Sounds like the lock/unlock mechanism is broken or disconnected inside the door. Have AAA pop the door for you & head to a stealership for the fix.

Did you find a fix and what did it cost. I've got the same problem. Not sure how many days I didn't drive car but less then 5. Went to open locks with remote button nothing, tried manually nothing. Trunk and hood nothing as well. Put key in door and hit button to open nothing. Suggestions please????????? Can't get into car.

I trust you also tried turning the key when it was in the lock?

Suggestion: Check your credit card limit. The inside of DS lock mechanism broke, with the key stuck in the door. Total cost : $880 and 10 days. The parts had to come from "da Fatherland". I had AAA, so no towing costs for me.
