NHTSA Complaint #10652430 — 2010 DODGE JOURNEY AWD

THE 2010 DODGE JOURNEY WE OWN HAS JUST BEEN ONE PROBLEM AFTER ANOTHER. WE DID NOT PURCHASE IT NEW, WE PURCHASED IT PRE-OWNED FROM THE DODGE DEALERSHIP. BUT WE HAVE PAID TO KEEP IT UP AND STAY AHEAD OF MOST PROBLEMS BUT THERE ARE SEVERAL THAT ARE REOCCURING AND NOTHING SEEMS TO MAKE THEM ANY BETTER. THE LIGHTS ON THE DASHBOARD WILL LIGHT UP AND WHEN YOU TAKE IT IN TO BE LOOKED AT THERE IS NOTHING THAT CAN BE FOUND WRONG WITH IT. THE BRAKES SEEM TO GO BAD PRETTY FREQUENTLY. WE ARE CONSTANTLY GETTING THE LIGHT THAT TELLS US THAT THE ESC IS DISABLED AND WHEN YOU TAKE IT TO GET SOMEONE TO LOOK AT IT THEY CANNOT FIND WHAT IS CAUSING THIS. IT JUST SEEMS LIKE WE ARE PUTTING MORE AND MORE MONEY INTO THE 2010 DODGE JOURNEY WE OWN. CONSTANTLY PAYING A MECHANIC TO LOOK AT IT AND FIX THE MOST RECENT ISSUE THAT ARISES FROM THE WARNING LIGHTS ON THE DASH. WE CANNOT TRADE IT IN BECAUSE WE STILL OWE ON THE VEHICLE AND WE CANNOT AFFORD AN INCREASE IN THE PAYMENT. DODGE DOES NOT ADMIT THAT IT IS A DEFECTIVE MODEL OR THAT THERE IS ANYTHING THAT IS CAUSING THIS. I AM HOPING THAT SOMEONE WILL LOOK INTO THE 2010 DODGE JOURNEY AND ALL IT'S PROBLEMS AND GIVE SOME SORT OF RELIEF TO THOSE OF US WHO PURCHACED ONE OF THESE PROBLEM CARS WITHOUT KNOWING THAT THE BRAKES WOULD CONSTANTLY GO BAD AND THERE WILL BE A LITTLE "DEMON" IN THE CAR THAT FLIPS THE LIGHTS ON AND OFF ON THE DASHBOARD WHENEVER HE FEELS LIKE IT. I KNOW I CANNOT BE THE ONLY PERSON THAT HAS HAD NOTHING BUT TROUBLE WITH A 2010 DODGE JOURNEY. BUT MAYBE DODGE CAN TAKE THIS DEMON INFESTED CAR BACK AND GIVE MY FAMILY SOMETHING THAT WE FEEL A LITTLE BIT MORE SAFE IN. *TR
