DODGE Complaints

The right side of my cars heating does not work. There is only 1 vent (the driver left vent closest to the window) that actually blows luke warm air, but all the other vents blow ice cold air. This happens with the heater turn all the way up.

Rear tail light accumulates water causing a portion of the LED lights to burn out.

The driver side headrest has snapped from its plastic hinges inside that keep the front cushion part attached the the back plastic cover. It happened while I was driving with my children in the vehicle and could have caused an accident!

unknown ,check engine light came on the screen blacked out and began to stall out on freeway doing 55 . was afraid of getting rearended.

The driver rear sliding door locking mechanism failed in the locked position preventing the door from functioning. The passenger front door lock actuator has failed preventing normal functioning of the door lock causing the car to remain unlocked after pressing the door lock buttons as well as preventing the door from unlocking if the door lock was manually locked. The van is available upon request for inspection and has not been repaired due to high cost and repair time necessary. We’ve also been unable to find replacement parts locally. Malfunctioning of the locking mechanisms puts passengers of the vehicle at risk if there was to be an emergency or accident and the door is unable to be opened. We are concerned about experiencing further issues with locking mechanism failures in the unaffected doors. We have not had the issue inspected by the dealer as our vehicle is outside of the warranty period. There are no warning lights or indicators for this problem.

Rear view camera intermittently displays a fuzzy or upside down screen that limits my ability to view what is behind the vehicle, increasing the risk of a crash. Note, I received recall notice 22S06/NHTSA Recall 22V082 for anther vehicle with the same problem so I'm not sure why there wasn't a recall on the Dodge Journey.

Water in tail lights. (Race track lighting) Yes, water in race track burns out rear lights causing a hazard for vehicles following not able to notice the vehicle in front. Replaced multiple times. Same outcome. (Water leakage) lights burnt out. It’s been inspected by dealership and ASC certified mechanics. No warning when the race track lights go out. Only way to notice is when you start to see water build up in the race track lighting.

The contact owns a 2017 Dodge Journey. The contact stated while driving 65 MPH, the oil warning light illuminated, and the vehicle stalled. The vehicle was not drivable. The contact towed the vehicle to her residence the next day. The vehicle was then towed to a collision shop where the mechanic retrieved several fault codes. The vehicle was not repaired. The contact towed the vehicle to an independent mechanic and was informed that the engine needed to be replaced. The vehicle was not repaired. The vehicle was towed back to her residence. The contact called the local dealer and made them aware of the failure. The vehicle was not repaired. The contact also stated that the front passenger’s side headrest had deployed independently. The manufacturer had not been informed of the failure. The failure mileage was approximately 122,000.

When driving the car will go into limp mode with no warning. When the car shuts off I have no control of steering wheel and brakes. Thus cam shaft was replaced but the issue now persists. Now the engine is stalling and caused the steering hose to bust and head gasket is blown.

When placed into park the car does not register it's in park and therefore does not want to shut off. It can take up to 15 minutes to get it off. Seems dangerous since it keeps running and it starts to rev the engine.
