Quick answers for Long Beach

Is it cheaper to replace the fob battery or the whole fob in Long Beach? +

Buttons still click and the car ignores it: try the coin battery. Water, a crack, or a missing remote means a new fob programmed to the car.

Ask OEM versus aftermarket before anyone orders a part. The car, not the ad, decides what programs.

Do I have to tow the car to get a new fob in Long Beach? +

A tow is the exception. Say where the car is parked so they know if they can program it there.
