NHTSA Complaint #11104735 — 2015 DODGE JOURNEY

1. THE DRIVER SEAT BELT DOES NOT STAY LOCKED IN. PERIODICALLY I WOULD PUT THE SEATBELTS ON AND IT WILL UNBUCKLE AS IF IT WASN'T SECURED IN. I HEARD IT CLICK. IT HAS HAPPENED SEVERAL TIMES. LUCKILY I WAS NOT MOVING AT THE TIME. 2. I RECEIVED AN TUNE UP AT APPROXIMATELY 95K MILES. ONE IF THE PISTONS WAS MISFIRING. I BELIEVE THE 6TH ONE WAS. BRAND NEW PARTS AND WAS INSTALLED BY A PROFESSIONAL MECHANIC. THERE IS A KNOCKING NOISE THAT WILL NOT GO AWAY. THE BELTS HAVE BEEN CHECKED. 3. WHILE OUT OF TOWN I WAS PARKING AND WHILE IN REVERSE IT BECAME HARD TO TURN. I LATER FOUND OUT THAT THERE WAS NO FLUID IN THE POWERSTEERING. THERE WAS A LOW FLUID INDICATION. .I IMMEDIATELY FILLED THE CAR UP WILL POWER STEERING FLUID. SINCE THEN IT HAS BEEN HARDER TO TURN MY WHEEL. IT STARTED OFF I COULD NOT TURN RIGHT WITHOUT A STRUGGLE. THEN IT WAS THE LEFT SIDE . THE ONLY WAY TO TURN IS TO ACCELERATE AND TURN. THIS CAME OUT OF NOWHERE. THE AGGRESSIVE PROGRESS IN THE LOSS IF STEERING ABILITY IS TROUBLING ESPECIALLY WITH SMALLER CHILDREN.
