2015 DODGE JOURNEY Complaints

P0339 CRANK SHAFT POSITION SENSOR INTERMITTED MY ENGINE COMPLETELY LOST POWER. THIS IS VERY DANGEROUS. THIS IS A RECALL ON THIS CRANK SHAFT ON 2012-2016 MODELS FOR DODGE JOURNEY. I WAS DRIVING ON A RESIDENTIAL STREET GOING 35 MPH AND MY CAR STALLED AND THE ENGINE LOST COMPLETE POWER.

THE HEADREST EXPLODED WHILE THE VEHICLE WAS IN MOTION AND WITHOUT THE VEHICLE BEING IMPACTED BY ANOTHER CAR.

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2015 DODGE JOURNEY. THE CONTACT STATED THAT WHILE DRIVING AND AN UNDISCLOSED SPEED, THE VEHICLE STALLED WITH SEVERAL UNKNOWN WARNING LIGHTS ILLUMINATED. THE VEHICLE WAS RESTARTED HOWEVER, THE FAILURE RECURRED. THE VEHICLE WAS DIAGNOSED BY THE CONTACT'S SON, AN INDEPENDENT MECHANIC. THE CONTACT WAS INFORMED THAT THE CAMSHAFT SENSOR NEEDED TO BE REPLACED. THE VEHICLE WAS REPAIRED. NEITHER THE DEALER NOR THE MANUFACTURER WERE NOTIFIED OF THE FAILURE. THE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS APPROXIMATELY 80,000.

DRIVING DOWN THE INTERSTATE MY JOURNEY JUST 'SHUT DOWN.' ONCE GETTING IT TO A SHOP THEY INFORMED ME THAT THE ENGINE WAS PROBABLY THE CAUSE. THE VEHICLE IS AT 119,323 MILES AND DROPPED A CYLINDER RESULTING IN HAVING TO REPLACE THE ENTIRE ENGINE.

THE PASSENGER HEADREST IS DEPLOYED OR SPRUNG OUT. THE PLASTIC HOLDING THE METAL PIN IS BROKEN. IT HAPPENED WHEN THE CAR WAS PARKED. *TR

MY VEHICLE HAS ABOUT 124,000 MILES ON IT. OUT OF THE BLUE ONE DAY IT STARTED SPUTTERING. I FIGURED IT NEEDED A TUNE UP SO I TOOK IT IN AND THEY TOLD ME I NEEDED TO TAKE IT TO THE DEALER. IT HAS TO DO WITH THE SIXTH CYLINDER MISFIRING. I TOOK IT IN MARCH AND THEY HAVE HAD THE CAR EVER SINCE. THEY HAVE NO PARTS TO FIX IT AND TOLD ME THAT IT IS A COMMON PROBLEM WITH THAT VEHICLE AFTER 100,000 MILES. THEY HAVE CONTACTED CHRYSLER TO MAKE THE PARTS FOR IT. *TR

I WAS DRIVING STRAIGHT DOWN THE HIGHWAY, APPROXIMATELY 40-45MPH, WHEN I HEARD A LOUD NOISE IN MY CAR (BANG) THEN FELT THE FRONT LEFT (DRIVER'S) HEADREST HIT THE BACK OF MY HEAD. UPON FURTHER OBSERVATION, I REALIZED THAT THE HEADREST HAD DEPLOYED ON ME. I WAS NOT HIT NOR WAS ANYTHING TOUCHING THE HEADREST. I CALLED THE DEALERSHIP AND WAS QUOTED OVER $400 TO REPLACE THIS SAFETY FEATURE IN MY CAR. *TR

MY PASSENGER SIDE HEADREST DEPLOYED AFTER CROSSING A BRIDGE ON THE INTERSTATE 81 ON MY WAY HOME FROM WORK. I DO HAVE PICTURES OF THE HEADREST BUT THIS SITE ISN'T ALLOWING ME TO UPLOAD THE PICTURE. *TR

WHILE DRIVING STRAIGHT TO WORK LAST NIGHT,I HEARD A LOUD POP. THE POP WAS ALMOST AS LOUD AS A GUN GOING OFF BESIDE MY FACE. IT SCARED ME,BECAUSE I WAS UNSURE WHAT HAD JUST OCCURRED. I LOOKED OVER AND NOTICED MY HEADREST ON PASSENGER SIDE HAD POPPED IN HALF AND UNABLE TO BE PUSHED BACK INTO PLACE. LUCKILY,MY OLDEST CHILD OR HUSBAND WASN'T WITH ME,OR IT WOULD PROBABLY WOULD HAVE CAUSED AN INJURY,OR AT LEAST SOME SORENESS. I'M NOT SURE IF THIS IS A RECALL,BUT SEEMS LIKE IT SHOULD BE,ESPECIALLY IF NOTHING TRIGGERED IT. PLEASE ENSURE THIS ISSUE GETS SORTED OUT. THANK YOU FOR YOUR TIME. *TR

STOPPED AT RED LIGHT AND WHEN I STEP ON THE GAS PEDDLE CHECK ENGINE LIGHT CAME ON AND THE CAR STALLED, THE DASHBOARD, RADIO AND A/C WERE STILL ON. ATTEMPTED TO TURN ON CAR AND IT SHAKE TO TRY TO TURN OFF BUT WOULDN'T. TOOK IT TO CARMAX AND CAR WOULD NOT RECOGNIZED CAR KEY TO TURN ON. CARMAX THOUGHT IT WAS THE BATTERY AND IT WASN'T THAT. THEY SAID IT WAS THE FUEL PUMP, HAD IT REPLACED BUT CAR WOULD START AND IT TURN OFF LESS THEN 5MIN. CARMAX SUGGESTED TAKING TO DODGE DEALERSHIP FOR ENGINE TARE DOWN TO FIND OUT WHAT IS WRONG WITH IT. ESTIMATE OF COST TO REPAIR IS $3200-5300. CAR IS AT 77K-78K MILES ON IT. FROM WHAT I READ THIS IS WHERE THE CAR STARTS TO STALL UPON REACHING AMOUNT OF MILES ON IT. *TR
