Vehicle will stall without warning for no apparent reason at any speed. On Oct 3, 2014 I was taking my child to school when the car stalled in an intersection. After the light turned green I proceeded to the intersection and stalled upon entering the intersection. I was able to put the car in neutral and restart within ~10 seconds. This issue repeated itself at least twice while en route from my home to a nearby service shop (foltz auto) which determined there was no issue the battery or ignition. On 10/5/14 I took the vehicle to heritage Chrysler (21234) and had the car serviced for two reasons: The main reason was the above issue and a secondary issue was the main odometer (not the trip odometer) at some point had reset itself leaving a display of an incorrect mileage much lower than the actual mileage. The dealer could not recreate the stalling issue or offer any solution, but noted that another electrical issue was causing the odometer to display an incorrect mileage; the fix was to replace the instrument cluster assembly. After having the instrument cluster replaced, the issue did not reoccur until 12/26/2014, when the car stalled three times without warning at ~40 mph, leaving the car completely "dead" each time, and once causing the car to veer quickly towards another car as I was in the process of turning the wheel around a slight curve when the car locked up. The car restarted in neutral and continued on in each incident until I was able to safely reach my home - I did not further drive the car. My concern is that the manufacturer knows, or show know, of multiple issues where this model and model year vehicle has randomly stalled without warning and can not offer a solution to the problem. Consumers are left to guess which repairs to undertake at significant expense, while driving a car that could continue to have the same issues.

I'm writing to complain that my 2009 Dodge Journey has been issued a recall for the ignition switch.the vehicle will shut down completely. Despite the fact this represents a significant safety hazard and this recall was initiated almost 7 months ago, Chrysler still does not have the necessary parts to make the repair. I have contacted them on a number of occasions and they have no solution or can offer an alternative to driving this dangerous vehicle. We don't have the option to stop using the Journey. What responsibility does Chrysler have to make these ignition parts available in expeditious manner? I would assume there must be a time limit to make these recall repairs. Every day I drive the Journey is like driving a bomb-you never know when it will go off.

Tried to start car just clicks won't turn over. Lights, radio everything turns on. This has happened several times. Sometimes if you wait it will start, sometimes if you move the gear shifter around it will start. Sometimes my battery light comes on then turns off after starting again. Same for my other indicator lights. Also my back seat doors will lock from the outside and you cant get them to unlock with the buttons or the key fob. Only by climbing in the backseat to unlock them. Starting problems seem worse after car sits for longer period or during colder weather. This is a very common problem with these vehicles.

I have complained several times about these issues with this stupid car, and its crazy that im still paying for it!!! the car was purchased brand spanking new and I've been having the same [xxx] issues since day one. When I put the key fob in the starter switch the car goes dead. The only way the freaking car will start is by try to put the car in neutral. If that doesn't work then I move the battery around until I hear a click for a connection. If these don't work I disconnect the negative and positive on the battery. Eventually the car will start after spending an hour or so trying to get it started. Im disabled and truly have an extremely hard time with this car. This entire car should be recalled!!! the other issue is that the alarm doesn't work. Once the alarm goes off, the key fob will not open the car and will not turn the alarm off. Also the "key within the fob" doesn't open the car door when the alarm is on. All I can ask is that you help all of us who are having these crazy issues!!! do something [xxx]!!! information redacted pursuant to the Freedom Of Information Act (FOIA), 5 U.S.C. 552(B)(6).

The car stopped as I was driving. I was able to coast to the side of the road to wait for a tow. Also, twice now the vehicle has not started, had to be towed once the other time it was at home. If I wait several hours the car will start again. When I call the dealership they said they are not aware of any issues and the car would have to be doing it when it is there for them to figure it out. When I call Chrysler, the lady said that they are not aware of any issues with car. I told her when I went online that the computer was blowing up with people with the exact same issue.

Rotors and brakes went out at 36,000 and had to be replaced due to being too small for the vehicle. Of course this was just out side of warranty. Recall was called after we replaced them. Went out again at 45,000 and again at 85,000. I had a knocking noise from under neath and took it in and it was covered under power train. Had to take it in again at 40,000 knocking noise again and luckily it covered under power train. At 45,000 my Journey wouldn't start and just didn't know when it would start 30 minutes to an hour. This has happened several times and was told it was the key ignition control and that they are back logged and couldn't replace it but charged $100 for diagnostic again and have had to take it in again since. At 75,000 I was left stranded due to over heating and had to take it in again and it was the temperature control sensor. Brakes went out again at 95,000 and now at 107,00 the check engine light is on and did a diagnostic and it's the throttle runner control is stuck open and unable to get it in until a week later due to the dealer to busy. I think this has gone on to long with these Dodge Journeys and it's time for some recalls on them. I will never but a Dodge again!

Car all of a sudden shuts off while driving down the street at various speeds.35-70 steering wheel locks, you have very little control. Very very dangerous has been hooked up to certified auto shop diagnostic computer all codes come back fine and they can not tell me why this happens. I already replaced crankshaft sensor to test if that was what was wrong with it. I am not going to go thru all these fixes for testing. Dodge needs to do a recall on this problem. I called Dodge direct to start a recall process. Something needs to be done before a fatality happens!

- Fort Wayne, IN, USA

While driving on the freeway @ about 70 mph suddenly the steering locked up and there was no power. While I was trying to merge over to the side of the freeway( I had to cross 3 lane, I was almost hit by multiple cars. I had no control of the car. I managed to get off to the side off the freeway and happened to look down to see the ignition key turned to the off position. I dont have any other keys attached to it because I had just had the starter replaced maybe 1 week before & was advised not to. I started the car thinking maybe it was a freak thing and it wouldnt happen again. It did 2 days later. This time I was approaching an intersection turning left on a green arrow. Just as I started to turn the car turned off making it very difficult to turn and barely missed a group of people on the sidewalk where my car ended up before stopping. I had the car towed to the service center the dealership I bought the car from. This was not a Dodge, Chrysler, or Jeep dealership either. I was told that rwi module had to be replaced and it was not covered under my warranty and Dodge would not cover it either. While the car was being repaired I came across recall L25. But was told my VIN number was not included in the recall. The car was in the repair shop for 5 days. It cost me over $600. The day I picked the car up I came across documentation of the expansion to the L25. I was then again told the VIN was not part of the recall & an investigation was being done and eventually the VIN would be in the recall but I could not be given a date as to when this would happen. I called Dodge corporate offices and was told the same thing. I feel like I own a coffin on wheels.. all in all I have had this car in for repair for the key turning to the off position 3 times now. Something needs to be done now before someone is seriously hurt or killed in a crash because of this defective part.
