Not sure but my 98 Town and Country did that last winter, turned out that my Trans fluid was extremely low because of a leak. Once i filled it to the proper level and and made sure it remained full, no problems. It still leaks slowly and i still have to make sure its filled. Beats a new transmission. sucks for the environment though, leaking and all.

How do you check the transmission fluid in a 1988 Chrysler LeBaron?
If your car has an automatic transmission, there will be a short dipstick near the front (radiator side) of the transmission. With the transmission warmed up (go for a short drive), park on a level surface, and with the transmission in park or neutral and engine running, pull the dipstick out and check the fluid level against the markings on the dipstick.
