The EIN on the 1099 INT I have for PNCBank is not being accepted by Turbo Tax.

I contacted PNCBank and verified the EIN on my form is correct.

Did you import this 1099-INT from PNC Bank? 

If so, delete it and re-enter it in the 1099-INT interview, without the EIN .

The Payer's  EIN is not required when reporting interest income from a 1099-INT.

Instead of identifying PNC as your institution, try using National Financial.  National Financial is "processing" PNC's accounts.  It worked for my 1099-DIV information.
