Hello, I am a first time driver and this is my first car. Long story short I lock myself out of the car alot. I locked myself out at an unfamiliar street one day and the only thing that could help was a jimmy and a sheriff. Long story short my locks are broken do you know how I go about to get this fixed?

You can buy replacement locks at most autoparts stores, but key will be different.

I would remove interior door panel and locks, take to locksmith and have them rebuilt so you can use original key.

Depends on what is wrong. Rebuild kits can cost $60 and up, and labor to RR.

OR, you could have locksmith re-key all locks.
