2009 DODGE JOURNEY. CONSUMER WRITES IN REGARDS TO PARTS NOT AVAILABLE TO COMPLETE WIRELESS IGNITION NODE MODULE RECALL NOTICE. *SMD RECALL # 14V373000. *JB
ON MULTIPLE OCCASIONS OVER THE PAST FEW YEARS MY 2009 DODGE JOURNEY WILL NOT START. THERE IS NO WARNING AND IT'S BECOME A GAMBLE TO DRIVE MY CAR AND RISK GETTING STRANDED SOMEWHERE. THE VEHICLE WILL JUST CLICK WHEN I TURN THE KEYFOB AND SOUNDS LIKE A DEAD BATTERY, BUT ALL LIGHTS, RADIO, WINDOWS ETC WORK FINE. I HAVE REPLACED THE BATTERY 3X AS SUGGESTED BY MY LOCAL DODGE DEALERSHIP BUT THEY FAIL TO IDENTIFY WHY THIS IS A RECURRING PROBLEM. I HAVE ALSO BEEN WAITING FOR ALMOST A YEAR FOR REPAIRS RELATED TO RECALLS THEY ARE UNABLE TO CORRECT SINCE THE PARTS ARE NOT AVAILABLE. MY VEHICLE ALSO HAS A HISTORY OF THE PANIC ALARM GOING OFF WHEN PUSHING THE UNLOCK BUTTON THE KEYFOB (I'VE MADE SURE THE PANIC WAS NOT HIT BY ACCIDENT - THIS IS NOT OPERATOR ERROR). ONCE THE PANIC ALARM IS SOUNDING THE KEYFOB BECOMES USELESS AND WON'T WORK. I HAVE TO TAKE THE KEY OUT OF THE FOB, UNLOCK THE DOOR USING THE KEY, GET IN PUT KEYFOB IN CAR TURN CAR ON, TURN CAR BACK OFF, TAKE KEYFOB OUT OF IGNITION AND CLICK THE UNLOCK AND/OR PANIC BUTTONS TO GET THE ALARM TO SHUT OFF.

WE RECEIVED THE RECALL LETTER IN JUNE. WE WERE SET UP AN APPOINTMENT ON JULY 9TH AND TOLD WE HAD A PART WAITING FOR US. WE SHOWED UP TO THE SCHEDULED APPOINTMENT AND THEY DID NOT HAVE A PART FOR US. THEY THEN TOLD US IT WAS BACK ORDERED AND WE WOULD BE INFORMED WHEN THE PART ARRIVED. IT HAS BEEN OVER A MONTH SINCE THE APPOINTMENT AND OVER TWO MONTHS SINCE WE HAVE BEEN INFORMED OF THE RECALL AND STILL NO REPAIR. THIS IS UNACCEPTABLE. WE STILL HAVE YET TO RECEIVE THE PART FOR REPAIR ON THE RECALL.

NHTSA publishes every complaint as the owner wrote it and investigates only a fraction. Spelling, capitalisation and judgement are the filer’s own. What carries weight is repetition: the same component failing the same way across many filings, and whether the manufacturer eventually opened a recall for it.
