Message	Went to the dealership to get a key made since I only recieved one from the guy I bought it from. I thought the dealership would just use one of those "grinders", WRONG! The guy first asked for the key code. Since i bought it used, I didn't have one. He then asked for the VIN #. Went to the car and got it. They cut a key "WITHOUT EVEN CHECKING MY ID, REG, INSURANCE, ETC"!!! They didn't even check if the ZX was outside or I owned one! Is this common practice I could have been a car theif! Just write down the VIN of your favorite car you want to steal, go to the dealership, they will cut a key for you reguardless who you are. This is scaring folks, is it just that easy? Is there and way yo have the key code removed from Nissans computer per your VIN#?
