You have to head to the dealer. Even if you had an extra key, the dealer has to program it.

The vehicle is issued with 5 keys linked (programmed) to the remote open/alarm system. Two are provided new and the other 3 MUST be ordered from a dealer AFTER he establishes you are the legitimate owner/driver.

I just received a spare key from an ebay seller (USA), cut it to a local locksmith, program it using the above mentioned instructions, but it only unlocks the car (remotely or with the door lock), it CAN NOT start the ignition! |

You have to buy a key with a chip, only 5 chips total were manufactured for each car, from the dealer. Once you have one of those keys with a chip in it for your car, you can take it to whom-ever you want to get it cut and you can program it yourself to unlock the doors etc..... If a previous owner has already purchased all 5 of the chips...... you have to replace the anti-theft/start system on the car so you can get 5 more keys.....way expensive!
