THIS VEHICLE HAS ELECTRICAL ISSUES. THE DOORS LOCK AUTOMATICALLY WHEN THE TAILGATE IS OPENED. THE RADIO AND CLIMATE CONTROL COME ON BY THEMSELVES EVEN AFTER TURNING IT OFF MULTIPLE TIMES. THE STEERING MAKES A WHINING NOISE ESPECIALLY WHEN YOU ARE TURNING TO THE LEFT. THE AWD AND TRACTION CONTROL IS OFF AND THE SERVICE AWD LIGHT COMES ON. THE CRUISE CONTROL STOPPED WORKING WHEN THERE WAS A LOUD "THUMP" IN THE REAR END AND ALL THE TRACTION AND AWD DASHBOARD LIGHTS CAME ON. ALL THESE PROBLEMS ARE EVIDENT AND OCCUR WHILE DRIVING.

I WAS DRIVING MY CAR AT APPROXIMATELY 50 MILES PER HOUR, WHEN IT SEEMS LIKE MY STEERING OR THE WHEELS SEEMED "OFF.' I CHECKED TO MAKE SURE ALL OF MY TIRES WERE CORRECTLY PRESSURED AND THEY WERE, SO I KEPT DRIVING.

A FEW TIME THE ABS LIGHT HAS COME ON BUT ONLY FOR A MINUTE OR 2 SINCE WE BOUGHT IT. TODAY 8/2/2019 IT CAME ON ALONG WITH THE BRAKE LIGHT AND (NO TRACTION LIGHT (THE SWIVELING CAR IMAGE LIGHT). WE HAVE HAD A LOT OF HEAVY RAIN. WE WHERE TOLD BY SERVICING STATION BY DIAGNOSTIC TEST IT WAS THE ABS CONTROL MODULE SYSTEM MALFUNCTION. AND IF WE DID NOT GET FIXED OUR BRAKES COULD LOCK UP AND SYSTEM FREEZE UP. THIS IS DEFINITELY A SAFETY ISSUE THAT WAS CORRECTED IN PAST BUT IS NOW HAPPENING AGAIN. THESE LIGHTS CAME ON JUST AS WE STARED TO DRIVE. WHEN THE CAR WAS RESTING FOR 30 MINUTES AND...

THE ISSUE WITH MY CAR IS THAT THE TRACTION LIGHT TURNED ON IT DOES THIS ALOT IT EVENTUALLY WILL TURN OF ON ITS OWN THEN WHILE I'M DRIVING IT WILL DECIDE TO TURN BACK ON CAUSING MY JOURNEY TO DO A LITTLE STALL. THIS HAPPENS AT RANDOM TIMES AND IS STAYS ON FOR A LONG TIME TO. THERE ARE TIMES WHEN I'M DRIVING IT'LL FLASH LIKE IT WANTS TO TURN ON THEN TURN OFF. THIS HAPPENS ON THEY HIGHWAY EVEN DRIVING DOWNTHE STREET

I HAD A ABS LIGHT AND ESC LIGHT APPEAR, PULLED INTO GAS STATION. APPROACHED THE FUEL PUMPS AND PRESSED THE BRAKES AND SLID ON THE ICY PAVEMENT (SNOWY MICHIGAN) INTO THE GAS PUMP PROTECTORS MADE OF CONCRETE. COULDN'T CONTROL THE VEHICLE @~8MPH SLIGHTLY TURNED APPROACHING A GAS PUMP ON WET/ICY CONCRETE.

DRIVING ON HIGHWAY HAD TO PULL OVER. PUT HAZARD LIGHTS ON GRASS WAS WET. WHEN DONE WE GOT STUCK SO I OUT THE ABS BUTTON ON AND THE TRACTION AND ABS LIGHTS STAYED ON THE DASH FOR 20 MILES, THEN THEY TURNED OFF FOR A BRIEF MOMENT AND THEY'VE BEEN ON EVER SINCE. COMPUTER MODULE AT OUR LOCAL STORE IS NOT GIVING A PROBLEM WHEN PLUGGED INTO THE FUSE BOX WITH THEIR HANDHELD COMPUTER.

ABS AND TRACTION CONTROL LIGHTS ILLUMINATED. DIAGNOSED BY THE DEALERSHIP THAT THE ABS MODULE NEEDED TO BE REPLACED. BRAKES CONTINUED TO WORK AND AT FIRST THE ABS AND TRACTION CONTROL WENT ON AND OFF INTERMITTENTLY.

AUTOMATIC TRANSMISSION HAS SOME PROBLEM TOO.

MYSELF AND MY 3 YOUNG CHILDREN WERE DRIVING DOWN A PRETTY DARK HIGHWAY AT ABOUT 10 PM. 3 HOURS FROM HOME. IN A STORM AND VERY HEAVY RAIN. VEHICLE SUDDENLY LOST POWER. WHEN I GAVE IT GAS THE ENGINE JUST REVVED. LOST ALL POWER INCLUDING WINDSHIELD WIPERS AND POWER STEERING I QUICKLY DROPPED FROM 75 TO 40 WITH SEMIS BARRELING UP BEHIND ME AS I WAS TRYING TO GET TO A SHOULDER TO PULL OFF ON. CAR DIED AND WOULD NOT RESTART. WE WERE STUCK ON THE SIDE OF THE ROAD FOR 5 HOURS WITH NO HEAT AND NO POWER TO THE CAR. EVEN CALLLED ROADSIDE AND THEY TRIED TO JUMP IT. IT WOULD START BUT THEN GO HAYWIRE AGAIN. BATTERY LIGHT AND ETC AS WELL AS ALL OTHERS LIGHTS COME ON. IT HAS LEFT ME AND MY KIDS IN THE COLD MORE THAN ONCE. NO ONE SEEMS TO KNOW...

FAULTY ABS MODULE DUE TO WATER LEAK, RECALLED ON VERY MANY 2012 DODGE JOURNEYS. FOR SOME REASON, NOT RECALLED ON MINE. NOTICED BRAKE LIGHT, ABS LIGHT, AND TRACTION LIGHT CAME ON, I HAD A DIAGNOSTIC DONE BY MY OWN MECHANIC AND CONFIRMED OVER THE PHONE WITH THE DODGE DEALERSHIP THAT I WAS COVERED UNDER THE RECALL. AFTER DROPPING MY CAR OFF AND THE MECHANICS THERE NOT FIXING THE ISSUE, I WAS TOLD THAT MY VIN ACTUALLY WAS NOT COVERED UNDER THAT RECALL. SO MY ABS MODULE IS FAULTY FOR NO OBVIOUS OR APPARENT REASON. I RARELY DRIVE ON HIGHWAYS, I NEVER GOT INTO ANY ACCIDENTS, THE 3 NOTIFICATION LIGHTS AS NOTED ABOVE JUST CAME ON ONE DAY WHEN I TURNED THE CAR ON.

WHILE NORMAL DRIVING ON HIGHWAY , MY [ ABS ) LIGHT AND THE SQUIGGLY CAR LIGHT COMES ON . THEN AFTER AWHILE OR SHUTTING CAR OFF AND RESTARTING THE ENGINE , THE LIGHTS GO OFF . THEN IT HAPPENS AGAIN FREQUENTLY ON A DAILY BASIS .

MY DODGE WHILE RIDING RADIO COME ON GO OFF THE HEATER TURN ALL THE WAY UP AND IT WANT CRANK MOST TIME YOU GET READY TO GO IT JUST GOES HAYWIRE NOT DEPENDABLE BROUGHT A BATTERY THOUGHT THAT WAS THE PROBLEM BUT NOT

THEY'RE ARE RECALLS FOR ALL THE ISSUES I'M HAVING WITH MY VEHICLE BUT WHEN I PUT THE VIN IN IT DOESN'T FALL UNDER THE RECALL LIST. I DON'T SEE HOW THEY CAN CHOOSE WHAT CARS TO FIX IF THE SAME PROBLEMS AND PARTS ARE ON ALL THEM. SO I GUESS DODGE IS DEFINITELY NOT THE VEHICLE TO BUY SINCE THEY DON'T STAND BEHIND THEY'RE WORK. I WAS DRIVING AND THE ABS LIGHT AND TRACTION CONTROL LIGHT CAME ON AND CRUISE CONTROL STOPPED WORKING. AND FROM WHAT I'VE BEEN TOLD IT'S THE BRAKE SENSOR AND THAT'S ONE OF THE RECALLS MY VEHICLE VIN DOESN'T FALL UNDER.

WHILE RAINING I HAD WENT TO TURN AND THE POWER STEERING HAD GONE. I HAD LITTLE TO NO CONTROL OVER MY 2012 DODGE JOURNEY. WARNING LIGHTS COME AND MAINLY THE AIRBAG LIGHT WHEN TURNING. THE BATTERY BEEN REPLACED AND I HAD A RECALL PREFORMED FOR LAKE OF WIRING COVERS. I HAVE TAKING IT TO TWO DIFFERENT DEALERSHIPS AND THEY DO NOT TAKE ME SERIOUS. ALWAYS TRYING TO GET ME TO BUY A NEW CAR. INSTEAD OF FIXING MY CURRENT ONE

MY VEHICLE ODOMETER WOULD JUMP FROM 0 TO 30 WHILE IN MOTION(FOOT ON PEDAL) AND VICE VERSA. WIPERBLADES STARTED ALL ON IT'S ON WITHOUT BEING TURNED ON. NO CURRENT IS BEING BROUGHT TO WHOLE ENTIRE VEHICLE. VEHICLE WON'T TURN OVER OR LOCK WITHOUT BEING HOOKED TO ANOTHER BATTERY. CAN JUMP START BUT ONCE CONNECTION IS OFF THE VEHICLE SHUTS BACK OFF. ALL LIGHTS FLICKERED ON AND OFF ON DASH BOARD WHEN THEY NEVER CAME ON THE 2 YEARS I HAD THE VEHICLE.

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2012 DODGE JOURNEY. WHILE DRIVING 30 MPH WITH THE ACCELERATOR PEDAL DEPRESSED, THE VEHICLE FAILED TO ACCELERATE. THE VEHICLE STOPPED MOVING AND THE STABILITY AND TRACTION WARNING INDICATORS ILLUMINATED. THE VEHICLE WAS TOWED TO 5 CORNERS DODGE CHRYSLER JEEP RAM (1292 WASHINGTON AVE, CEDARBURG, WI 53012, (262-375-3900), BUT THE FAILURE COULD NOT BE DUPLICATED. THE CONTACT MENTIONED THAT THE FAILURE OCCURRED AT LEAST THREE DIFFERENT TIMES. THE CONTACT FOUND NHTSA CAMPAIGN NUMBER: 15V675000 (ELECTRONIC STABILITY CONTROL, SERVICE BRAKES, HYDRAULIC), BUT THE VIN WAS NOT INCLUDED BECAUSE THE VEHICLE WAS MANUFACTURED IN FEBRUARY OF 2012 VERSUS APRIL 12, 2012 TO APRIL 14, 2015, AS THE RECALL STATED. THE MANUFACTURER WAS NOT MADE AWARE OF THE FAILURE. THE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS 107,000.

THE POWER IN MY VEHICLE WENT OUT AND MY BREAKS LOCKED UP, THE CAR JUST DIES. NO HAZARDS OR ANYTHING. MY CAR STOPPED WHILE DRIVING DOWN A HEAVY TRAFFIC STREET. TWO CARS ALMOST HIT MY KIDS AND I. THE CAR DOES COME BACK ON A FEW SECONDS LATER OR SEVERAL MINUTES LATER. THE LONGEST TIME PERIOD WAS WHEN I GOT THE CAR TOWED TO A SHOP SATURDAY. ONCE, WE ARRIVED AT THE SHOP IT HAD COME BACK ON. THIS IS NOT THE FIRST TIME AND I FEAR EVEN AFTER WE GET IT FROM THE SHOP IT WILL NOT BE THE LAST.

LOSS OF VEHICAL SPEED, GRINDING NOISE & BRAKING, TROUBLE STEERING, LOSE OF CONTROL AROUND A BEND, HUMMING & GRINDIG NOISE FROM ABS INGAGING BRAKING, WHILE VEHICLE WAS IN MOTION, DRIVING AT 40 MPH SPEED, ON CITY STREETS. ESC (ELCETRONIC STABILTIY CONTROL) WARNING LIGHT COME ON FLASHING INDICATING FAILER OF THE CLOCK SPRING MODUAL.

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2012 DODGE JOURNEY. WHILE DRIVING 55 MPH, THE BRAKE PEDAL WAS DEPRESSED AND THE ABS AND ANTI-SKID WARNING INDICATORS ILLUMINATED. THE VEHICLE WAS TAKEN TO AN INDEPENDENT MECHANIC WHERE THE DIAGNOSIS WAS UNKNOWN; HOWEVER, BOTH THE FRONT AND REAR BRAKE PADS AND FRONT ROTORS WERE REPLACED. THE FAILURE PERSISTED AND THE INDEPENDENT MECHANIC INFORMED THE CONTACT OF A RECALL, AND SUGGESTED HE CALL THE MANUFACTURER. THE MANUFACTURER WAS NOTIFIED OF THE FAILURE AND INFORMED HIM THAT THE VIN WAS INCLUDED IN NHTSA CAMPAIGN NUMBER: 17V432000 (AIR BAGS). THE VEHICLE WAS TAKEN TO WALDORF DODGE (2294 CRAIN HWY, WALDORF, MD 20601 (301) 232-0946) WHERE THE AIR BAG RECALL WAS SERVICED. THE CONTACT INFORMED THE DEALER OF THE BRAKE FAILURE, BUT THE DEALER FAILED TO DIAGNOSE OR REPAIR THE BRAKE FAILURE. THE VIN WAS NOT INCLUDED IN NHTSA CAMPAIGN NUMBER: 15V675000 (ELECTRONIC STABILITY CONTROL, SERVICE BRAKES, HYDRAULIC)....

ON AUGUST 3RD 2017 I PURCHASED A 2012 DODGE JOURNEY WITH 32000 MILES. ON AUGUST 4 2017 I PICKED THE VEHICLE UP. I NOTICED THAT EVENING THAT THE FRONT RIGHT HEADLIGHT WAS NOT WORKING. I BROUGHT THE CAR BACK TO THE DEALER AND THEY FIXED IT. ON AUGUST 13, 2017 THE TIRE PRESSURE LIGHT CAME ON. I WENT TO FILL THE TIRE BUT IT SEEMED FINE. I FIGURED IT WAS JUST A SENSOR THAT NEEDED TO BE FIXED. AUGUST 15, 2017 THE CHANGE OIL LIGHT CAME ON EVEN THOUGH IT DIDN'T NEED TO BE SERVICED. AUGUST 17, 2017 AS I WENT TO PUT THE CAR IN DRIVE THE CAR SEEMED TO BE PULLING AND THE TRACTION CONTROL LIGHT CAME ON. THEN THE ABS LIGHT AND THE MAINTENANCE AWD LIGHT CAME ON ALONG WITH THE OTHERS. THE CAR WILL HESITATE TO ACCELERATE AND MAKES A KIND OF GRINDING NOISE OFF AND...

WHILE DRIVING THE CAR SUDDENLY LOSSES POWER AND THE STABILITY LIGHTS AND ABS LIGHTS ALL FLASH. THIS OCCURS WHILE DRIVING ON THE CITY STREET AND HIGHWAY AND TURNING. THE SHOP SAYS THEY DO NOT KNOW WHAT IS CAUSING IT. THERE ARE LOTS OF CUSTOMERS ON THE INTERNET WITH THE SAME TYPE OF PROBLEMS. THIS DOES NOT OCCUR WHILE SITTING STILL ONLY IN MOTION. THIS HAS HAPPENED NUMEROUS TIMES AND WHEN WE CHECK FOR CODES ALL IT SAYS IF ENGINE MISFIRE EVEN THOUGH THERE ARE STABILITY LIGHT AND ABS LIGHT ON.

MY CAR IS EXHIBITING ALL OF THE PROBLEMS THAT OTHER 2012 DODGE JOURNEYS ARE UNDER A RECALL FOR, REGARDING THE ABS, AND TRACTION CONTROL, BUT I'M BEING TOLD BY THE DEALER THAT MY CAR ISN'T COVERED UNDER THIS RECALL. I HAVE RESURCHED AND QUITE A FEW PEOPLE ARE HAVING THIS SAME ISSUE, AND BEING DENIED THE RECALL. THE RECALL NEEDS TO BE EXPANDED. MY CAR HAS 110000 MILES ON IT. I HAD THE BRAKES CHANGED LAST YEAR BY THE DEALERSHIP, AND THEY HAVE CONTINUED TO MAKE NOISES LIKE A SPINNING RUSTY WHEEL, AND NOW I HAVE LOST MY ABS, AND TRACTION CONTROL, WHICH THEN TAKES MY CRUISE CONTROL. CARS SHOULD NOT COME APART JUST BECAUSE THEY REACH THE 100000 MILE MARK. I CAN CLEARLY SEE I'M NOT THE ONLY PERSON DEALING WITH THIS SAME ISSUE, SO THEY NEED TO LOOK INTO THIS!

THE BRAKE WARNING LIGHT, ABS WARNING LIGHT AND TRACTION CONTROL WARNING LIGHTS COME ON RANDOMLY. SOMETIMES THE BRAKES FAIL TO ENGAGE WHEN THE ABS LIGHT IS LIT AND THE VEHICLE MAKES A WEIRD NOISE (SOUNDS LIKE GRINDING SOUND). YESTERDAY MY WIFE WAS UNABLE TO STOP AT A TRAFFIC SIGNAL AND WENT THROUGH A RED LIGHT WHEN THE BRAKES WOULD NOT WORK. THIS MODEL AND YEAR ARE UNDER A RECALL R61 (HHTSA 15V675000) BUT CHRYSLER SUPPORT SAYS OUR VIN IS NOT COVERED. TURNS OUT THAT THE MANUFACTURE DATE OF OUR CAR IS ABOUT 6 MONTHS PRIOR TO THE REPORTED RECALL MANUFACTURING DATES. THIS IS A DANGEROUS SITUATION THAT THEY REFUSE TO EVEN LOOK AT OR DIAGNOSE WITHOUT CHARGING US TO DO SO. IT DOES NOT TAKE A ROCKET SCIENTIST TO SEE THAT OUR VEHICLE IS EXHIBITING THE EXACT SAME PROBLEMS AND SYMPTOMS AS DETAILED IN THE ABOVE RECALL. I GUESS THEY...

FOR THE LAST FOUR WEEKS MY VEHICLE JUST STOPS IN THE MIDDLE OF DRIVING AND SHUTS OFF THE STEERING WHEEL LOCKS AND THE CAR IS NOT MOVABLE FOR WELL OVER A FEW MINUTES. HAVE TAKEN THE VEHICLE TO BE CHECKED AND IT CLAIMS TO BE NOTHING BUT YET THE SAME PROBLEM PERSIST PLEASE ADVISE ME ON WHAT I SHOULD DO, THE VEHICLE IS AT 90,000 MILES AND I WANT TO FIGURE OUT THE PROBLEM PLEASE AND TY IN ADVANCE. *TR

I WAS DRIVING ONTO THE ENTRANCE TO THE EXPRESSWAY AND MY CAR WOULD NOT PICK UP SPEED. IT STARTED HESITATING AND WOULD NOT PICK UP SPEED, THE ESC LIGHT CAME ON AND STARTED BLINKING AS WELL AS THE ETC LIGHT CAME ON. I IMMEDIATELY GOT OFF THE EXPRESSWAY AT THE NEXT EXIT WHEN I CAME TO A STOP , THE CAR STALLED AND CUT OFF I COULD HAVE BEEN REAR ENDED I PUT MY FLASHERS ON AND STARTED THE CAR IT STARTED BUT IT WAS STILL HESITATING I PULLED OVER IN A CAR PARKING LOT AND TURNED IT OFF I TURNED IT BACK ON AGAIN AND DROVE HOME SLOWLY AND MADE AN APPOINTMENT TO THE CAR DEALERSHIP THE LIGHTS DID NOT COME BACK ON I FEEL VERY VERY UNSAFE DRIVING THIS CAR.
