Could need to jump start battery, start might be going out you could lightly tap on it with hammer and then try turning it over dont touch power leads though. I doubt the motor is locked if oil change was done properly.

Does the motor click while its turning over or motor stops cranking and then you here clicks?

bad connection, bad battery, battery in a low state of charge or a drain that has caused low state of charge.

Assuming all your connections are good and your battery is charged. I had similar symptoms a while back have a look at your starter solenoid on the driver side inner fender. $20 part Theres also a video on youtube related to this issue to help you diagnose.

good luck
