The door locks on my daughters car (hasn't been used in a while) are jammed up. The drivers side will not turn and the passenger side will open and the trunk will but it feels like it is about to break the key off. Should I call a lock smith or take it to the dealership. If it matters it is a 97 Pontiac.

A shot of WD 40 will work wonders, I'll bet.

WD-40 will work on car locks. You spray it on the key and push the key in and out a few times. Then push the key in a small amount and spray directly into the lock, then continue, and wiggle the key gradually back and forth, and if you are lucky, it will free up and start working acceptably.
Of course, the problem might actually be the latch or the rods inside the door frozen up, and lubing the lock may not help.
