2010 DODGE JOURNEY Complaints

THE HORN BLOWS BY ITSELF, WHILE DRIVING AND WHILE SITTING IN THE GARAGE UNOCCUPIED. IT HAS SHUT OFF WHILE DRIVING IN HEAVY TRAFFIC AND I HAD TO PUT IT IN NEUTRAL TO RESTART IT. THE AUR BAG LIGHT HAS COME ON AND APPARENTLY IN THE WORDS OF MY MECHANIC "I CAN'T FIND ANYTHING WRONG WITH IT". THE AIR AND HEAT STOPPED WORKING IN THE BACK OF THE VEHICLE LAST YEAR. THE CHECK ENGINE LIGHT GOES ON AND OFF. I'VE HAD IT TOWED TO THE SHOP TWICE BECAUSE IT WOULD NOT START, JUST TO BE TOLD IT CRANKED RIGHT UP ONCE AT THE SHOP AND AGAIN "I CAN'T FIND ANYTHING WRONG WITH IT". IT DOESN'T ACCELERATE LIKE IT'S SUPPOSED TO WHEN TAKING OFF, JERKS AND LAGS, AND ONCE ACCELERATED IT CONTINUES TO JERK AND LAG.

THE REAR ARMS ON THE TIRE WHEELS BENT IN CAUSING THE TIRES TO GO COMPLETELY WORE DOWN ON THE INSIDES. IT WAS HARD TO SEE BECAUSE THE MIDDLE AND OUTSIDE WERE FINE. IT COST $457.00 TO REPAIR THE GARAGE SAID THIS WAS COMMON. I HAVE THEREPAIR RECORDS I DON'T KNOW HOE TO SEND ONLINE . IF THE TIRES HAD BLOWN IT COULD HAVE BEEN REALLY BAD AS I DRIVE 80 MILES ROUND TRIP A DAY TO WORK. HAVE'NT FIXED BRAKES YET BUT THE ROTORS ARE SHAKING WHEN I HIT THE BRAKES

HORN RANDOMLY HONKS (WHILE IN MOTION AND WHILE PARKED TURNED OFF), DOORS LOCK/UNLOCK RANDOMLY (WHILE PARKED) AND THE HEADLIGHTS AND FLASHERS GO ON AND OFF (WHILE PARKED). I PULLED THE FUSE FROM THE HORN SO THAT IT DOESN'T HONK WHILE DRIVING DOWN THE ROAD OR BEING PARKED IN MY GARAGE OVERNIGHT. RECENTLY I HAVE REPLACED THE ALTERNATOR AND BATTERY AND THE VEHICLE WILL NOT START IN THE MORNING AFTER SITTING ALL NIGHT LONG. I DRIVE THE VEHICLE TO WORK PARK IT AND WHEN I GET READY TO LEAVE THE OFFICE FOR THE DAY THE VEHICLE IS DEAD ONCE AGAIN. SOMETHING IS DRAINING THE BATTERY...WE HAVE NOTHING PLUGGED INTO ANY OUTLETS OR CIGARETTE LIGHTERS INSIDE THE VEHICLE. EVEN DOUBLE CHECKED THAT ALL INTERIOR LIGHTS ARE OFF.
