatchback carrying passengers and gear, a key problem can interrupt a routine quickly. Tell us how the vehicle is used and what changed before the trouble started.
Lost the only key
If all keys are gone, we make a new car key on site. Share your Impreza’s year and trim when you call so we can discuss the right service for its key system.
Fob buttons work inconsistently
Repeated button presses or reduced range can make everyday locking and unlocking frustrating. A weak battery or a fob issue may be involved.
Key turns roughly or will not turn
A worn key or ignition trouble can make starting the car difficult. Stop trying to force it and describe what happens when you turn the key.
Locked out with the key inside
If you cannot get into your Impreza, we provide mobile car lockout service. Tell us where the car is and whether the key is inside or missing.
