Anyone have trouble with the entry lock key just suddenly stop turning the lock?

Any suggestions on how to make it work?

perhaps a little shot of graphite, its a silvery powder stuff, comes in a tube
with a pointy tip that you put in the keyhole and give it a squirt. You could
probably find it in the key and lock section at Home Depot. If that doesn't
help, I don't know what else to try except a new lock, but it certainly sounds
frustrating.

Graphite does the trick. Happened to my MH not too long ago. Now I keep graphite handy - in house & MH.

when it happened to us we were on our maiden trip so took it back as there were other issues
and they fixed it!
