2016 DODGE JOURNEY Complaints

I WAS DRIVING DOWN I5 (HIGHWAY) GOING 70 MILES PER HOUR AND MY HEADREST AIR BAG WENT OFF WITH NO WARNING. CAUSING ME TO ALMOST LOSE CONTROL OF MY CAR. LUCKILY I DID NOT HIT ANYONE, OR WRECK MY CAR. THERE WAS NO REASON FOR MY HEADREST AIR BAG TO GO OFF. *TR

WE WERE DRIVING THE CAR WHEN STEERING SUDDENLY BECAME ALMOST IMPOSSIBLE. IT WAS FRIGHTENING AND DANGEROUS. WE WERE FINALLY ABLE TO MUSCLE THE CAR TO THE SIDE OF THE ROAD, DODGING TRAFFIC ALL THE WAY, AND STOP. WE TOOK IT TO THE SHOP AND WERE INFORMED THE RACK AND PINION STEERING HAD GONE OUT. WE TOOK THE CAR TO THE SHOP AND THE MECHANIC TOLD US WHAT HAD HAPPENED. THE REPAIR WORK WAS VERY EXPENSIVE BUT WHAT WAS SHOCKING WAS TO FIND OUT THAT THIS HAS BEEN AN ONGOING PROBLEM WITH THE JOURNEY WHICH DODGE HAS ELECTED TO IGNORE. BELOW IS A LINK TO ONE SITE WHICH REPORTS THIS. THIS IS IRRESPONSIBLE. HTTPS://WWW.CARPROBLEMZOO.COM/DODGE/JOURNEY/STEERING-RACK-AND-PINION-PROBLEMS.PHP *TR

CAR VIBRATE WHEN ON THE FREEWAY, I WAS TOLD MY MOTOR MOUNTS WHICH WERE REPLACE 2018. *TR

WHILE DRIVING THE DRIVER'S SEAT BELT KEEPS COMING OFF. THE A/C KEEPS TURNING ON RANDOMLY WHEN I TURN IT OFF. *TR

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. LANDMARK DODGE KEEPS "FIXING IT" BUT IT CONTINUES TO CUT OFF WHILE I DRIVE AND TRANSPORT MY CHILDREN AND I IN IT.
