UNKNOWN OR OTHER
2013 DODGE JOURNEY WAS LEASED NEW, WITH KUMHO SOLUS KH16 TIRES FROM THE FACTORY. VEHICLE WERE INFLATED WITH NITROGEN AND VALVE STEMS CAPPED WITH SIGNIFYING GREEN CAPS. WINTER ENSUED AND NOTICED THAT PRESSURE WAS DECREASING IN ONE OF THE TIRES. UNABLE TO LOCATE A NITROGEN SERVICE, WAS FORCED TO INFLATE WITH AIR. AFTER ABOUT A WEEK, FOUND SAME TIRE TO STILL BE LOSING AIR; DUE TO THE CONTINUING SUB ZERO TEMPS, I FIGURED IT WAS NORMAL COLD WEATHER PRESSURE LOSS. STILL LOSING PRESSURE, REMOVED TIRE AND FOUND A LEAK IN THE TREAD, TIRE WAS PLUGGED, INFLATED, LEAK CHECKED AND PLACED BACK IN SERVICE. DURING THE 2014 AND 2015 WINTERS, ALL TIRES REQUIRED FREQUENT AIR SERVICE, BUT NEVER REQUIRED A PRESSURE REDUCTION. MAY 2015 THE ONE CULPRIT TIRE WAS REQUIRING WEEKLY AIR SERVICE AND BY JULY, THE TIRE WAS ROUTINELY FOUND FLAT IN THE MORNING. TOOK THE VEHICLE TO MY LOCAL TIRE SHOP AND THEY DISCOVERED THAT THE TIRE WAS NOT LEAKING FROM THE PATCH, BUT WAS HOWEVER LEAKING FORM THE INNER SIDEWALL WHERE THERE WAS A SIGNIFICANT BULGE AND BELT SEPARATION. THEY IMMEDIATELY TOOK THE TIRE OUT OF SERVICE AND INSPECTED THE OTHER THREE, THEY FOUND BULGES IN TWO OF THE OTHER TIRES SIDEWALL'S AND RECOMMENDED REPLACING ALL FOUR AT 20,000 MILES. THEY INDICATED THAT THEY HAD STOPPED CARRYING KUMHO'S BECAUSE OF THE QUALITY ISSUES. THIS IS A 60,000 MILE RATED TIRE WITH AN OBVIOUS ENGINEERING FLAW. IT NEEDS TO BE RECALLED IMMEDIATELY.

ELECTRICAL SYSTEM
VEHICLE RANDOMLY WILL NOT START. EVERYTHING (LIGHTS, AIR, RADIO) WORKS EXCEPT IT WILL NOT START, MAKES A CLICKING NOISE BUT WILL NOT TURN OVER. WE HAVE PAID DODGE OVER 300 DOLLARS TO HAVE THIS ISSUE FIXED BUT IT KEEPS REOCCURING. FIRST TIME WE HAD TO HAVE IT TOWED THEY SAID IT WAS A SOFTWARE ISSUE AND BAD BATTERY. WE PAID FOR THAT AND NOT EVEN A WEEK LATER I WAS STRANDED OUT OF TOWN AT NIGHT WITH MY CHILDREN. DODGE HAD IT TOWED THR NEXT MORNING AND COULD NOT IDENTIFY THE ISSUE. WE HAVE SINCE HAD TO HAVE IT TOWED 2 OTHER TIMES BACK TO DODGE AND THEY HAVE FIXED THE STARTER AND ON THE LAST OCCASION THEY SAID NOTHING WAS WRONG. ONCE WE HAD THE BATTERY JUMPED TO GET IT STARTED AND IT IS A BRAND NEW BATTERY, HOWEVER THAT DOESNT ALWAYS WORK. WE ARE STILL DEALING WITH THIS ISSUE. WE RECEIVED A RECALL NOTICE IN THE MAIL FOR BAD IGNITION AND KEY ISSUES IN MAY AND WE STILL HAVE NOT BEEN ABLE TO GET IT FIXED. WE WERE TOLD BY DODGE THAT WE WOULD BE PUT ON A WAITING LIST FOR PARTS AND IT COULD BE MONTHS AS THERE ARE A LOT OF PEOPLE WHO ARE HAVING THR SAME ISSUES AND NOT ENOUGH PARTS ARE AVAILABLE. PLEASE LOOK INTO THIS ISSUE. NO, I DIDN'T CRASH BUT IT IS A SAFETY ISSUE WHEN YOU ARE STRANDED FAR AWAY FROM HOME AND NOONE CAN HELP YOU. IT IS EXPENSIVE WHEN I END UP HAVING TO PAY 100'S OF DOLLARS I'M TOWING. IF YOU GOOGLE THE ISSUE THERE ARE MULTIPLE COMPLAINTS OF THE SAME ISSUE AND DODGE KEEPS SAYING TO EVERYONE THAT THEY CAN NOT IDENTIFY THE ISSUE.

ELECTRICAL SYSTEM, ENGINE, SERVICE BRAKES
IT HAS BEEN ABOUT A MONTH SINCE MY 2011 DODGE JOURNEY HAD BEGUN TO SHUT OFF WITHOUT WARNING WHILE I WAS DRIVING, AND WITH NYC TRAFFIC IN THE CITY IT BECAME DANGEROUS FOR ME TO DRIVE. I TOOK IT TO MY OWN MECHANIC WHO SAID IT COULD ONLY BE RESOLVED BY THE DEALERSHIP SINCE IT MAY BE AN ELECTRICAL ISSUE WITH THE CAR'S COMPUTER THAT ONLY THE SERVICE SHOP AT THE DEALERSHIP HAS THE TOOLS TO FIX. I AM NOT DRIVING FASTER THAN 30 MPH WHEN IT HAPPENS, I'M UNABLE TO BRAKE AND THE CAR SHUTS OFF AUTOMATICALLY. I HAVE BEGUN TO USE THE EMERGENCY BRAKE, BUT IF THERE IS A CAR THAT IS TOO CLOSE, IN FRONT OR BEHIND ME, I CAN GET INTO AN ACCIDENT. THANKFULLY, I HAVE ALWAYS BEEN BY THE SHOULDER ON THE HIGHWAY AND AM ABLE TO PULL OVER.
