I would try lubing it up with WD40 if u haven't over the years the gunk build up on it can make them hard to turn.

Power or manual? Also is it aligned properly? if it is sagged it will make it tough. otherwise it is probably just as Big Dodge said.

My passenger power lock no longer unlocks the door. I sprayed PB blaster down there with the windows down but no luck. Don't know if I can even get the door panel off without taking out the bench seat...

The lock mechanism probably needs to be serviced.
