NHTSA Complaint #10662299 — 2009 DODGE JOURNEY

WHILE IN THE DRIVE THROUGH CAR TURNED OFF AND I COULDN'T STOP AND SCRAPED THE DRIVERSIDE FENDER ON A YELLOW BARRIER POLE. I THOUGHT IT WAS A FLUKE (A WTF MOMENT) SO I NEVER WORRIED ABOUT IT AGAIN. IT STILL CUTS OFF EVERY NOW AND AGAIN BUT I AM USUALLY PARKED OR MOVING SLOWLY. I DID GET PULLED OVER ONE TIME WHEN THE CAR CUT OFF AND TO STOP I HAD TO PUT IT IN PARK SO I WOULDN'T RUN A STOPSIGHN ONTO HWY 99. (HE LET ME GO) WENT FOR THE RECALL ON THE IGNITION SAT FOR OVER AN HOUR ONLY TO BE TOLD THEY DONT HAVE THE REPLACEMENT PART OR KNOW WHEN THEY WILL HAVE IT. ON MANY OCCASIONS I AM UNABLE TO GET THE CAR TO START. WHEN THIS HAPPENS I HAVE TO PLACE THE CAR IN NEUTRAL AND TRY AGAIN. THE CAR WILL START ONCE PLACED IN NEUTRAL. WHENEVER THERE IS A THUNDERSTORM THE DRIVERSIDE REAR DOOR WILL FILL UP WITH WATER FROM THE OUTSIDE. IF I SLAM THE DOOR HARD THE WATER WILL FLOW OUT OF THE BOTTOM. FRONT BRAKES GRIND AND SQUEEK NO MATTER IF THE PADS ARE NEW OR HAVE BEEN ON FOR A WHILE. (I TRIED NEW ROTORS TO) WIRING RECALL WAS FIXED ONLY TO DO THE SAMETHING AS BEFORE MONTHS LATER. *TR
