Wheel Locks

Last year when I bought my car. I remember the dealer showing the wheel lock to me. An hour before I was to pick up the car the dealer decided they would take it out to a tire shop and get some newer tires put on it. Which I appreciated. They just put four brand new brake pads on as well which I supervised.
The thing is when he brought the car back with the tires I think he left the wheel lock at the tire shop. So I am without a tire lock.
My question is can I get this at Canadian Tire or do I have to contact Infiniti to get one?

Are you saying you don't have the actual key to get the wheel lock off or any wheel locks on your car?

If it's the former I would check with the dealer since I believe you'll need the code for the key lock. If you can't find it the dealer will likely have a master key they can use to get them off. They may spring for a new set if you can convince them they lost it.

If it's the latter you can buy wheel locks most anywhere.

I couldn't find my key lock after dealer service once. When I told them I had a new matching key lock a week later. Then I found the lock they had left somewhere else in the car. Now I have two keys.

Nissan/Inifiniti dealers have master sets of keys that fit Nissan locks. You could probably get the # off them to order a new key or get them to remove and buy yourself a new set.

I missing the key to get the locks off. I will inquire about getting one when I go to my Nissan Dealership. I bought the car in T.O. so not bothering with trying to track down a lock from over a year ago. Thanks to all for their input.

Good news on the wheel locks. Northern Nissan in Sudbury removed and installed new lugs and a new key for around $52.00. Very pleased.
33.00 for the locks and 18.00 dollars labour.

My friend bought a acura tl brand new and it did not even come with wheel locks. He told me they wanted a couple of hundred dollars for it so he said forget it.
