I NOTICED THAT MY LIGHTS WERE DIMMING AS I AM DRIVING REGULARLY SO. WHILE WATING ON THE NEW ALTERNATOR TO COME IN SO THAT I CAN BE GET THIS PROBLEM FIXED SINCE APRIL 2017. THE ALTERNATOR DRAINED MY BATTERY. DODGE WOULD NOT REPLACE THE BATTERY SO I WENT AND PURCHASED ON A FEW DAYS LATER WHILE THE CHARGER SAT FOR 3 DAYS WITH NO POWER. ONCE I PUT THE NEW BATTERY IN THE EVERYTHING CAME BACK ON SO I TOOK THE CAR OUT FOR A DRIVE AND IN JUST UNDER 5 MIN SMOKE WAS COMING FROM MY HOOD. PULLED OVER TO AN AUTO PARTS STORE TO GET SOME HELP AND THE ALTERNATOR STARTS SPARKING AND ONCE I WAS ABLE TO PULL THE BATTERY OUT FOR IT TO STOP PULLING POWER THE PEOPLE AT THE PARTS STORE TOLD ME THAT THIS CAR IS UNSAFE TO DRIVE AND I AGREE. I SENT IT BACK TO THE DEALERSHIP AND I HAVE IT BACK NOW BUT I'M AFRAID TO DRIVE THIS THING WITH MY GIRL AND OUR KIDS CAN YOU HELP. I JUST GOT OUT OF THE MILITARY AND I'M DRIVING A CAR THAT I FEEL IS UNSAFE WITH 6 RECALLS TWO OF THEM BEING THE ALTERNATOR.

RIMS ARE CORRODING FROM UNDER THE CLEAR FINISH. THIS IS HAPPENING AROUND THE CENTER CAPS.

GEAR SHIFTER FROZEN IN PARK, RELEASE BUTTON DID NOT WORK HAD TO HAVE CAR TOWED ON FLAT BED AIR BAG LIGHT STILL ON EVEN AFTER AIR BAG RECALL

THE HEATER CORE IN MY 2009 DODGE JOURNEY HAS BEEN AN ISSUE FOR THE LAST 4 YEARS. IT HAS BEEN BEEN REPLACED IN 2014, FLUSHED IN 2015, FLUSHED IN 2016 AND NOW NEEDS REPLACE AGAIN. THIS IS 1300.00 TO REPLACE THE CORE. THIS IS DEFINITELY A DESIGN FLAW AND SHOULD BE REPLACED BY DODGE AT NO COST TO ME. THIS IS AN ONGOING ISSUE WITH THIS YEAR. I CAN NOT AFFORD TO PUT OUT THAT KIND OF MONEY EVERY YEAR. THIS NEEDS LOOKED INTO. THE PASSENGER SIDE HAD SOME HEAT BUT NOW HAS NONE. I ALWAYS SEEMS TO BREAKDOWN WHEN IT IS COMING INTO THE COLD SEASON. IT IS NOT FAIR THAT THE CONSUMER SHOULD HAVE TO CONTINUE TO PAY FOR DODGE'S DESIGN FLAW. ALSO, THE BRAKES AND ROTORS ARE ANOTHER ONGOING ISSUE, THEY HAVE BEEN REPLACED NUMEROUS TIMES AT MY COST. THIS IS ANOTHER ONGOING ISSUE WITH THIS PARTICULAR CAR. ALL OF THE WORK THAT HAS BEEN COMPLETED ON MY CAR ARE ON MY CARFAX.

MY TRUCK CAUGHT ON FIRE IN ENGINE AREA , ENGULFED BACK TO THE BOX WHOLE TRUCK DESTROYED! INSPECTOR NOT KNOW WHAT CAUSED FIRE. TRUCK WAS TOTALED. STATIONARY FOR TWO HOURS AT WORK.

THE INDICATOR LAMP AIR BAG IS ON CONTINUOUSLY. I DRIVE A VEHICLE ALL THE TIME, AND MY TRIP 50% HIGHWAY AND 50% CITY.
