Drove to a restaurant, sitting there with car fully on and running and it began to idle down and shake before shutting off. Diagnosis code is saying 6th cylinder of the engine. I haven't had any problems before this happened.

The tachometer and speedometer became inoperable but independently reset and worked as designed. The battery warning light was illuminated. The vehicle was taken to several independent mechanics where the battery was replaced. The contact called baxter Chrysler Dodge Jeep Ram la vista located at (7010 S 124th cir, la vista, ne 68128 (402) 800-1229) however, the vehicle was not diagnosed nor repaired. The manufacturer was not contacted. The failure mileage was 150,000.

My vehicle has shut off without warning three times in the last month. All three times were at low speeds while pulling into a driveway. I then put it in park, pressed my ignition button to off, then pushed the ignition button with my foot on the brake and it started all three times on the first attempt. When it shut off, I lost power steering all three times, so thankfully I was at low speed. I do currently have code P0016 when I scan it with my reader. I had a local mechanic change 1 of my camshaft position sensors because that is what autozone recommended. That didn't solve anything. Then I made an appointment at Dodge of bloomington, mn to have a lugnut repaired and my check engine light further diagnosed. They replaced the lugnut but told me they didn't have time left in the day to look at light, and said no rental vehicles were available, which is odd considering the 500 vehicles in their lot. So I made an appointment at coon rapids Chrysler and they dug around for three hours, told me they couldn't find anything but charged me $500. Again no rentals here either. How far do we dig, I have 297,000 miles but other than this recent issue, vehicle has been good. Happy to include anything extra you would like. I did have coon rapids Chrysler replace a camshaft in spring of 2019 when engine was ticking. That solved the ticking. I did notice my tick is back to about 75% of the sound it was in the spring after my November 29th attempted diagnosis at coon rapids. Typing on my phone, so I apologize for a few missed capitalizations. First shutoff was November 15th, recent one was December 15th and then one in between.

The radio will randomly turn stations and just completely go black. The A/C turns itself on and off. The airbag lights keep randomly coming up and then go away.this all happens rather I'm driving fast, slow, or stopped at a light and has happened since purchasing the car a year ago. I'm also having an issue with the check engine light coming on with it being the P0420. I only use mid grade gas and only from exxon or chevron. I also make sure the gas cap is on tightly. The check engine light will be on one day and not the next.

In the past two years I have had multiple electrical problems. The A/C turns on all on its own. The radio changes channels on its own but most important this morning 23 Oct 2019 my 2014 Dodge Journey completely shutdown while I was making a right hand turn. Luckily I was able to get off the road safely.

Our 2014 Dodge Journey's engine is consuming oil with no warning. With no warning light/alarm or puddles of oil on the ground, I had to add over 3 quarts of oil to the engine. Due to this, the engine has failed beyond repair. This was presented in the manner of harsh clanking and banging within the engine while driving down the freeway. After having it towed to a local shop, it was found that metal shards were contained within the oil filter. The vehicle now doesn't run correctly even when not in motion.

I bought my vehicle in 2017. Before a year of owning it I got into a wreck because my cruise control wouldnt turn off and instead started accelerating more. Then I started having issues with my catalytic converter took it to the dealership and they said there was no way. Shortly after the rest of my systems started to go along with it now it's been about 6 months and I have a vehicle that can no longer move or so anything. Once my catalytic converter went out it started clogging the rest of my system. As of September 2019 my engine is now completely gone because of all the back up not being processed by my catcon

Car shuts off at speed has light on on dash not sure what it

- Amarillo, TX, USA

My cruise control quit working and the traction control light came on and it wouldn't turn off. The doors started locking and unlocking by themselves. I went to church and stopped at food city afterwards. I started the vehicle and put it in reverse and I can smell something weird and it was like the brake was stuck and it was holding back. I proceeded because I was in traffic and needed to move. Acceleration was limited but I made it home which was less than a mile. When stopped there was smoke rolling out from under the front passenger side area and there was fluids running all over the ground. This was a very dangerous situation because I had my children in the car. There is a scrubbing and pecking noise but it sounds like it's coming from the rear end. I have had nothing but problems with this vehicle. Check engine light is on but it's been on. I've had it checked and shows nothing wrong and had it turned off and it continues to come on. Alternator has been replaced as well as new battery. It seems to have electrical issues with the doors locking and unlocking. So dangerous! affects steering and control of vehicle and could cause a fire and not be able to get out of the vehicle. After seeing all of the reviews and problems with these vehicles they all need to be recalled because none of them are safe because it's obvious that the dealerships don't even know how to fix them. If they attempt one issue there are even more issues that occur. The repairs are costly and this is happening way too often with too many Journeys. Then we are stuck with a lemon to pay for and no vehicle because of these costly repairs along with the dangers imposed. Please recall these dangerous and repair costly vehicles! they don't need to be on the roads. Problems started not long after purchase but they have escalated and have gotten more serious, dangerous, and costly.

On approximately 6-8 different occasions in the last 3 years, my 2014 Dodge Journey has shut itself off while I've been driving it. The first 3 times I was driving straight & after the 3rd time, the dealer replaced the crank shaft sensor but it continued to happen. There seemed to be nothing to note when it would happen, until recently, it shut off on 2 occasions when I went over a bump & going in a forward motion in both cases. The first time I was going 55mph, the 2nd 25mph so not sure the speed had anything to do with it. Brought it back to dealer & they did an engine control module update. This was one week ago and it happened again today. I was again in a forward motion, actually just started accelerating from a red light, so was probably not going more than 35-40mph when it happened. I felt like this is an issue your organization needed to know about on many levels but the largest one for me is as a full-time mom. I have had my son in the car with me on almost every one of these occasions and to say it's terrifying would be an understatement. Everything on the car locks and I have about 3 seconds to try and guide my car out of traffic without getting hit. The car does restart once you put it in park and push the ignition button but I would not wish this fear on my worst enemy. Hope this helps in some way. Btw, today I immediately drove my car to my husband at work and he will be driving it back to the dealership today until they can hopefully fix it for good. Although at this point, if I never saw that car again, it'd be too soon.

I went into my church for about 2 hours and came back out and started the car to let it cool down for my kids. As it sat idling all of a sudden my check engine light is on, my etc light is flashing, and my ESC off light is on. Shut it off and turned it back on and the engine light was on. Started driving and the etc light started flashing and ESC off light came on. My car slowed down from 60mph on the highway and I couldn't speed back up. I had to pull over and turn car off and back on 3 times to make it back home. To make it home I had to put cruise control on and hope I didn't get behind someone going slower than me because all the lights would come back on.

Since owning the vehicle, bought brand new, every so often while driving the radio and all the lights would turn off and then come back on. Recently when driving my check engine light came on. At that point it was a Friday night my mechanic was already closed so when he opened back up on Tuesday I called to bring the car in and on my way there the car started making a horrible noise. While driving down a busy road I felt the acceleration give and I could not get it to accelerate so I started to make way off the highway when the engine just died. Had it towed to my mechanic where he cannot figure out why it died. There was no water, all the fluid levels were perfect. He was baffled as to how the engine could just die. He said he has never seen this happen for no reason. Finally found an engine to replace it a month later, but that engine has 96,000 miles on it.

Like others on this site, I experienced a check engine light indicating a misfire on cylinder 3. I had the vehicle repaired under warranty at champion Dodge in indianapolis, in. The shop stated they replaced the entire cylinder head due to a leaking valve. Upon retrieving the repaired vehicle, the same issue immediately arose. I took the vehicle back to the shop and the shop is now surmising they received a defective part. I find it hard to believe the same issue occurred twice within a day due to a defective replacement part. Either the shop did not replace the part, or Chrysler has a serious problem with their cylinder heads. This issue appears to be common, was recognized by Chrysler on the 2011-2013 models, but is now an issue with my 2014 model. I have contacted a customer care representative at Chrysler who made one attempt to call and is never available.

Engine light on: The issue is a design flaw in the head and cylinders of the 2014 V6 engine of the Dodge Journey 2014. The flaw allows burning fuel vapor to escape and cause burning and carbon around the cylinder head. The hazard here is the continued disintegration and carbon damage can cause the engine to lock up while driving.

Appears that the gasket between the engine and transmission is leaking oil. This vehicle is only 4 years old. I still owe alot of money on this vehicle and have changed the oil on a regular basis. Now this !!!! not right !!!!

There's a few recalls on my 2014 Dodge Journey AWD SXT that I've called and they said they don't have the parts and to call back in a few months. I just called now and they gave me the loop around transferring me to the front then back to service where I was placed on hold and then it rang to the front desks number and I had to leave a voicemail. Totally incompetent. This is at the Dodge dealership in Colorado springs.
