2014 DODGE JOURNEY Complaints

THE CATALYTIC CONVERTER HAS BEEN REPLACED 2 TIMES IN LESS THAN 7 MONTHS BECAUSE IT KEEPS BURNING UP. THERE NEEDS TO BE A RECALL ON THE 2014 DODGE JOURNEY BECAUSE THIS IS NOT A CHEAP FIX!!!

IN THE PAST TWO YEARS I HAVE HAD MULTIPLE ELECTRICAL PROBLEMS. THE A/C TURNS ON ALL ON ITS OWN. THE RADIO CHANGES CHANNELS ON ITS OWN BUT MOST IMPORTANT THIS MORNING 23 OCT 2019 MY 2014 DODGE JOURNEY COMPLETELY SHUTDOWN WHILE I WAS MAKING A RIGHT HAND TURN. LUCKILY I WAS ABLE TO GET OFF THE ROAD SAFELY.

I JUST BROUGHT A 2014 DODGE JOURNEY ON JULY OF 2018 AND I HAD TWO PROBLEMS WITH THE TRANSMISSION , FIRST PROBLEM IT WAS LEAKING THEN I GOT IT FIX LIKE 5 MONTHS AGO NOW THE TRANSMISSION HAS A BIGGER PROBLEM THAT IT HAVE TO REBUILD OR REPLACE WAITING FROM THE DECISION FROM THE MECHANIC WITH THE RESULTS OF WHAT TO DO , THE SHOP WHERE I TOOK THE VEHICLE SAY THAT I WASN'T THE FIRST PERSON THAT HAVE THE SAME PROBLEM WITH THE SAME VEHICLE AND I WAS THE FORTH PERSON WITH THE TRANSMISSION PROBLEM AND THAT HE IS SURPRISE THAT THEY ARE NO RECALL ON THE VEHICLE SO I AM VERY UPSET WITH THIS ISSUE AND I JUST WANT TO MAKE A COMPLAINT ABOUT IT

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2014 DODGE JOURNEY. WHILE DRIVING APPROXIMATELY 70 MPH, THE VEHICLE DECELERATED WITHOUT WARNING. THE VEHICLE WAS TAKEN TO AN INDEPENDENT MECHANIC WHO STATED THAT THE COMPUTER SYSTEM WAS FAILING. THE VEHICLE WAS TAKEN TO PAUL SHERRY CHRYSLER JEEP DODGE RAM (937-778-0830, LOCATED AT 8645 N COUNTY ROAD 25A, PIQUA, OH 45356) WHERE THE TECHNICIAN DIAGNOSED AND REPLACED THE THROTTLE BODY. IN ADDITION, THE ABS AND TRACTION CONTROL INDICATORS ILLUMINATED. THE VEHICLE WAS TAKEN BACK TO THE SAME DEALER WHERE IT WAS DIAGNOSED THAT THE WIRING HARNESS WAS CORRODED AND NEEDED TO BE REPLACED. THE MANUFACTURER WAS MADE AWARE OF THE FAILURE AND STATED THAT A RECALL REPAIR WAS PERFORMED IN 2018 PER NHTSA CAMPAIGN NUMBER: 15V675000 (ELECTRONIC STABILITY CONTROL, SERVICE BRAKES, HYDRAULIC). THE CONTACT WAS INFORMED THAT A PORTION OF THE WIRING HARNESS MAY BE REPAIRED FREE OF CHARGE. THE VEHICLE WAS NOT REPAIRED. THE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS APPROXIMATELY 120,000.

OUR 2014 DODGE JOURNEY'S ENGINE IS CONSUMING OIL WITH NO WARNING. WITH NO WARNING LIGHT/ALARM OR PUDDLES OF OIL ON THE GROUND, I HAD TO ADD OVER 3 QUARTS OF OIL TO THE ENGINE. DUE TO THIS, THE ENGINE HAS FAILED BEYOND REPAIR. THIS WAS PRESENTED IN THE MANNER OF HARSH CLANKING AND BANGING WITHIN THE ENGINE WHILE DRIVING DOWN THE FREEWAY. AFTER HAVING IT TOWED TO A LOCAL SHOP, IT WAS FOUND THAT METAL SHARDS WERE CONTAINED WITHIN THE OIL FILTER. THE VEHICLE NOW DOESN'T RUN CORRECTLY EVEN WHEN NOT IN MOTION.

A COUPLE OF DAYS AGO MY AIRBAG LIGHT HAS COME ON AT FIRST IT WOULD COME AND GO FOR SECONDS NOW WHEN I TURN ON MY CAR THE LIGHT STAYS ON. I HAVEN'T BEEN IN ANY ACCIDENTS. AND HAVEN'T BEEN IT.

I BOUGHT MY VEHICLE IN 2017. BEFORE A YEAR OF OWNING IT I GOT INTO A WRECK BECAUSE MY CRUISE CONTROL WOULDNT TURN OFF AND INSTEAD STARTED ACCELERATING MORE. THEN I STARTED HAVING ISSUES WITH MY CATALYTIC CONVERTER TOOK IT TO THE DEALERSHIP AND THEY SAID THERE WAS NO WAY. SHORTLY AFTER THE REST OF MY SYSTEMS STARTED TO GO ALONG WITH IT NOW IT'S BEEN ABOUT 6 MONTHS AND I HAVE A VEHICLE THAT CAN NO LONGER MOVE OR SO ANYTHING. ONCE MY CATALYTIC CONVERTER WENT OUT IT STARTED CLOGGING THE REST OF MY SYSTEM. AS OF SEPTEMBER 2019 MY ENGINE IS NOW COMPLETELY GONE BECAUSE OF ALL THE BACK UP NOT BEING PROCESSED BY MY CATCON
