Eject is messed up?

I put a tape in my cassette player. It would not play,fas forward or rewind. I shut system off and pushed eject button. It seemed to only partially release. I do admit to a small amount of prying the door to get it to open. I did get the tape out intact. But now the eject for the door does not seem to engage as it did before. And the tapes don't seem to want to go in as before. This is a big multi function unit with amp.am/fm radio and belt drive record player in the top. I am hoping this is an easy fix of cassettes tape loading and ejection mec. The tape loads from the front. I bought it from penny's . It is MCS Series Model 2230
