THE PROBLEM I ENCOUNTERED WAS THAT THE STEERING WHEEL SHAKES VIOLENTLY IF BRAKES ARE PRESSED AT 60 MPH. THE MECHANICS AT CARMAX, MACHINED THE ROTORS AND REPLACED THE BRAKE PADS WHICH SEEMED TO FIX THE PROBLEM. ROUGHLY 3.5 TO 4 MONTHS LATER, I HAD THE SAME PROBLEM. THIS TIME, THE MECHANICS AT CARMAX REPLACED THE ROTORS AND THE FRONT BRAKES. THE VEHICLE WAS ONCE AGAIN PLACED INTO SERVICE LAST WEDNESDAY ON DECEMBER 18, 2013. ONCE AGAIN, THE ROTORS WERE MACHINED AND THE BRAKES REPLACED. I PURCHASED THE VEHICLE O JANUARY 17, 2013 WITH THE STARTING MILEAGE OF 34,904. I HAVE PUT ROUGHLY 10,000 MILES ON THE VEHICLE. WHEN I TOOK THE VEHICLE IN FOR THE THIRD TIME, I DECIDED TO LOOK ON THE INTERNET HOPING THAT MIGHT HELP. HOWEVER, I FOUND HUNDREDS OF PEOPLE WITH THE SAME VEHICLE THAT WERE HAVING THE SAME PROBLEM AS I WAS. I CONTACTED DODGE BUT THEY SAY THAT THIS IS A MAINTENANCE ISSUE. I BELIEVE THAT THIS IS A SAFETY ISSUE. I HAVE 4 CHILDREN AND GOD FORBID THAT THE BRAKE SYSTEM SUDDENLY DECIDED THAT IT DOESN'T WANT TO WORK! APPARENTLY, THERE IS A FLAW IN EITHER PARTS OR DESIGN THAT NEEDS TO BE ACKNOWLEDGED AND CORRECTED BY DODGE. *TR
2010
AIR BAGS
I BOUGHT A 2010 DODGE JOURNEY AND HAVE HAD MANY ISSUE. FIRST THE ALIGNMENT HAS ALWAYS GONE TOWARDS THE RIGHT AND HAS BEEN IN THE SHOP TWICE AND THEY SAID IT WAS FINE. I HAVE ALWAYS HAD PROBLEMS WITH THE NAV AND COMPUTER MUSIC SYSTEM. THE NEWEST AND WORST ISSUE IS IN LESS THAN 2 WEEKS HAS STOPPED WHILE I WAS DRIVING. I TOOK IT IN THE FIRST TIME AND THE SERVICE SAID THEY REBOOTED THE COMPUTER AND IT WAS FINE. FEW DAYS LATER I WAS GOING 40 DOWN THE ROAD AND THE CAR SHUT OFF AGAIN. BOTH TIMES THE CAR IS IN DRIVE AND THE KEY IS IN. IT IS NOW BACK IN THE SHOP AND I AM AFRAID THE AIRBAGS ARE NOT GOING TO WORK. I AM AFRAID THAT I WILL BE HIT AND INJURED. I HAVE 4 YEAR OLD TWIN BOYS. DODGE/CHRYSLER IS NOT HELPFUL AT ALL. I AM AFRAID TO DRIVE THE CAR. IT IS BACK IN THE SHOP AND FOR A CAR LESS THAN A YEAR OLD, I FEEL IT SHOULD WORK. I DON'T KNOW WHAT TO DO. *TR
