Default freezing lock
annoying as hell, the driver's side key lock freezes whenever it goes from warm to cold and you get that potential for moisture settling in. the passenger side is fine! any suggestions other than replacing it?

Try spraying some WD40 in the lock. WD40 is a water displacer and should remove any water in the lock so it won't freeze anymore.
