I'm wondering who makes the blanks for these keys -- got a source and blank #?

First off thanks for everyone on this forum for the help. Steven, I’ve given the part number for just the key, but they say it’s tied to J03, and I am needing J10. Any idea what the part number is for that key?

I’ve been dealing with multiple dealers on trying to get a key, but none of them have the right type key. I’ve tried part number 84835038, which I’m told is a luck of the draw on what key it is. Any help you can provide would be greatly appreciated

I just heard back from GM after telling them to call the dealership that the prior posted mentioned who knows how to order a key. They are only selling the following 4 keys at this time: J03, J06, J08, and J10

The part number is 86797471 and the dealer needs to specify what key you want -- hopefully one of the 4 listed above.

I had to talk to GM for 2 months to get them to figure out how to do this and it resulted in them having to all Chris Garner at John Heister Chevrolet in Lillington, NC -- if your local dealership cannot get you a key then you should call Chris Garner as he seems to be one of the few dealers around who knows how to get these keys. Even GM corporate did not know how and had to call Chris per the prior poster's info to solve it. GM corporate told me they are going to get this information to the dealerships so no one else will have to go through this hassle.

John Heister Chevy: (910) 376-8262

We bought our GMC Yukon XL in late November. It came with a roof rack installed (along with a few other dealer installed "options"). A week after purchase, I realized we had the wheel lock key, but not the rood rack key. I contacted the dealership (to remain un-named for now) and it took a while to get an answer... But eventually they said they would "mail the key". Nothing came in 2-3 weeks. Called a few more times, but this was around the holidays, nothing happened. Finally reached out to someone higher in the dealership in early February, they asked for the # on the roof rack and reported they would order keys from GMC and then have them shipped to me. Still have nothing, and have now left 2 messages with him without a return call. I plan to call back one more time today and see if I can get any updates... I thought there might be a delay on the keys? Who knows?

Either way, my question is where do I go next? Is there someone to talk to at GMC? Is there a best way to do that?

Thanks for any help! Have some trips planned for the summer and want to get this ironed out...
ok, just had the same problem with roof rack keys for mine, code J06.
spoke to a great parts guy,
any dealer can look up the code 86797471 and click on the key and you will have several choices of keys. mine is a J06 so the key code was 86797474.
it is a manufacturer direct ship to dealer. ( he could not find the manufacturer)
i googles the part number and the website gmpartsstore.com had my key in stock for 10.95.
good luck to you key hunters, hope this helps
