A PLL locks to phase. If the phase switches by 180 degrees, the phase tracking 
switches signs. There's no way to track that. You either need to double the 
frequency (and thus eliminate the modulation) or demodulate the signal and lock 
to the result. If you simply put up a real narrow filter and hit it with 
continuous 180 degree phase shifts, the output will be nothing at all…

Then there is the Costas loop. It's just a fancy PLL.
