What does a car locksmith do?

Is a locksmith for a car different than one for a house? I've hired a locksmith for my apartment before but never for my car. What exactly do they do?

“An automotive locksmith performs a variety of functions similar to a home locksmith.
They may perform services such as:
  • creating or replacing keys
  • fixing broken keys
  • helping you get back into your vehicle if you get locked out
  • reprogram your key fob
If you require services, make sure you take time to choose a reliable locksmith.”
