Yes, it happened to me one fine day when I was heading home from work. I unlocked my car and my key got stuck. I jimmy jacked the key out and the door has perma locked itself.

You have a broken piston in you locking mechanism in you passanger door. Do not try to open it with your key as you will just break it. Get the panel off the door and get in there, take out the locking mechanism and rebuild or put in a new one. I believe that there is a guide on this forum on how to DIY.

PS I still have not fixed mine I just open and lock the car from the trunk.
