Are you saying your door lock is frozen? And the FOB won't unlock them? Have you tried spraying deicer into your lock? Lock-EZ? That works on my g/f's Honda that's been sitting out in subzero temps.
elaborate? ok i stick the key in and it doesnt turn..as ive stated the deicer doesnt work but maybe half the ime..i even put some regular lubricating oil in..only have the problem when it gets in the 20s and below

Sounds like you're not getting a chance to get all the moisture out. As much as I don't like WD40, it WILL displace water. Try spraying it into the lock thru the tube AFTER the car has sat in the sun a little. You want any ice to have melted. Wiggle the tube a little while you spray. Also spray some into the lock mechanism on the door jam as best you can. Then, after a few days w/o any more rain, I'd spray with Lock-EZ which contains graphite to relubricate the lock.
I'm assuming the FOB doesn't work, either?
