Bought the 2006 Sebring with 32,000 miles on it, just before the warranty expired. It now has 62,000 miles on it, and it leaking oil profusely. I had my mechanically inclined father look at it, and it appears to be an issue with the crankshaft. As I have been looking online, this appears to be a recurring problem with these vehicles, and worse yet, if it starts to become a problem before the warranty is up, dealers are simply replacing the seal, essentially putting a band-aid on the bigger issue and leaving the expense up to the consumer to deal with. At this time I think I caught it before it got the chance to lock my engine up, I just thank my lucky stars that I had to drop my son off to school on a cold day and had left the engine to idle while I walked him to the door, as the engine only leaks while running. Had this not have been the case, I was about to travel to a town that takes over an hour to get to, taking a road with virtually no good places to stop, and many "dead-zones" which would have made getting assistance nearly impossible and potentially dangerous. I am very disappointed and will not be choosing Chrysler for any future vehicles, unless this problem is rectified.

While stopped at a traffic light I put the car in park. When the light turned green the shift lever would not leave park. The car became an inanimate obstacle to flow of traffic through the intersection.
