Kind of makes me nervous that it may happen sometime when it's even more inconvenient but I guess that's just a chance I'll have to take, I'm just glad I'll get my baby back.

Did you get the name of the part? What were the notes on the repair invoice? Thanks

Thanks Acorradi. IIRC, the invoice indicated recalibration of the engine immobilizer (EWS), Car Access System (CAS) and the interface between the two modules. It sounds like the EWS recognize the key ID but CAS cutoff fuel to the engine. The invoice was really useful. Thanks again.
