Consumer Description

AT 2000 MILES ON MY 2009 DODGE JOURNEY I STARTED HAVING PROBLEMS WITH MY FRONT PASSENGER WINDOW STICKING, AND BRAKES SQUEAKING. ALSO CAR NOT SHIFTING WHEN TAKING OFF AND WHEN YOU SLOW DOWN AND TRY TO SPEED BACK UP. I TOOK IT IN. THEY TOLD ME MAYBE SAP IN WINDOW AND BRAKES FINE. THREE DAYS LATER WINDOW ACTING UP AGAIN. TOOK IT IN. SAME REASON. CLEANED AND GREASED. THIS IS THE EIGHT TIME I'VE TAKEN IT IN. THEY HAVE REPLACED MOTORS, SWITCHES, TRACKS, SEALS AND NOW WONT ROLL UP OR DOWN . THE BRAKES HAVE BEEN AN ISSUE SINCE THE START. AT 21000 MILES THE DEALER TELLS ME I NEED NEW PAD AND ROTORS. TAKE IT TO BRAKE SHOP AND THEY TELL ME ALL I NEED IS PAD. BRAKES WORKING FINE RIGHT NOW BUT STILL SQUEAK EVERY NOW AND THEN. THEY HAVE REPLACED ELECTRICAL HARNESSES THAT MAY CATCH ON FIRE. THE SQUEAKING NOISE NOW HAS TURNED INTO OTHER PARTS THAT ARE HAVING TO BE REPLACED. MY COMPUTER CHIP HAS BEEN RESET 4 TIMES AND CHEAP PLASTIC MIRRORS ON VISORS AND SUNGLASS HOLDER AND LIGHT ON INSIDE ROOF. THE SPRINGS ON MY BACK DOORS HAVE POPPED OUT LEAVING THE DOOR STUCK OPEN. WENT TO EAT WITH 23000 MILES ON THE CAR AND AFTER LEAVING THE CAR WOULD NOT START. CALLED DEALER AND THEY CALLED A TOW TRUCK AND WANTED ME TO PAY FOR THAT ALSO. MY CAR HAS BEEN IN TWO DIFFERENT DEALERSHIPS ON 10-15 DIFFERENT OCCASIONS FOR REPAIRS. THEY STILL HAVE NOT GOT THESE ISSUES FIXED. WHAT CAN I DO? *TR
