WHEN YOU ARE DRIVING THE VEHICLE IT STARTS TO CHANGE GEARS VERY VIOLENTLY. EVENTUALLY NOT TOO LONG AFTER THAT THE CAR DINGS, THE CHECK ENGINE LIGHT COMES ON THE CAR SHUTS ITSELF OFF AND HOPEFULLY IF YOU ARE IN A SAFE AREA OF ROAD YOU CAN PULL OVER, PUT THE VEHICLE IN PARK, THEN TURN IT OFF AND ON AGAIN THEN CONTINUE. THERE IS NO TRIGGER TO IT HAPPENING, NO SPECIFIC CONDITIONS, IT CAN HAPPEN WHILE TURNING, DRIVING, ON THE FREEWAY, ON A BUSY STREET, IN A ROUND A BOUT, ( ALL OF WHICH I HAVE EXPERIENCED) IT DOESN'T MATTER. IT HAS ALSO BEEN HAPPENING SINCE ABOUT A MONTH AFTER I PURCHASED THE VEHICLE WHICH WAS OCTOBER 2019 AND HAS BEEN HAPPENING SINCE EVEN AFTER ALL THE TRIPS TO THE SERVICE CENTER AND DAYS OUT OF WORK.

VEHICLE SIMPLY TURNED OFF ON ITS OWN WHILE I WAS DRIVING. I HAD JUST BEGAN ACCELERATING FROM A STOP LIGHT AND IN THE MIDST OF A TURN WHEN THE VEHICLE FAILED. AFTER STOPPING THEN THE CHECK ENGINE LIGHT ILLUMINATED. I WAS STUCK AT A LARGE INTERSECTION FOR A FEW MINUTES AS TRYING TO TURN THE VEHICLE BACK ON RESULTED IN IT JUST KIND OF JERKING/STUTTERING INITIALLY. EVENTUALLY I WAS ABLE TO TURN IT BACK ON AND DRIVE A BIT DOWN THE ROAD WHEN IT TURNED OFF AGAIN BUT AT LEAST I MADE IT TO A BUSINESS' PARKING LOT.

ENGINE STALLS WHILE DRIVING CAUSING VEHICLE TO SHUT OFF WITH NO WARNING. IT HAS TO COAST TO A STOP AS POWER STEERING AND BRAKES GO OUT ONCE SHUT OFF. THIS IS VERY DANGEROUS AND COULD CAUSE A FATAL ACCIDENT. I HAVE TAKEN THE VEHICLE TO THE SHOP AND NOTHING COULD BE FOUND WRONG WITH IT. THIS IS VERY FRUSTRATING AND POTENTIALLY FATAL.

MY 2016 DODGE JOURNEY EXPERIENCED A CRANKSHAFT POSITION SENSOR "A" CIRCUIT MALFUNCTION (OBD CODE P0335) WHILE I WAS DRIVING, RESULTING IN AN ENGINE STALL AND TOTAL LOSS OF POWER. NEARLY RESULTED IN A CRASH. I'VE SINCE OBSERVED FROM OTHER DRIVERS THAT THIS IS A VERY COMMON FAILURE ON THE DODGE JOURNEY, AND A SERIOUS SAFETY ISSUE. A RECALL FOR THIS PROBLEM (SAFETY RECALL S89 / NHTSA 16V-907) WAS ISSUED IN FEBRUARY 2017, BUT APPLIES ONLY TO A LIMITED NUMBER OF VEHICLES BUILT FROM MAY TO JULY 2016. BASED ON MY OWN EXPERIENCE AND THAT OF OTHER OWNERS AS REPORTED ONLINE, I BELIEVE THE ISSUE IS MORE WIDESPREAD THAN THE NHTSA APPARENTLY BELIEVES, AND I SUGGEST THAT THE EXISTING RECALL BE EXPANDED CONSIDERABLY.

AT THE END OF JAN/BEGINNING OF FEB I CONTACTED DODGE CARES WITH CATALYTIC CONVERTER ISSUE AND MY CAR WAS JUST AT WARRANTY OF THE THAT 30 MILES FROM WARRANTY AND WANTED THEM TO GIVE AN EXTENSION BECAUSE AS SOON AS THE LIGHT CAME ON I COULD NOT GET TO THE DEALERSHIP. I HAVE A 2016 DODGE JOURNEY AND HAVE LONG COMMUTES. I WAS ABLE TO HAVE A MOBILE MECHANIC DIAGNOSE FOR ME. DODGE WAS UNHELPFUL AND WOULD ONLY TAKE THEIR DEALERSHIPS DIAGNOSTIC. THEN 6 WEEKS LATER IT COMES OUT THAT DODGE 2016 JOURNEYS ARE HAVING CATALYTIC ISSUES BUT MINE WILL NOT ANYTHING MAILED OUT IF AFFECTED UNTIL Q4 OF 2019 AND DODGE IS ALSO TELLING ME AT THIS POINT MY CAR WHICH IS A V4 DODGE 2016 WITH CATALYTIC FAILURE AT THE MILEAGE I TOLD THEM IS NOT PART OF THE RECALL. IT REALLY DOES NOT MAKE SENSE THAT MINE...

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2016 DODGE JOURNEY. WHILE DRIVING 20 MPH, THE VEHICLE FAILED TO ACCELERATE WHEN THE ACCELERATOR PEDAL WAS DEPRESSED. THE CONTACT STATED THAT THE ELECTRONIC THROTTLE CONTROL WARNING INDICATOR WAS ILLUMINATED. THE CONTACT WAS ABLE TO DRIVE TO A NEARBY PARKING LOT.

WHILE DRIVING MY JOURNEY WILL STALL AND I LOSE POWER STEERING AND BRAKES WITH NO WARNING. IT ALSO RANDOMLY HAPPENS WHEN STOPPING. THIS HAS HAPPENED WHILE SITTING IN TRAFFIC AT A RED LIGHT AND WHEN IT TURNS GREEN MY CAR DOESN'T MOVE. HAD TO PUT IT IN PARK AND RESTARTED WITH NO ISSUES. THIS HAPPENED WHEN STOPPING AT A STOP SIGN. HAD TO PUT IT IN PARK AND RESTART. THIS HAPPENED WHEN SLOWING DOWN TO TURN LEFT. LOST ALL POWER STEERING AND BRAKES. ALMOST HAD A HEAD ON COLLISION AND REAR ENDED WITH 2 CHILDREN IN THE CAR. AFTER I GOT THE CAR TO STOP I HAD TO PUT IT IN PARK AND START. EVERY TIME THIS ISSUE HAPPENS I HAVE TO PUT IT IN PARK AND IT STARTS RIGHT BACK UP. I HAVE TAKEN TO THE DEALERSHIP TWICE, SAME ISSUES AND THEY SAY NOTHING IS WRONG BECAUSE THEY ARE...

2016 DODGE JOURNEY POWER SHUTS OFF WHILE DRIVING ON A CITY STREET. REPLACED ONCE ALREADY AND SAME CODE CAME UP: CRANKSHAFT. THIS WILL BE THE SECOND TIME REPLACING IT IN UNDER SIX MONTHS.

I WAS DRIVING MY 2016 DODGE JOURNEY CROSSROAD AND THE ABS LIGHTS CAME ON AND THEN I FELT MY CAR JERK LIKE IT WAS GOING TO STALL. I TRIED TO GET OFF THE FREEWAY AND MY CAR STALLED OUT. I PUT IT IN DRIVE AND IT WOULD STALL AGAIN. IT SOUNDED LIKE THE ENGINE WAS GOING TO FALL OUT OF MY CAR. IT WOULD STALL OUT EVEN IN REVERSE. IT WOULD ONLY RUN IN PARK. THE TOW TRUCK DRIVER SAID IT SOUNDS LIKE THE CRANK SHAFT OR TRANSMISSION. MY CAR IS ONLY 3YRS OLD AND WELL TAKEN CARE OF. NO CHECK ENGINE LIGHT CAME ON, THE SCANNER WOULDN'T READ ANY ERROR CODES. I AM CURRENTLY WAITING ON THE MECHANIC TO LOOK AT IT THIS WEEKEND, MY 9MONTH OLD NIECE AND I ALMOST DIED BY BEING REAR ENDED BY TRAFFIC COMING OFF THE OFF RAMP.

FOR THE PAST WEEK, WHILE TAKING MY CHILDREN TO SCHOOL, ON A RESIDENTIAL STREET, THE CAR STALLS. I WILL BE ON THE ROAD AND GO TO SLOW DOWN BECAUSE I AM COMING UP ON A CAR AT THE STOP SIGN AND THE CAR STALLS OUT. I HAVE TO PUT IT IN PARK, TURN IT OFF, AND THEN TURN IT BACK ON AGAIN. AGAIN, THIS HAPPENS EVERY DAY.

THE REVERSE HAS QUIT WORKING AND THE RADIO GOES IN AND OUT AND CHANGES ON OWN AND TURNS VOLUME UP AND DOWN KEYS POP UP NOT DETECTED WHILE DRIVING

VEHICLE STALLS RANDOMLY. MOSTLY AT LOW SPEEDS OR SLOWING DOWN.

VEHICLE WAS IN REVERSE. AS SOON AS THE GAS WAS PRESSED THE ENGINE STALLED OUT. WE WERE PULLING OUT FROM A PARKING SPOT WHEN IT HAPPENED. THIS IS NOW THE FOURTH INSTANCE IN 4 WEEKS THIS HAS HAPPENED. CLEARLY CHRYSLER HASN'T FOUND ALL ITS VEHICLES PRODUCED WITH THIS PROBLEM SIMPLY BECAUSE THE VIN# SAYS IT SHOULD BE FINE

VEHICLE WAS IN DRIVE WHEN THE ENGINE CUT OUT. ALL CONTROL OF THE VEHICLE WAS LOST. THIS HAS HAPPENED TWICE WITHIN ONE WEEK

WHILE THE VEHICLE IS IN MOTION ON THE HIGHWAY THE CHECK ENGINE LIGHT AND TRACTION CONTROL LIGHT APPEAR. WHEN THIS HAPPENS, THE VEHICLE LOSES ALL POWER AND BRAKES. AT THIS POINT I AM UNABLE TO ACCELERATE TO MOVE TO A SAFE AREA WHERE THE CAR NEEDS TO BE TURNED OFF AND RESTARTED. ONCE THE VEHICLE IS TURNED OFF AND BACK ON THE CHECK ENGINE LIGHT STAYS LIT AND THE TRACTION CONTROL LIGHT WILL TURN OFF MOMENTARILY. UPON DRIVING THE VEHICLE AGAIN, THE TRACTION CONTROL LIGHT WILL TURN BACK ON AND THE PREVIOUS STEPS NEED TO BE REPEATED.

DURING RUSH HOUR, I WAS ON THE WAY TO PICK UP MY DAUGHTER FROM DAY CARE. AS I SLOWED DOWN INTO THE TURNING/MERGE LANE AT AN INTERSECTION, MY CAR JUST TURNED OFF WITHOUT PRIOR WARNING. I CAME TO A STOP AND ATTEMPTED A RESTART, BUT IT WOULD NOT ALLOW A RESTART UNTIL THE 6TH TRY. MY HAZARD LIGHTS WOULD NOT TURN ON, SO I HAD TO WAVE ANGRY DRIVERS TO GO AROUND ME. IT WAS VERY STRESSFUL BECAUSE I WAS AFRAID OF BEING REAR-ENDED WHILE WAITING FOR IT TO RESTART SO I COULD MOVE OUT OF HARM'S WAY. I PURCHASED THIS VEHICLE, BRAND NEW, IN APRIL 2016. I DIDN'T HAVE PROBLEMS WITH IT UNTIL IT WAS 2 YEARS OLD. FOR THE FIRST YEAR, I EVEN COMMUTED TO WORK 3 HOURS DAILY. NOW, I AM AFRAID TO DRIVE IT 3 MILES.

DRIVING MY DAUGHTER TO SCHOOL THIS MORNING, SLOWED FROM 25 MPH FOR UPCOMING STOP SIGN. LOST ALL POWER AND STEERING. ALL ELECTRICAL COMPONENTS IN THE VEHICLE WERE BLANK. SEEMED A BIT DIFFICULT TO STOP BUT NOT SURE IF THAT WAS A BRAKE ISSUE. STORED VEHICLE. PUT IT IN PARK.

I WAS DRIVING 65 MPH IN A MIDDLE LANE ON THE FREEWAY WHEN MY ENGINE SUDDENLY STALLED OUT. I LOST THE ABILITY TO STEER OR BRAKE, AND MY VEHICLE QUICKLY LOST SPEED. I BARELY MANAGED TO GET TO THE SIDE OF THE FREEWAY BEFORE IT COMPLETELY STOPPED. I CALLED MY HUSBAND TO COME GET ME, AND HE MANAGED TO RESTART IT AND DROVE IT HOME WHILE I FOLLOWED IN OUR TRUCK. ABOUT 5 MILES DOWN THE ROAD, THE ENGINE STALLED OUT ON HIM. WE TOOK IT TO THE DODGE DEALERSHIP, AND THE MECHANIC WHO TOOK IT FOR A TEST DRIVE FREAKED OUT WHEN THE PROBLEM HAPPENED TO HIM WITH MY HUSBAND IN THE PASSENGER SEAT. HOWEVER, THEY FOUND NOTHING WRONG WITH THE VEHICLE AND REFUSE REPLACE ANY OF THE RECALLED PARTS FROM 2016 DODGE JOURNEY'S RELATING TO THE ENGINE STALLING OUT BECAUSE THEY INSIST MY CAR WAS MANUFACTURED A COUPLES...

WIFE WAS BACKING OUT OF DRIVEWAY AND ENGINE STOPPED / STALLED AS SHE ENTERED THE ROAD AND STARTED TO TURN WHILE BACKING. RADIO AND ELECTRICAL SYSTEMS WERE WORKING. HAD TO PUSH STARTER BUTTON TO OFF SO I COULD START IT AGAIN. ATTEMPTING TO START IT ALREADY IN THE RUN POSITION FAILED WITH AN ERROR I DON'T REMEMBER AND DID NOT WRITE IT DOWN AT THE TIME AS SHE WOKE ME UP TO TELL ME WHAT HAPPENED AND I WENT OUT TO DRIVEWAY AND CHECK. UNKNOWN REASON WHY AND HAVE NOT CONTACTED DEALER YET. REPORTING THIS HERE AS IT MAY SEEM TO BE A TREND AFTER DOING A GOOGLE SEARCH. HAS NOT HAPPENED BEFORE WITH THIS VEHICLE.
