AFTER GETTING OFF FROM A LONG DAY AT WORK. LEAVING THE PARKING LOT ON THE SECOND FLOOR FROM WORK I WAS COMING DOWN THE RAMP WHEN I LOST COMPLETE CONTROL OF THE VEHICLE. THE VEHICLE COMPLETELY SHUT DOWN ON ME LEAVING ME TO FLOOR THE BREAK TO STOP THE VEHICLE ALMOST CAUSING ME TO CRASH INTO THE CURB. ALL SERVICE LIGHTS COME UP ON DASH BOARD WINDSHIELD WIPERS STARTED GOING ON AND THE CAR COMPLETELY SHUT OFF WORST THING IS AFTER DOING RESEARCH ABOUT MY VEHICLE IS THAT IT'S BEEN A COMMON PROBLEM WITH ALL CHRYSLER,JEEP,DODGE VEHICLES. REPAIRS FOR THIS IS ABOUT 1,200$ SOMETHING CUSTOMERS ARE SUBJECT TO PAY DUE TO NOT BEING COVERED UNDER WARRANTY. CHRYSLER NEEDS TO ADDRESS THIS ISSUE FOR THEIR CUSTOMERS SAFETY!!!! *TR

ON MY WAY HOME FROM WORK, TRAVELING 55 MPH, AND I PUT MY RIGHT TURN SIGNAL ON, AND HIT THE BRAKES TO SLOW DOWN. I TAPPED THEM AS I WAS QUITE A DISTANCE BEFORE MY TURN AND IT WAS DARK. I DID NOT "SLAM ON THE BRAKES", I JUST PRESSED THEM. MY DASH LIGHTS LIT UP WITH ESP/BAS. I SPOKE WITH FRIENDS WHO SAID IT WAS A TRACTION CONTROL PROBLEM. I DID TURN THE CAR OFF, ONCE I WAS HOME, AND TURN IT BACK ON - ON THE OFF CHANCE THE LIGHT WOULD SHUT OFF, BUT IT DIDN'T. IN READING ON LINE, IN DODGE FORUMS, THIS SEEMS LIKE A FAIRLY COMMON PROBLEM ONCE THE 2010 JOURNEY HITS ON OR ABOUT 50K MILES. I'M CONCERNED. *TR

VEHICLE HAS FAILED TO START MULTIPLE TIMES. STARTED OCCURRING AROUND 20,000 MILES. TURN THE KEY AND ONLY HEAR A CLICK. SOMETIMES AFTER WAITING A FEW HOURS THE VEHICLE STARTS. HAVE REPLACED THE VEHICLE BATTERY BUT THAT DIDN'T MAKE A DIFFERENCE. TYPICALLY, AFTER MOVING/WIGGLING THE SHIFTER AND RETURNING TO PARK, THE CAR STARTS. THIS NO LONGER WORKS. TRIED LOCKING/UNLOCKING DOORS WITH MULTIPLE KEY FOBS, TRIED USING A DIFFERENT KEY IN THE IGNITION BUT CAR WILL NO LONGER START. CURRENT MILEAGE AROUND 58,000. *TR
