One point with the heated seat recall , if its not working originaly the recall wont fix it . but if the usual problem of a wire breaking off the thermostat is the cause then the recall will fix it .

You mean when you turn the key in the door lock nothing happens? There is a rod about 3 inches long from the key to the lock , the rod breaks ... so you need a new barrel .

That's 2 problems then , new lock /catch due to the remote problem and If when you turn the key it has no resistance either way then a new barrel.
