Consumer Description
I AM THE SECOND OWNER OF A 2010 DODGE JOURNEY (BOUGHT IN 2011). THE ORIGINAL OWNERS TRADED IT IN AFTER NOT OWNING IT A YEAR. I WAS NOT TOLD THAT IT WAS ALREADY HAVING PROBLEMS UNTIL I MET ONE OF THE MECHANICS AT THE DODGE DEALERSHIP WHEN I BROUGHT IT IN FOR IGNITION PROBLEMS. HE TOLD ME THAT HE KNEW I WOULD BE BACK. THE IGNITION RECALL HAS BEEN COMPLETED TWICE ON MY VEHICLE. I STILL HAVE THE NOT STARTING ISSUE THAT I HAVE SEEN IN OTHER COMPLAINTS. I AM ALSO EXPERIENCING THE ELECTRICAL PROBLEMS THAT I AM READING ABOUT HERE. NO POWER TO THE DASH, WINDSHIELD WIPERS, OR WINDOWS. THIS JUST ISN'T A SAFE SITUATION. I HAVE HAD A COMPUTER MODULE REPLACED, BUT THAT DIDN'T CORRECT THE PROBLEM. THE DEALERSHIP CAN NEVER FIND THE PROBLEM. NOW I AM OUT OF WARRANTY (80,000) AND THE PROBLEM IS STILL HAPPENING AND GETTING WORSE. MY CAR HAS STOPPED WHILE GOING DOWN THE ROAD TWICE. LUCKILY I WAS ABLE TO PULL OFF AND RESTART. SOMETHING NEEDS TO BE DONE ABOUT THESE PROBLEMS. I HAVE NOT NOTIFIED DODGE DIRECTLY, BUT HAVE BEEN TO MY DODGE DEALERSHIP SEVERAL TIMES WITH THE SAME COMPLAINTS. NOTHING SEEMS TO GET FIXED. *TR
