take the lock cylinder out. soak it in a cup of PBlaster for a day or Liquid Wrench. Or Spray it in there and hope the spray is enough to loosen it up. Once loose, keep well lubed.

Yah this happened to me too. I didnt want to spend the money get that fixed. So i took the money i was going to spend on that and sink that into an alarm. Now i dont use the keys except to drive it.
