* Transmission Failure: The transmission may be damaged or malfunctioning, preventing it from engaging any gear and transmitting power to the wheels.
* Driveline Issues: There could be a problem with the driveshaft, CV joints, or other components in the driveline that are preventing power from reaching the wheels.
* Clutch Problems (for manual transmission): For a manual transmission, a faulty or worn-out clutch can prevent the engine's power from being transmitted to the transmission and wheels.
* Brake Issues: If the brakes are partially engaged or stuck, they may prevent the vehicle from moving even when it's in gear.
* Electronic or Computer Issues: In modern cars like the PT Cruiser, electronic sensors and control modules play a crucial role in gear shifting and power transmission. If there are electrical problems or malfunctions in these systems, it can affect gear engagement and vehicle movement.
It's important to have the vehicle thoroughly diagnosed by a qualified mechanic to accurately identify the underlying cause of the issue and take appropriate repair measures.
