This problem started last winter. When the temp goes down, the lock on the drivers door is super hard to turn (keyed part). I lubed the lock myself & took the door panel off to make sure the linkage was moving correctly & it is. The problem seems to be in the lock itself.
I took the car in to be fixed last winter and the garage just lubed the lock. This did not help. The problem was toward last winter & when the temp went up, the problem went away until now. We took the car back in & they lubed the lock again! Explained to them both times the problem & no one cares to listen. I guess I will have to try another garage. It will suck if the key breaks!!
