2019 DODGE JOURNEY Power Train Problems

Transmission failure at 43,226 miles, costing me $7,471.96. Replacement required. These are known to be a faulty transmission having recalls at this time up through 2016. Mine is not yet included but should be as they are the same unit. A failure like this is uncalled for.

Front cylinder head number two is misfiring. It is a known problem with this engine and older models have an extended warranty. My 2019 is not covered. It’s an expensive repair and seems like a problem.

CAR "CLUNKS" WHEN GOING FROM REVERSE TO DRIVE, SPORADICALLY. ALSO THE TRANSMISSION "SLIPS" OCCASIONALLY. I HAVE BROUGHT IT TO THE DEALERSHIP, CHANGED ALL ENGINE MOUNTS, NOVEMBER 2020. BROUGHT IT BACK A WEEK LATER WHEN I COULD GET AN APPOINTMENT, STILL DOING IT. THEY CLAIM I AM NOT "STOPPING FULLY" BEFORE GOING FROM REVERSE TO DRIVE, AND SAY THEY HAVE DONE ALL THEY COULD. SPOKE TO FRIEND WHO ALSO OWNS A DODGE JOURNEY. SHE HAS THE SAME PROBLEM. I FEEL THIS IS A SAFETY ISSUE SINCE IT IS OBVIOUSLY DAMAGING THE TRANSMISSION EACH TIME THIS HAPPENS, AND THAT IT IS NOT SLIPPING WHEN ACCELERATING AND CHANGING GEARS (AUTO TRANSMISSION).

TRANSMISSION SPORADICALLY CLUNKS FROM REVERSE TO DRIVE. DEALER REPLACED ALL MOTOR MOUNTS. STILL DOES IT.

TRANSMISSION BANG WHEN TAKING OF FROM A STOP

THE TRANSMISSION IS STALLING AT 25739 MILES. I BOUGHT IT IN APRIL OF 2020, 6 MONTHS AGO. WHEN ACCELERATED THE ENGINE STRUGGLES TO GET OVER 65 MILES AND REVS INCREDIBLY. THEN THE TACHOMETER SHOOTS UP AND DOWN GIVING ME UNSTABLE SPEEDS. THIS HAPPENED ON THE EXPRESSWAY CONTINUOUSLY. IT IS STILL UNDER WARRANTY AND I AM TAKING IT TO THE DODGE DEALERSHIP TOMORROW. THERE IS ALSO A SHAKE I FEEL AND VIBRATION.
