I purchased this 2002 Dodge Intrepid a few months ago. Recently, if I leave it parked sometimes I'll notice weird spots on the ground after I move the vehicle.

It looks like oil leak. It's maybe 1 foot from the front of the car or so, it's several small spots of oil from the left side of the car to the right side of the car. It's kinda scattered but in a straight line from left to right.

Any ideas as to wear this could be coming from? I peeked under the car and this one area looks like it's dripping across.

If its transmission oil it may be one of the cooler lines that go to the radiator, and if its engine oil it may be any one of a couple places, the lower front crankshaft seal, the front cover, it depends on the size of your engine, there is a black light and dye you can use to locate a leak like this, coolant also looks like oil if its just a slight leak, so the radiator or water pump couold also be involved. The best way is to clean off the area, and run it to look for it, ok?
