Most New York lockouts happen in ordinary moments — unloading groceries, a gas stop, a quick errand with the fob left on the seat.
Requests in New York usually come from ordinary places: a workplace or office-district lot at the end of a shift; a parking garage where the vehicle is on an upper level; a highway shoulder or on-ramp during commuting hours.
If a child or pet is locked inside, call 911 first. Emergency services respond to those situations directly.
Drivers traveling on routes such as FDR Drive, West Side Highway and Belt Parkway in New York may be stopped where there is little room to work, so tell us exactly where the vehicle is when you request help.
In cold or icy conditions, stay in the vehicle with your seat belt on and hazards flashing while you wait, and keep the exhaust pipe clear of snow.
