NHTSA Complaint #11183524 — 2016 DODGE JOURNEY

5-10-18 HAD TO BRING MY VEHICLE IN FOR A NEW TIRE AND PRIOR TO THE TIRE, THE ABS LIGHT WOULD INTERMITTENTLY POP ON AND OFF. THIS WOULD HAPPEN MOSTLY AFTER I STARTED THE VEHICLE AND AFTER BACKING UP AND TRAVELING A FEW FEET, IT WOULD SOUND AND FEEL LIKE IT WOULD CATCH AND GRIND, THEN RELEASE AFTER TRAVELING ABOUT A MILE, IT WOULD GO OFF. WHEN I BROUGHT IT IN TO GET THE TIRE REPLACED, I ASKED THEM TO LOOK AT IT, THEY SAID THE ABS LIGHT WAS COMING ON BECAUSE THE BATTERY WAS FAULTY AND THEY REPLACED THE BATTERY. (I THINK MAYBE THEY JUST RESET SOMETHING) I ASKED THEM TO GIVE ME AN ITEMIZED LIST OF PARTS CHANGED FOR THE WORK, AND I NEVER RECEIVED IT. I ONLY RECEIVED THE INVOICE FOR THE TIRE. NOW.... REAR ENDED IN DEC 27, 2018 - BETWEEN THE ACCIDENT AND TIME IT TOOK HOLIDAYS/INSURANCE TO GET ME AN APPOINTMENT WITH DEALER, THE ABS LIGHT STARTED TO POP ON AGAIN AND THE RADIO SCREEN GRAYED OUT AND CAME BACK ON(SO FAR THAT HAS ONLY HAPPENED ONCE). MY HUSBAND LET THEM KNOW TO CHECK THAT AS WELL BECAUSE THERE WAS IMPACT DAMAGE ON THE LEFT FRONT BUMPER AND DEALER ONLY REPAIRED THE DAMAGES REPORTED BY ADJUSTER AND DIDN'T ADDRESS THE ABS/RADIO ISSUE. SO..... NOW WHAT? FEEL LIKE THEY JUST PUT A BAND AID ON IT UNTIL THE WARRANTY RAN OUT AND THEN AGAIN AFTER DAMAGE SUSTAINED IN AN ACCIDENT THAT WAS NOT MY FAULT.
