ELECTRICAL SYSTEM, ENGINE, EXTERIOR LIGHTING
ONE OF THE BIGGEST PROBLEM IS THE BACK DOORS NOT LOCKING WHEN IN DRIVE LIKE THEY USE TO. MY SONS DOOR DIDN'T LOCK LIKE NORMAL (INSIDE DOOR CHILD LOCK WAS LOCKED TOO) BUT WORSE OF ALL MY CAR DIDN'T EVEN SHOW THAT THE DOOR WAS OPEN IN THE BACK AND I DIDN'T HEAR HIM FALL OUT AND IT OPEN AND HE FELL OUT WHILE DRIVING, MY CHECK ENGINE HAS BEEN ON AND MY OUTSIDE TEMP ON CAR DASH READS 185 ALL THE TIME, IT LOSES POWER WHILE DRIVING, THE RADIO ALSO TURNS VOLUME UP AND DOWN AND CHANNELS CHANGES BY ITSELF. MY WIPES BACK AND FRONT SOMETIMES GO AND DON'T TURN OFF. MY RIGHT FENDER IS NO LONGER ON THE CAR BECAUSE WHEN I GOT A FLAT AAA LIFTED THE CAR FROM THE UNDER CARRIAGE AND THE FENDER JUST CAME OFF ON ONE SIDE LIKE BOLTS WEREN'T EVEN PLACE ON THERE I BOUGHT THIS CAR FOR SAFETY FOR MYSELF AND KIDS AND THIS CAR IS NOT SAFE AND DODGE WON'T HELP AND I'M VERY UPSIDE DOWN ON IT, IM A RECENTLY DIVORCED MOM WAITING FOR DISABILITY FOR MY BACK. I CAN'T AFFORD TO TRADE IT WITH MORE MONEY DOWN. I PAID A DOWN 6500 AND PAY 400. PER MONTH AND NEVER THOUGHT I WOULD HAVE TO WORRY THAT MY KID WOULD FALL OUT WHILE CHILD LOCK WAS ON AND WHEN THE DOORS SHOULD LOCK, . NOW THIS NEW RECALL WITH THE ENGINE MAKES ME WORRIED TO DRIVE MY THREE KIDS TO SCHOOL OR ANYWHERE FOR THAT MATTER.

ELECTRICAL SYSTEM, UNKNOWN OR OTHER
MY PROBLEMS FIRST STARTED WITH MY HORN AND ALARM RANDOMLY GOING OFF. THEN I GO OUT TO MY CAR AFTER WORK AND THE DOORS ARE UNLOCKED, AND THE FRONT WINDOWS ARE ROLLED DOWN. I DON'T CARRY THE REMOTE/FOB ON ME, SO THAT'S NOT THE CAUSE. I HAVE HAD AT LEAST 2 SEPARATE TIMES NOW WHERE THE CAR HAS REMOTE STARTED ITSELF, WHILE THE KEYS WERE ON THE COUNTER AT MY HOUSE. THE FIRST TIME MY CAR WAS IN THE GARAGE, WITH THE DOOR CLOSED, WHEN I HEARD IT RUNNING. LUCKILY I WAS ABLE TO CATCH IT AND TURN IT OFF, BEFORE ANY CARBON MONOXIDE GOT IN THE HOUSE TO DO DAMAGE. NOW I PARK THE CAR IN THE DRIVEWAY, BECAUSE WE DON'T WANT IT IN THE GARAGE IF THIS WERE TO HAPPEN AT NIGHT. MY NEIGHBOR TEXTED ME THE OTHER NIGHT TO TELL ME MY CAR WAS RUNNING IN THE DRIVEWAY. MY WIFE, SON, AND I WERE ALL UPSTAIRS AND THE KEYS WERE DOWNSTAIRS. I CONSIDER THIS A VERY SERIOUS AND DANGEROUS PROBLEM. CARBON MONOXIDE CAN KILL.

STRUCTURE:BODY, ENGINE, POWER TRAIN
ON OCTOBER 2, 2015 WE PURCHASED A NEW 2015 DODGE JOURNEY THAT WAS UNDER A RECALL THAT WE WERE NOT INFORMED ABOUT FROM CARL GREGORY DODGE CHRYSLER JEEP IN ALBANY, GEORGIA. THE ENGINE BEAUTY COVER MAY DETACH FROM THE ENGINE AND COME IN CONTACT WITH THE CATALYTIC CONVERTER. SAFETY RISK: IF THE ENGINE BEAUTY COVER REMAINS IN CONTACT WITH THE CATALYTIC CONVERTER, UNDERHOOD SMOKE AND/OR A FIRE MAY OCCUR WITHOUT WARNING. REMEDY: THE ENGINE BEAUTY COVER MUST BE MODIFIED AND A MOUNTING SYSTEM MUST BE INSTALLED. RECALL STATUS: RECALL INCOMPLETE. REMEDY NOT YET AVAILABLE. WHEN I CALLED THE DEALER AT 2:15 PM ON OCTOBER 12, 2015 TO SEE WHY WE WERE SOLD A VEHICLE UNDER RECALL, THE SERVICE MANAGER TOLD ME "I DON'T KNOW WHAT YOU WANT ME TO SAY, IT'S NOTHING TO LOSE SLEEP OVER." IN A CONDESCENDING TONE. HE DID NOT KNOW HOW LONG IT'D BE BEFORE THE DEALER WOULD SEND OUT NOTICES OR HOW LONG BEFORE THE REPAIR COULD BE MADE.

ELECTRICAL SYSTEM
WHEN USING HIGH BEAMS/BRIGHT LIGHTS, ALL GAUGES, INDICATER LIGHTS AND BACK LIGHTS ON THE CONTROL PANEL GO CRAZY. BACK LIGHTS FADE IN AND OUT. ALL INDICATER LIGHTS BLINK ON AND OFF. ALL GAUGES (GAS, RPM, SPEEDOMETER, TEMPERATURE) GO ALL THE WAY UP AND DOWN SEVERAL TIMES. THIS HAS HAPPENED TWICE; ONCE UNEXPECTEDLY WHILE DRIVING, THEN AGAIN WHILE SITTING IN MY DRIVEWAY WHILE I "TESTED" AND SHOWED MY HUSBAND WHAT HAPPENED.

SERVICE BRAKES
I WAS DRIVING TO EXIT THE HOSPITAL WHEN FOR THE 4TH TIME SINCE I'VE HAD THE DODGE THE BREAKS WENT COMPLETELY OUT THEN LOCKED UP A LOUD NOISE WAS HEARD AND THE BACK TIRES LOCKED UP WITH THE BREAKS. I'VE CHANGED THEM 4 TIMES IN THE 6 MONTHS I'VE HAD THE CAR, THEY GET FIXED AND 2 WEEKS LATER THE BREAKS ARE BAD AGAIN. IT'S VERY DANGEROUS IF I WERE ON THE HIGHWAY IT WOULD HAVE CAUSED A ACCIDENT. THIS CAR WAS POORLY MADE ESPECIALLY THE BREAKS.
