Last year on or about June 17, my transmission gave out completely on me while driving up hill on a 2way road. My vehicle is available for inspection, but the transmission has already been replaced with a used transmission. This event put my life and others at risk because my car completely stopped working on an incline with no indication it was going to give out. My father was actually imjured in his attempt to help me stop the car from rolling backwards. The day it happened I took my car to be assessed at our local Dodge dealership, and had it repaired by an independent contractor. As mentioned before there were no warning signs that it was going to fail. No signs of overheating and/or weird noises.

Unknown car just stopped working and turned off

- Fresno, CA, USA

After getting oil changed/air filter replaced and 4 new tires, vehicle has stalled out every day since while running (less than week) it is now stalling out while driving!! Happened while I was driving on the highway. EXTREMELY dangerous. Car usually will restart. But 95% of the time it continuously sounds like it-€™s trying to turn over until I push the ignition button to turn off. I am currently stuck on the side of the road for about a half hour because it won-€™t start back up. I have had this car less than a year!

Just before my warranty was up I got a check engine light and the car started running really rough almost like it was gonna die when I came to a stop. I called the dealership and they told me they would try to get me in at the next availability. With the end of my warranty closely approaching I told them this wasn-€™t an option. They finally got my car in after I made a few demanding phone calls to the right people and come to find out that somehow some hardware in my engine came loose and it was causing very abnormal wear on my lifters and so they -€œfixed-€ the problem. Fast forward a few months and now I-€™ve been having an annoying ticking noise coming from my engine. I tried using Seafoam, nada. I tried using Lucas High Mileage additive, no dice. So I took it to a trusted mechanic as it is now well outside my warranty and he told me -€œit-€™s your lifters-€ which I already had a feeling it would be just by listening to the sound as between and idle and acceleration. So being I have over 167k miles on it it-€™s not even worth fixing. Oh and just a side note, my mechanic also mentioned to me that he fixed 4 other Journeys that week which tells me that Dodge has a serious problem with these model cars that they will not address. Oh and just for the record, I have the garbage 3.6L Pentastar engine

While driving a short distance, 36 miles, the Dodge starts to overheat. It has been in service three times for this issue and no diagnosis has been made. Upon starting the car, it shakes and after a minute it subsides within minutes of starting the oil temp jumps to 231 degrees or higher. I have had to drive with the heat on high in order to bring the temperature down and even with it on the lowest temp is still 226 after 10/15 minutes. This issue has been ongoing since July 2020.

I found out about the recall after paying to have the catalytic converter replaced mysel! however my car decided to go into a limp mode which it has done since I purchased the vehicle in 2013 but this time it is staying in limp mode so I researched recalls, there is also T47 and U49 when I towed my vehicle to the dealer they informed me the converter I had put on does not meet standards and they were going to replace it again and also do the other two recalls as well and then they informed me they could not do the U49 or U67 because the vehicle does not have the original engine! they told me and gave me documentation that the only recall done was T47 however they reported to fca that the U67 was complete when in fact it has not been completed! the vehicle is stuck in limp mode because it needs the PCM flashed and they will not do the recall U67 or U49 on my vehicle and sent me away to drive the vehicle 89 miles home in limp mode! this vehicle had had a PCM issue since I bought it in 2013 causing a number of unsafe malfunctions I mentioned in complaint # 11337435 and 11337440! this vehicle needs to be taken off the road and a new vehicle given to me free of charge or money back! fca needs to know U67 has not been completed on my vehicle,

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.
