Well, I don't know if it's locked up, that's just the term the AAA guy used when he came out to load it on a flatbed after checking it for me a few weeks ago. I had the starter replaced and my roommate called me earlier saying it is doing the exact same thing. She went out to roll up the windows in case it rained, said it didn't seem like anything was wrong with the battery (which I know is my next bill anyways), but the jeep does absolutely nothing when you turn the key. I called the guys that did the install and they are going to look at it shortly (warranty, the only reason I went with them instead of a DIY). I'm hoping it's just a loose wire, but I'm thinking that if I bought this back in April, the starter had already been replaced, and it happened June 23rd, and again today...it's gotta be something affecting it.
