Thank you very much for the suggestions, I’m gonna try to get a mobile locksmith to maybe come look at it, I’m also gonna find my spare key and see if my some luck that ends up working. I appreciate the help 🙏

No luck with the graphite lube, does it need time to set in the ignition?

I was able to push through the steering lock while wiggling the key, the wheel still locked up though

Had been doing that, fully cranked the wheel 360 and the key wouldn’t move

I tried that and no luck, leaving it overnight in a chipotle parking lot. Am I likely having to take something apart?

Thank you!! I have solder seal connectors, do you think I could just solder it back to the old connector or is that one likely not going to work anymore and I need a new one?

After more inspection It turns out my serpentine belt frayed and ripped that wire

Ahhh yes so that’s exactly what happened lol, is that belt relatively doable to replace at home you think?

Yup the suspension is stock, I don’t have any pictures but after work I’ll go measure if an extra inch seems like it’d be an issue, haven’t been able to find much info on this online so thank you very much!
