    Unknown. This vehicle is great if it would stay running. I drive it about 15 min than it just shuts off and won't restart until it cools down . I've had it checked and replaced camshaft and crankshaft and the throttle potionsensor and it continues to shut off while driving. It's very irritating it could cause a accident and also leave someone stranded. No codes pop up anymore but it still has that problem

    Horn randomly blows while driving and while parked with engine off. Only solution is to remove fuses to disable horn. No way to blow horn now to alert other drivers of a dangerous situation.

    The vehicle is available for inspection upon request. I (and several other owners of a Dodge Journey vehicle) have noticed the horn sounding randomly. Myself and others with the same complaint believe it to be a faulty/failing Horn Contact Switch, located in the steering wheel. (I believe it is MOPAR part # 5189428AC ) The safety concern is that horn sounds randomly. When this happens while stopped at red lights, motorists in front of me tend to rapidly accelerate into cross traffic. I believe the safety concern is self explanatory. As it is a random occurrence, it has not been confirmed by a dealership. (Though there are countless videos posted to YouTube as well as complaints posted to message boards.) There are no warning lamps or indications that a connection is faulty/failing. According to my research, this has been an ongoing issue for Dodge Journey owners for several years.

    Horn honks randomly will driving or turned off/parked. Windows go up/down on their own. Locks/unlocks. wipers turn on/off. Emergency flashers turn on/blink all on their own. Appears to be an issue with security system. Replaced TIPM and still having issues with all of the above. My truck is dead every day, replaced battery twice & crack shaft sensor, still having issues. There is a ticking noise and sounds like my truck is trying to turn itself on without the key in the ignition. Airbag light will not go off. This vehicle is 13 years old and Dodge needs to do a recall for all the issues people are reporting.

    I bought this used from Rainbow Motor Sales. Ever since I have had trouble with the heating system. I have replaced the heater core. I have had this flushed also. Last winter only the driver side had heat. So far this fall it will blow nothing but cold air.

    Car constantly does not start. I have had to have it towed multiple times after driving places because it just decides to not start. The starter cranks but does not start. Then out of the blue it starts again and will start every day for weeks and then not start again. This started happening this past year and now this past two months got worse where it won't turn back on at all for days on end. I had to take it to a mechanic the second I was lucky enough it decided to start. New starter and new battery did not fix. Mechanic believes computer is bad. It is a security issue. Registering my car as incorrect vin number to car.

    Horn randomly sounds which has nearly caused accidents. The only way to stop it is to remove fuses. This is a common issue with the horn pad wearing.
