My right passenger door lock is stuck in the down position, and I cannot pull it up.
Is there a way to open it?
How can I fix the lock so it doesn't happen again?

You'll have to remove the door panel to take a look.

It's unusual that it would seize since the plunger is attached to the door lock solenoid which offers little resistance to movement.

If you are referring to the rear door, then there's a child safety feature to only allow opening from the outside. Open the door and look for a small lever on the edge between the latching mechanism and the interior panel.

It is the front door, and I was able to pull the lock up with considerable
mechanical force. Now the lock doesn't go down with the others when I lock
the driver's side door.
