NHTSA Complaint #10779143 — 2011 DODGE JOURNEY

MY VEHICLE HAS BEEN IN THE SHOP TWICE IN 2 WEEKS. IT STARTED WITH A TRANSMISSION ISSUE. I WAS DRIVING TO WORK LAST MONDAY WHEN THE CAR WOULD NOT SHIFT INTO GEAR. THE ENGINE CONTINUED TO IDLE, BUT IT WOULD NOT GO INTO THE NEXT GEAR. AFTER HAVING IT TOWED TO CARMAX WHERE IT WAS PURCHASED. THEY SENT IT TO THE TRANSMISSION SHOP WHO LATER CONFIRMED MY TORQUE CONVERTOR WAS FAULTY. SO IT WAS REPLACED. MY TRUCK WAS IN THE SHOP FROM 9/21-9/25. I WAS FINALLY ABLE TO PICK IT UP ON MONDAY 9/28. WELL, I PICKED IT UP AND IT WAS DRIVING FINE. THEN ALL OF A SUDDEN YESTERDAY 9/30, I GO OUTSIDE ON MY LUNCH BREAK AND IT WILL NOT START AT ALL. THE LIGHTS, CLOCK, RADIO, SEATS...ETC ALL WORK FINE. BUT, THE VEHICLE WILL NOT START. NO CLICKING NOISES OR ANYTHING. IT IS NOT TRYING TO TURN OVER AT ALL. I TOOK IT BACK TO THE TRANSMISSION SHOP WHO LAST WORKED ON IT AND THEY CAN NOT FIGURE OUT WHAT IS WRONG. THEY SAY THE DIAGNOSTIC MACHINE IS NOT PICKING UP ON ANYTHING! I HAVE TO WAIT UNTIL THE MORNING TO CALL THE DODGE DEALERSHIP TO SEE IF THEY CAN NOW TAKE A LOOK AT IT. THIS IS VERY FRUSTRATING!!!! I WILL UPDATE AGAIN ONCE I KNOW WHAT THE PROBLEM IS.
