Abs, brake, and traction light coming on coded c2200-49 told there was a recall and when I called the dealership they said it wasn't for my vehicle but they couldn't even order the part because they're having to replace them on so many and they are not in stock anywhere until after April 15th. If this has been an issue with other vehicles and is currently an issue with mine why is it not under the recall"?" 2012 Dodge Journey sxt

The ABS light was on in the car. Took to a repair shop and they replaced the ABS Module. Said it fell under R61. But then my re-imbursment was declined because they said my vin did not have the problem. But putting in a new ABS module and reprogramming fixed the issue. How do I get refunded for the failure of a break system that should never have happened? Please call me 979.216.8043

As I was braking to enter the on-ramp of Hwy 1923 from Asheville, I noticed for the second time, my brakes were not slowing me down as usual, instead, they acted as if they were slowly grabbing. As I speed up to the correct speed limit, It seemed as though my brakes started to grab again without me depressing the brake pedal. The vehicle made a throbbing, and vibrating sound. All this after just having taken the vehicle to my mechanic for the same problem two days prior. The back brakes were replaced, the front brakes looked fine, and everything was checked out. Two days later brakes started acting up again, not working normally and acting as if thay are grabbing and vibrating the vehicle! No warning lights were shown. Next step is the Dodge Dealer. Another very aggravating glitch that the Dodge Dealer said that didn see, is the fact that every time I park the vehicle, I have to turn the sterring wheel a certain way before the battery will shut off, if not the battery will be drained!

Electrical - the vehicle while driving just shut off. No power, no lights, the engine died. The vehicle was brought to a stop, placed in park and then restarted without issue. The ABS system - the brakes failed to work. While at a stop light, brakes depressed, the vehicle began rolling backwards.

This complaint concerns the failure of the front rubber brake lines on my 2012 Dodge Journey. I discovered that, during manufacture, the original brake lines were severely crushed while the retaining brackets were attached to them. This reduced the I.D. of the hoses to about 20% of their intended size. Over time, with normal hose deterioration, this restricted back flow of brake fluid to the master cylinder. As a result the brakes calipers did not retract completely which caused excessive overheating of the front brakes. This could have caused a fire or the vehicle to swerve into other traffic. My concern is other vehicles of similar age could begin experiencing the same issue. Please note the front left brake was malfunction before and after new rotors, pads and calipers were installed.

The blind spot is horrible. I have to check my mirrors 3 times because even if I look on my side, especially on the driver-??s side whenever I have to switch lanes, I can-??t see if there is a car on my blind spots. The mirrors don-??t help because it may appear that the car beside me is far but it may also be near. So that of the major issue with this car. Next, when the vehicle in front of me did a sudden stop and I hit my brakes too hard to stop, the car made a throttling sound then it stopped. When it was safe to go, it wouldn-??t go even though my gear is on Drive and I am pressing on the gas pedal. It just makes a rubbing noise as like it is on Park mode and you are hitting the gas pedal. So I had to shut my car off and turn it back on. Lastly, cruise control doesn-??t work very well. Sometimes it works, but most of the times I had to pull over and restart my car or hit the brakes and press the on/off switch for cruise control.

My safety was at risk and I put others at risk when my vehicle lost power in the middle of a busy highway and almost caused an accident with my 2 young children in the car. It would not accelerate and we got stuck in the middle of the rode. The ABS light came on when it happened. I took it to my local dealer to diagnose and was told there was water in the ABS module connector which caused the wires to corrode. Chrysler had a recall on this specific issue for my model but because my vehicle didn't come out of a specific batch, they won't cover it. This is a safety issue and if other vehicles of this make and model were recalled for this specific issue, they should fix mine. I have attached the R61 recall from Chrysler for this issue

While parking car and engaging "the parking brake, } the brake popped and a round silver looking item popped out from under the brake pedal and landed on the floor board. Trying to engage the parking brake became useless as the petal just stated engaged and when toughed it came up to the parking brake release place, if the petal was touched it would fall back to the engaged looking. When driving I did not notice any burning smell which told me that the emergency was not engaged even tough the brake light was on. At home I checked under the car and found that back and forth. The brake cable was loose and moveable. Looking at the round piece that fell off it appears to be where the cable was tethered to and this would be placed in the brake petal. The cable appears to have severed at the round piece(connector) making the emergency brake inoperable. There does not appear to be any rust but just severed

I have a 2012 Dodge Journey when it rains and I have to go through water on the roads my car will loose it's brakes, which is causing me to almost hit the person in front of me.

Please let me know what I should do. Thanks

Every 15K miles or so the right rear caliper sticks and destroys the pads and associated rotor. I have replaced that specific caliper and both rotors three twice already. After around 25K to 30K miles I can no longer get the caliper to unfreeze. The vehicle now has 93K miles on it and I am about to replace it again. Once the outside pad gets to less than 30% the wheel tries to lock up. Once while driving in the country my wife nearly caught the car on fire because of overheating brakes. This form only allows for one entry, but as stated this has happened a multitude of times. The worst being when the rotor was glowing red before it was noticed by another person at a gas station. That happened in 2015.

ABS, etc and brake lights came on the dash board after I parked on a slope and drove for couple of miles. Take it to the diagnostic technician and a failure is detected in the ABS module. I understand there was an alert regarding this, but I never received any notification. Could you advice me what to do in respect to this matter and if it was a recall since 2015 why I never received the letter.
