Then after another 45 minutes of jiggling, the key magically turns the lock cylinder. So I called AAA to cancel and off we went. Looks like I'll be busy replacing the lock cylinder in the next couple of days.
I recommend that you deal with this right away....don't risk having it get to the point where can no longer turn the key. Much more expensive.
