R1200GS Cases

One of the locks for the brand new Vario side cases that came with my R1200GS has suddenly stopped allowing the key to enter the keyhole. BTW, the key has a funky fit in both the case locks and in the gas cap as well. The spare key is no better. Any known home remedies out there before I go through the hassle of contacting the dealer since heÔÇÖs 100 miles away?
 
I would figure if all 3 locks feel weird it's the keys. 100 miles away...take the back roads. :D
 
I had the same problem on my RT system cases two years ago. Dealer fixed it under warranty. Just an FYI.
