TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2015 DODGE JOURNEY. WHILE THE VEHICLE WAS UNOCCUPIED, THE FRONT PASSENGER SIDE HEAD REST AIR BAG DEPLOYED.

WHILE TURNING THE VEHICLE THE CAR COMPLETELY STOPS HAVING POWER. CAR STALLS OUT BUT STILL SHOWS VEHICLE IS RUNNING, AIR STILL WORKS ETC. NO WARNING LIGHTS ON THE DASH AT ALL. . AFTER TURNING THE VEHICLE OFF AND PUTTING THE VEHICLE BACK IN PARK VEHICLE STARTS RIGHT BACK UP. STILL NO WARNINGS OR A CHECK ENGINE LIGHT. NO OTHER MECHANICAL ISSUES WITH VEHICLE.

WHILE DRIVING THE AIR CONDITIONING AUTOMATICALLY COMES ON. I WAS DRIVING TO WORK ON A RESIDENTIAL STREET, DECIDED TO OPEN THE WINDOW EVEN THOUGH IT WAS 8:30AM AND IT WAS ALREADY 95 DEGREES OUTSIDE HERE IN VEGAS. DIDN'T GET OUT OF MY COMPLEX BEFORE THE AIR CONDITIONER CAME ON BY ITSELF. ALSO WITH THE AIR CONDITIONER ON, MY CAR SEEMS TO RUN HIGHER IN IDLE AND WHILE DRIVING IT SEEMS TO DOUBLE STEP WHEN BRAKING AND COMING TO A STOP. IT DOES LIKE A SMALL JERK IN ACCELERATION COMING TO A STOP.

TAPPING NOISE UNDER HOOD. TOOK TO 3 DIFFERENT MECHANICS AND EACH ONE TOLD ME THIS IS A DEFAULT WITH THE MANUFACTURER. HAD OIL CHANGE DONE AND TAPPUNG NOISE STILL CONTINUES. THE MECHANICS STATED THAT THE NOSIE IS COMING FROM THE TOP AND COST BETWEEN $600-$3500 TO HAVE REPAIRED. THIS HAPPENS ALL THE TOME WHEN VEHICLE IS RUNNING OR IDLE.

PRECISELY ON 7.3.19 I HAD 4 OF MY CHILDREN WITH ME HEADING TO A HOLIDAY PARADE. MY CAR W/O WARNING COMPLETELY STOPPED IN THE MIDDLE OF A ROAD. NO POWER, NO BRAKES, NO STEERING. AIR WAS STILL BLOWING; RADIO STILL PLAYING. MY DAUGHTER AND I PUSHED MY CAR TO THE CURB, MY HUSBAND CAME AND PUSHED MY CAR FURTHER TO AVOID AN ACCIDENT. AFTER SEVERAL ATTEMPTS THE CAR RESTARTED AND RESTARTED FINE. DROVE ANOTHER .5 CITY BLOCK; STOPPED AT A STOP SIGN, PULLED OUT AND MY CAR DIED AGAIN IN THE MIDDLE OF THE INTERSECTION. MY HUSBAND WAS STILL BEHIND ME & PUSHED US OUT. WE DROVE HOME. HE LOOKED UNDER THE HOOD, NOTHING STOOD OUT. I DIDN'T GET ANY WARNINGS ON THE DASH. THE CAR HAS DRIVEN FINE UNTIL 7.5.19. MY DAUGHTER AND I JUST TURNED ONTO CALUMET AVE; A VERY BUSY AND DANGEROUS ROAD AND MY CAR DIED AGAIN. SEVERAL CARS FLYING AROUND US LAYING ON THEIR HORN. I DO NOT HAVE POWER TO TURN, TO BRAKE. MY DAUGHTER AND I GOT OUT AND PUSH MY CAR INTO A PARKING LOT THAT HAS A SLIGHT UPHILL ENTRANCE. IT WAS NOT EASY, IT WAS DARK OUTSIDE. A VERY DANGEROUS SITUATION. I CAN ONLY FLIP MY HAZARD LIGHTS ON, WELL WHAT DOES THAT DO WHEN A CAR IS FLYING UP BEHIND ME AT 40-50MPH? I AM TERRIFIED MY CAR IS GOING TO DIE AND MY FAMILY AND I ARE GOING TO GET SERIOUSLY HURT AND/OR KILLED. READING ON THE INTERNET THERE SEEMS TO BE MANY PEOPLE WITH THE SAME ISSUE AND DODGE IS NOT RESPONDING. I HAVE CHILDREN WHO REQUIRE TRIPS TO INDIANAPOLIS FOR MEDICAL ISSUES AND IT IS A 3-4 HOUR DRIVE FOR US. SPEED LIMIT IS 70. I CANNOT AFFORD TO TRADE THIS IN AND PURCHASE A NEW CAR. I DO NOT WHERE ELSE TO GO FOR HELP. IF YOU CALL A MECHANIC OR THE DEALERSHIP THEY TELL YOU THAT CAN'T HELP WITHOUT LOOKING AT IT. DODGE DEALER DENIES EVER HEARING OF IT BEFORE WHICH I DON'T BELIEVE. NEITHER OF COURSE WILL DO A FREE INSPECTION. I GET IT THEY'RE THERE TO MAKE MONEY. RECALL SHOULD BE ISSUED TO FIX THIS BEFORE IT BECOMES DEADLY.

AIR CONDITIONING COMES ON BY ITSELF WHEN DRIVING. RADIO VOLUME DECREASE WITHOUT TOUCHING IT WHILE DRIVING. CRUISE CONTROL DOES NOT WORK WHEN DRIVING.
