Consumer Description

I FIRST BOUGHT THE DODGE JOURNEY IN MARCH 2015 USED FROM A DEALERSHIP. 2 MONTHS LATER I START SEEING PROBLEMS: -WHEN I LOCK THE VEHICLE, OCCASIONALLY AFTER SITTING FOR A LONG TIME I WILL COME OUT AND THE WINDOWS WILL ALL BE DOWN AND THE VEHICLE UNLOCKED -I HAVE HAD MANY OCCASIONS WHERE I TRY TO START THE VEHICLE AND IT JUST CLICKS. I HAVE TO MOVE THE SHIFTER FROM PARK TO NEUTRAL (SOMETIMES SEVERAL TIMES FOR SEVERAL MINUTES) TO GET THE VEHICLE TO START. I DO NOT WANT TO GET STRANDED WITH THIS VEHICLE!! -PASSENGER WINDOW WILL SOMETIMES NOT ROLL DOWN USING THE PASSENGER SIDE WINDOW BUTTON BUT OPERATES NORMALLY USING DRIVER SIDE CONTROLS THERE SEEMS TO BE MANY ELECTRICAL PROBLEMS WITH THIS VEHICLE AND I FEAR THAT WE WILL END UP IN A CRASH RELATED TO ELECTRICAL FAILURE.
