Sounds like you are on a hill. If your car is on a hill, try using the parking break before engaging park.

Then it could be a bad shift linkage. Do you need instructions on how to check it?

Well Chrysler has a bulletin that basically says to check the software and update as necessary for the transmission Control module. If this doesn't work they recommend replacing the front pump assembly. It would be covered under warranty.
