DRIVING ON HIGHWAY HAD TO PULL OVER. PUT HAZARD LIGHTS ON GRASS WAS WET. WHEN DONE WE GOT STUCK SO I OUT THE ABS BUTTON ON AND THE TRACTION AND ABS LIGHTS STAYED ON THE DASH FOR 20 MILES, THEN THEY TURNED OFF FOR A BRIEF MOMENT AND THEY'VE BEEN ON EVER SINCE. COMPUTER MODULE AT OUR LOCAL STORE IS NOT GIVING A PROBLEM WHEN PLUGGED INTO THE FUSE BOX WITH THEIR HANDHELD COMPUTER.

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2012 DODGE JOURNEY. THE CONTACT STATED THAT THE VEHICLE CONSTANTLY LOST POWER, THERE WAS A REDUCTION OF SPEED, AND THE SERVICE ENGINE WARNING INDICATOR FLASHED WITHIN MONTHS OF OWNING THE VEHICLE. THE VEHICLE WAS SERVICED PER NHTSA CAMPAIGN NUMBER: 11V487000 (ENGINE AND ENGINE COOLING), BUT THE REPAIR FAILED TO REMEDY THE FAILURES.

ABS AND TRACTION CONTROL LIGHTS ILLUMINATED. DIAGNOSED BY THE DEALERSHIP THAT THE ABS MODULE NEEDED TO BE REPLACED. BRAKES CONTINUED TO WORK AND AT FIRST THE ABS AND TRACTION CONTROL WENT ON AND OFF INTERMITTENTLY.

THE 4 CYLINDER ENGINE ON MY 2012 DODGE JOURNEY DEVELOPED AN ENGINE COOLANT LEAK. TROUBLE SHOOTING FOUND THE LEAK TO BE RELATED TO DETERIORATION OF A PLASTIC PART INSIDE THE ENGINE...DODGE PART# 68003582...ADAPTER C. THE CAR WAS STANDING WHEN THE PROBLEM WAS DIAGNOSED. IF I HAD NOT HAD THE PART REPLACED A CATASTROPHIC ENGINE COOLANT LEAK COULD HAVE OCCURRED WHILE THE CAR WAS BEING DRIVEN, LEADING TO A FULL LOSS OF COOLANT, OVERHEATING OF THE ENGINE AND SEIZING OF THE ENGINE. I TALKED WITH DODGE CUSTOMER SERVICE AND THEY ACKNOWLEDGED AWARENESS OF THE PROBLEM.THE CAR HAS 89,000 MILES. I CONSIDER THIS TO BE A SERIOUS SAFETY PROBLEM.

MY CAR WAS IN AN ACCIDENT ON THE HIGHWAY GOING 60MPH REAR ENDED ANOTHER VEHICLE AND THE AIR BAGS DID NOT DEPLOY.

AUTOMATIC TRANSMISSION HAS SOME PROBLEM TOO.

MYSELF AND MY 3 YOUNG CHILDREN WERE DRIVING DOWN A PRETTY DARK HIGHWAY AT ABOUT 10 PM. 3 HOURS FROM HOME. IN A STORM AND VERY HEAVY RAIN. VEHICLE SUDDENLY LOST POWER. WHEN I GAVE IT GAS THE ENGINE JUST REVVED. LOST ALL POWER INCLUDING WINDSHIELD WIPERS AND POWER STEERING I QUICKLY DROPPED FROM 75 TO 40 WITH SEMIS BARRELING UP BEHIND ME AS I WAS TRYING TO GET TO A SHOULDER TO PULL OFF ON. CAR DIED AND WOULD NOT RESTART. WE WERE STUCK ON THE SIDE OF THE ROAD FOR 5 HOURS WITH NO HEAT AND NO POWER TO THE CAR. EVEN CALLLED ROADSIDE AND THEY TRIED TO JUMP IT. IT WOULD START BUT THEN GO HAYWIRE AGAIN. BATTERY LIGHT AND ETC AS WELL AS ALL OTHERS LIGHTS COME ON. IT HAS LEFT ME AND MY KIDS IN THE COLD MORE THAN ONCE. NO ONE SEEMS TO KNOW THE PROBLEM AS THE BATTERY AND ALTERNATOR ARE TESTING FINE. VEHICLE IS NOW SITTING IN MY DRIVE WAY AND WON'T DO ANYTHING. AT ALL.

6 WEEKS AGO THE AIRBAG SENSOR LIGHT APPEARED IN MY CAR. I CALLED THE LOCAL DEALERSHIP (LAFONTAINE IN LANSING, MI) AND THEY TOOK A LOOK AT IT. THEY DISCOVERED THE WIRING BETWEEN THE SENSOR AND THE AIRBAG HAD CORRODED. IN SEPTEMBER 26, 2017, OUR CAR'S HEATER CORE EXPLODED ON US AFTER BEING INSTALLED IMPROPERLY EARLIER IN 2017 BY WYSUP CHRYSLER IN PULLMAN, WASHINGTON. IT POURED BOILING HOT WATER AND ANTIFREEZE ON MY HUSBAND WHILE HE WAS DRIVING THE CAR. WE BELIEVE THAT THIS WAS THE CAUSE OF THE CORRODED WIRING, BUT DODGE REFUSES TO FIX IT. WE HAVE BEEN WITHOUT A CAR FOR OVER A MONTH NOW AS WE SIT AND WAIT TO SEE IF DODGE CORPORATE, THE BBB, OR THE ATTORNEY GENERAL'S OFFICE OF WASHINGTON STATE WILL HELP US. THE COST TO FIX OUR AIRBAG SENSOR IS $1500.

LIFT GATE WIRING HARNESS BECOMES WEAK AND BRITTLE CAUSING WIRING TO FAIL. THIS WIRING FEEDS ALL LIGHTS AND FUNCTIONALITY ON THE READ LIFT GATE. DEALERS WILL REPAIR WHICH LAST A SHORT WHILE UNTIL FAILURE AGAIN.

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2012 DODGE JOURNEY. WHILE DRIVING VARIOUS SPEEDS, THE VEHICLE SUDDENLY SHUT OFF. THE VEHICLE WAS TAKEN TO AN INDEPENDENT MECHANIC WHO DIAGNOSED THAT THE CRANK SHAFT SENSOR WAS FAULTY AND NEEDED TO BE REPLACED. THE VEHICLE WAS NOT REPAIRED. THE MANUFACTURER AND AN UNKNOWN DEALER WERE NOTIFIED OF THE FAILURE. THE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS 116,785. THE VIN WAS INVALID.

BRAKE PEDAL GOES COMPLETELY TO THE FLOOR WHEN BRAKING. HAPPENS INTERMITTENTLY, BRAKES WORK PERFECTLY FINE FOR 2 TO 3 WEEKS THEN OCCURS AGAIN. HAS HAPPENED 4 TIMES. COMPLETELY REPLACED BRAKE FLUID, CHECKED BRAKE PUMP AND BRAKE LINE FOR LEAKS, NO LEAKAGE VISIBLE. CAN IT BE BRAKE MODULE OR ABS MODULE THAT IS DEFECTIVE? VEHICLE WAS IN MOTION EVERYTIME SITUATION OCCURRED ON THE HIGHWAY.

THE ABS SYSTEM MALFUNCTIONED CAUSING THE BRAKES NOT TO STOP. WHICH NEARLY RESULTED IN A LIFE THREATENING CRASH.

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2012 DODGE JOURNEY. WHILE DRIVING AT ANY SPEED, THE ABS INDICATOR ILLUMINATED AND THE CRUISE CONTROL FAILED TO OPERATE. THE VEHICLE WAS TAKEN TO AN INDEPENDENT MECHANIC WHO DIAGNOSED THAT THE CONTROL MODULE FOR THE ABS SYSTEM NEEDED TO BE REPLACED. THE DEALER WAS NOT CONTACTED. THE MANUFACTURER WAS MADE AWARE OF THE FAILURE AND STATED THAT THERE WAS NO RECALL. THE CONTACT WAS REFERRED TO NHTSA. THE VEHICLE WAS NOT REPAIRED. THE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS APPROXIMATELY 95,000.

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2012 DODGE JOURNEY. THE CONTACT TOOK THE VEHICLE TO AN INDEPENDENT MECHANIC TO HAVE NEW BRAKES INSTALLED.

THE DEALER WAS NOT CONTACTED. THE MANUFACTURER WAS MADE AWARE OF THE FAILURE. THE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS APPROXIMATELY 62,600.

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2012 DODGE JOURNEY. THE CONTACT STATED THAT THE TRACTION CONTROL INDICATOR ILLUMINATED.

THE VEHICLE WAS NOT DIAGNOSED OR REPAIRED. THE MANUFACTURER WAS NOT CONTACTED. THE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS 87,000.

THE VEHICLE WAS PARKED IN MY DRIVEWAY. I TRIED TURNING ON THE CAR AND IT WOULDN'T TURN ON. ALL THE DASHBOARD LIGHTS WORK, IT LOCKS AND UNLOCKS WITH KEY, ABSOLUTELY EVERYTHING WORKS FINE BUT WON'T TURN ON EVEN AFTER REPLACING WITH A NEW BATTERY. THIS ISSUE IS RIDICULOUS AND DODGE NEEDS TO FIX IT ASAP. I WILL NEVER BUY DODGE AGAIN.

CRANKSHAFT POSITION SENSOR (CKP) YESTERDAY I WAS DRIVING DOWN TRAFFIC FILLED PLEASANT HILL RD. IN DULUTH, GA AND THE CHECK ENGINE LIGHT CAME ON. WITHIN SECONDS I LOST POWER, I COULD NOT USE MY BRAKES AND STEERING. I ALMOST REAR-ENDED SOMEONE. I PUSHED THE START BUTTON AND THE CAR HESITATED. I TRIED ONCE MORE AND IT BEGAN TO START. I MADE IT TO ADVANCED AUTO AND THEY CODED IT ( P0335) HOME AND HAVE NOT DRIVEN THE VEHICLE SINCE.

"TAKATA RECALL" IT IS TO MY UNDERSTANDING THAT THIS TYPE OF VEHICLE SHOULDN'T HAVE NO ISSUE WITH THE ENGINE AT 98000, DRIVING AT 40 MPH THE ENGINE STOP WORKING AND NOW WE HAVE TO BUY A NEW TRANSMITION... HOW IS THIS POSSIBLE... THIS IS UNACEPTABLE.

PLEASE REPLY, I HAVE FOUND A LOT OF OTHER PEOPLE ONLINE WITH THE SAME PROBLEMS , ALWAYS 2012 -2013 DODGE JOURNEYS WITH 2.4 LITER ENGINES PLEASE HELP.....

IN THE MIDDLE OF THE WINTER 2015-2016 I HAD TO REPLACE MY RADIATOR DUE TO A SMALL CRACK THAT DEVELOPED. MY HEAT STARTED TO MALFUNCTION THE FOLLOWING WINTER 2016-2017 IT ONLY WORKED PART OF THE TIME. STARTING IN THE FALL OF 2017 MY HEAT WENT OUT COMPLETELY. WE TOOK IT IN TO HAVE THEM CHECK THE HEATER CORE, COME TO FIND OUT THAT SINCE THE HEATER CORE IS INSTALLED AT AN ANGLE IT DOESN'T DRAIN THE SLUDGE PROPERLY. I HAVE ALSO NOTICED THAT MY AIR CONDITIONING WILL TURN ON AT RANDOM. I DON'T KNOW EXACTLY WHEN THIS STARTED, BUT IT WILL TURN ON BY ITSELF. JUST THIS MORNING 8/13/18 MY AIR TURNED ON 15 TIMES, AFTER BEING SHUT OFF EVERY TIME. I'M WONDERING IF THIS IS SOMETHING WRONG ELECTRONICALLY. THANK YOU FOR YOUR TIME AND CONSIDERATION ON MY 2012 DODGE JOURNEY.

HI MY NAME IS [XXX]. I'M WRITING THIS COMPLAINT ON THE BASIS OF MY 2012 DODGE JOURNEY. I HAVE HAD MY 2012 DODGE JOURNEY FOR 2 YEARS AND 3 MONTHS, AND I HAVE HAD TO REPLACE FRONT BRAKE PADS AND RESURFACE ROTORS 3 TIMES IN 2 YEARS. I'VE ALSO HAD TO REPLACE REAR BRAKE PADS AND RESURFACE ROTORS TWICE ON THE BACK 1 RECENTLY BEING 3 DAYS AGO AND NOW I TOOK IT SOMEWHERE ELSE BECAUSE OF NOISE IN THE FRONT BRAKES AND ROTORS AND THEY SAID I NEED FRONT CALIBERS ON BOTH SIDES AND BRAKE HOSE ON BOTH SIDES, AND A BREAK FLUID FLUSH AND NEED MORE BRAKES BECAUSE THEY LOCKED UP AT THAT PLACE TODAY ALSO. I HAVEN'T EVEN PAID CAR PAYMENT THIS MONTH AND I'VE ALREADY PAID 300 DOLLARS FOR BRAKE CALIBER ON THE TRUCK AND PLACE I WENT TO GET A 2ND OPION AND THEY SAID I NEED 652.85 DOLLARS TO GET MY FRONT DONE AND THIS IS 2 DAYS LATER AFTER I GOT MY BACK DONE. I HAVE SPENT AT LEAST 3,000 DOLLARS ON THIS ON GOING PROBLEMS IN THE PAST 2 YEARS. MY 2012 DODGE SUCKS AND I NEED HELP. I'M GETTING ME A LAWYER AND IM FILING ALL KIND OF COMPLAINTS ABOUT THIS CURRENT PROBLEM THAT I DONT HAVE MONEY TO KEEP GETTING FIXED. ALSO ONCE MY BRAKES LOCKED UP ON THE TRUCK ONCE AT THE DEALERSHIP WHICH WAS JULY 11, 2018 THAT COST 300 DOLLARS. I LIVE 30 MINUTES AWAY FROM THE DEALERSHIP, I TAKE I95 TO AND FROM THE DEALERSHIP, THEY WERE ABOUT TO LET ME DRIVE MY TRUCK BACK HOME BUT THE BRAKE HAD LOCKED BEFORE THEY CAN GIVE IT BACK TO ME. QUESTION WHAT IF I WOULD'VE GOT IN MY TRUCK AND DROVE BACK HOME ON I95 AND MY BRAKE WOULD HAV

FAULTY ABS MODULE DUE TO WATER LEAK, RECALLED ON VERY MANY 2012 DODGE JOURNEYS. FOR SOME REASON, NOT RECALLED ON MINE. NOTICED BRAKE LIGHT, ABS LIGHT, AND TRACTION LIGHT CAME ON, I HAD A DIAGNOSTIC DONE BY MY OWN MECHANIC AND CONFIRMED OVER THE PHONE WITH THE DODGE DEALERSHIP THAT I WAS COVERED UNDER THE RECALL. AFTER DROPPING MY CAR OFF AND THE MECHANICS THERE NOT FIXING THE ISSUE, I WAS TOLD THAT MY VIN ACTUALLY WAS NOT COVERED UNDER THAT RECALL. SO MY ABS MODULE IS FAULTY FOR NO OBVIOUS OR APPARENT REASON. I RARELY DRIVE ON HIGHWAYS, I NEVER GOT INTO ANY ACCIDENTS, THE 3 NOTIFICATION LIGHTS AS NOTED ABOVE JUST CAME ON ONE DAY WHEN I TURNED THE CAR ON.

WOW!!!!!!!!!! IS ALL I CAN SAY, I CAN'T BELIEVE THE AMOUNT OF PROBLEMS THIS CAR HAS. WITH THAT BEING SAID I'M HOPING THAT SINCE I FINANCED THIS VEHICLE, THAT THE FINANCE COMPANY WILL HELP ME BECAUSE THIS DEALERSHIP "CLEARLY" SOLD ME A LEMON AND I'M SURE THEY KNOW IT IS. EVERYTHING ELECTRICAL IN MY 2012 JOURNEY STARTED SURGING TO THE POINT WHERE I THOUGHT IT WAS GOING DIE ON ME WHILE DRIVING ON A HIGHWAY HERE ON VANCOUVER ISLAND B.C. CANADA. I'VE HAD PROBLEMS WITH THE PUSH BUTTON START ( SOMETIMES 4 ATTEMPTS TO START IT ARE NEEDED ) . I REALLY LOVE THE VEHICLE WITH THE COST TO REPAIR MODERN DAYS CARS, I THINK I WANT TO FIND A WAY TO RETURN IT ( IT'S ONLY BEEN 5 MONTHS SINCE I'VE HAD IT ) . THE DEALERSHIP SAYS IT'S PROBABLY THE BATTERY AND OFFERED TO REPLACE IT SO ON THE 27TH OF THIS MONTH, I WILL TAKE IT TO THE DEALERS AND TRY TO RETURN IT ALL TOGETHER. NONE OF US SHOULD BE HAVING ISSUES LIKE THIS AND I'M REALLY DISAPPOINTED WITH DODGE AND HOW THEY'RE "NOT" DOING MUCH TO HELP ANYONE. SADLY THESE VEHICLES ARE "LEMONS" AND SHOULD ALL BE RECALLED AND JUNKED IMO. SORRY TO HEAR SO MANY OTHER'S HAVE PROBLEMS TOO , JUST KEEP YOUR ROADSIDE ASSIST UP TO DATE LOL CAUSE I FEEL WE'RE "ALL" GOING TO NEED IT EVENTUALLY AND WHO WANTS TO BE STUCK IN THE MIDDLE OF NOWHERE.

WHILE NORMAL DRIVING ON HIGHWAY , MY [ ABS ) LIGHT AND THE SQUIGGLY CAR LIGHT COMES ON . THEN AFTER AWHILE OR SHUTTING CAR OFF AND RESTARTING THE ENGINE , THE LIGHTS GO OFF . THEN IT HAPPENS AGAIN FREQUENTLY ON A DAILY BASIS .

LAST WEEK I WAS DRIVING MY CAR AND IT FELT LIKE IT WAS GOING TO STALL AT A STOP SIGN. THEN THE ENGINE LIGHT CAME ON WHEN I STARTED DRIVING AGAIN. WHILE DRIVING ON A BUSY HIGHWAY MY CAR JUST SHUT OFF. NO BRAKES, OR STEERING. I HAD 3 KIDS IN THE CAR 2 BEING TODDLERS. I WAS ABLE TO PUT IT INTO PARK AND START IT AGAIN TO GET IT OFF THE ROAD. THIS IS THE FIRST TIME THIS HAPPENED TO ME AND NOW I AM SCARED TO DRIVE IT. AS FOR ELECTRICAL MY CAR RANDOMLY SOMETIMES JUST CHANGES RADIO STATIONS, U CONNECT DOESN'T WORK. WHEN DISCONNECTING THE BATTERY IT WORKS FOR ABOUT A MONTH AND YOU CAN NOT USE IT ANYMORE.

THEY'RE ARE RECALLS FOR ALL THE ISSUES I'M HAVING WITH MY VEHICLE BUT WHEN I PUT THE VIN IN IT DOESN'T FALL UNDER THE RECALL LIST. I DON'T SEE HOW THEY CAN CHOOSE WHAT CARS TO FIX IF THE SAME PROBLEMS AND PARTS ARE ON ALL THEM. SO I GUESS DODGE IS DEFINITELY NOT THE VEHICLE TO BUY SINCE THEY DON'T STAND BEHIND THEY'RE WORK. I WAS DRIVING AND THE ABS LIGHT AND TRACTION CONTROL LIGHT CAME ON AND CRUISE CONTROL STOPPED WORKING. AND FROM WHAT I'VE BEEN TOLD IT'S THE BRAKE SENSOR AND THAT'S ONE OF THE RECALLS MY VEHICLE VIN DOESN'T FALL UNDER.

WHILE RAINING I HAD WENT TO TURN AND THE POWER STEERING HAD GONE. I HAD LITTLE TO NO CONTROL OVER MY 2012 DODGE JOURNEY. WARNING LIGHTS COME AND MAINLY THE AIRBAG LIGHT WHEN TURNING. THE BATTERY BEEN REPLACED AND I HAD A RECALL PREFORMED FOR LAKE OF WIRING COVERS. I HAVE TAKING IT TO TWO DIFFERENT DEALERSHIPS AND THEY DO NOT TAKE ME SERIOUS. ALWAYS TRYING TO GET ME TO BUY A NEW CAR. INSTEAD OF FIXING MY CURRENT ONE
