In the case of the key, the old key and new key will be re-coded so the missing (original second) key will no longer start the ignition.
As Wiz said, a phone call to a locksmith would be worthwhile. I actually had the latest programming protocol before the dealer got it. I even do work FOR the dealer, for example on vehicles older than 2000 which they can't get codes for.
