Any thief could hack it I suppose. But the key numbering ID corresponds to the matching receiver I believe. If they change the codes, then the old key technically should no longer work on that car smart key system.
It's like changing the tumbler to a key and lock system. Even if the key is stolen, it shouldn't work on a different tumbler. It's just electronic now versus an actual mechanical key and lock.
Opps didn't really answer the question. Yes you are correct. He probably should change that one lock too. The key would open the door.
