$800!! WOW you're getting ripped! Did they give you a tub of vaseline with it?
Crank sensor, about $100, cam sensor, about $60 (3.5 liter) or $40 (3.3 liter) so that means about $640 for labor to replace 2 sensors?!
VERY unlikely that they've gone out at the same time. There's probably only 1 sensor that has gone bad, sounds like you have a poorly trained tech at the Chrysler dealer you took it to. Find another local dealer, or a good independent shop for a second opinion. At the very least, you'll save a bundle on what this dealer is raking you for if it really does need both replaced (I seriously doubt it).
BTW, no good reason they should go bad at just 2 years old unless you put like 100k miles on it in those 2 years.

I had mine replaced and it didn't cost anything near that. I have a mechanic in the family though so it was just the price of parts. Which was around $80.00.
