yeah, my 2005 does that to me a lot. I thought it was just the dry winter air.

Try a seat cover.Sounds like you might be sliding off the seat causing static

Try a seat cover. Static shocks are likely caused by sliding off the seat.

The owner of a Chrysler PT Cruiser reports frequent static shocks and sparks when getting out. Other owners of 2003 and 2005 PT Cruisers, and a 2005 Grand Caravan, report the same issue, with one attributing it to dry winter air.
