In recent years, it's ATF+4. Daniel Stern posted the link to this
article sometime ago: http://u225.torque.net/cars/tech/trans/982674.pdf

You don't just use any old p.s. fluid in Chryslers.

Forgot to mention: ATF+4 is the factory p.s. fill for '02 MY and up PT's
(all - turbo is no different). It is recommended for any refill
starting in '01 MY PT's. According to TSB No. 19-005-03.

Many thanks for the info! Today's cars are a lot more fussy about their
fluid intake.
