NHTSA Complaint #10372007 — 2009 DODGE JOURNEY

THE 2009 DODGE JOURNEY BUILDS UP CARBON IN THE CYLINDERS. THIS WILL CAUSE THE CYLINDERS TO FAIL. THE CAR WILL SHAKE WHILE DRIVING DOWN THE ROAD AND WILL SHIFT INCORRECTLY. IT IS EXTREMELY SCARY WHILE DRIVING 55 MILES PER HOUR. YOU HAVE NO IDEAL WHAT IS WRONG. AFTER MANY TRIAL AND ERRORS WITH DODGE THE PROBLEM OF IS ONLY FIXED BY GETTING YOUR ENGINE TORE APART. THEY WILL TELL YOU AT FIRST BAD SPARK PLUGS. THIS IS INCORRECT. THEN THEY SAY BAD GAS. THIS IS INCORRECT. THEN CLEAN THE CARBON OUT. THIS TO IS A TEMPORARY FIX, THEY MUST REDO THE ENGINE, BUT I FEEL THIS IS AGAIN A TEMPORARY FIX, BECAUSE THEY JUST REPLACES PARTS IN ANOTHER 40,000 MILES IT IS BOUND TO HAPPEN AGAIN. I ONLY HOPE BY LETTING EVERYONE KNOW THIS WILL ONLY HELP TO HAVE DODGE RETHINK ABOUT REPLACING THE PARTS TIME AND TIME AGAIN, AND REALLY LOOK INTO THE MATTER AND FIX THE PROBLEM FOR THE CONSUMER. *TR
