THIS IS A RENTAL CAR, THEREFORE NOT POSITIVE IF IT'S A 2015 MODEL. WHILE DRIVING ON THE EXPRESSWAY, I SHIFTED IN MY SEAT AND MY FOOT ACCIDENTALLY TOUCHED THE HOOD RELEASE. THE HOOD OPENED WHILE DRIVING, ALTHOUGH NOT COMPLETELY SINCE IT HAS A SECONDARY HOOD LATCH RELEASE. THE HOOD WAS BOUNCING UNTIL I COULD SAFELY PULL OVER AT THE NEXT EXIT.

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.

FUEL/PROPULSION SYSTEM, ELECTRICAL SYSTEM
THIS IS THE THIRD TIME IN 3 MONTHS... THE CHECK ENGINE LIGHT TURNS ON, GOES OFF, THEN THE FUEL CAP LIGHT COMES ON. THE FIRST TIME WE WERE TOLD IT WAS A SENSOR AND THERE WAS A MINOR VAPOR LEAK DETECTED SO DODGE REPLACED THE SENSOR. THE SECOND TIME IT HAPPENED, THERE WAS A MAJOR VAPOR LEAK DETECTED SO THEY REPLACED THE GAS CAP. THIS IS THE THIRD TIME AND ARE WAITING TO SEE WHAT IS CAUSING IT NOW. ALSO, YET ANOTHER ISSUE OCCURRED IN WHICH THE AIR BAG LIGHT CAME ON AND THE AIR CONDITIONING FAN WOULD NOT BLOW, SUPPOSEDLY THAT SITUATION RESOLVED ITSELF ALTHOUGH THIS WAS WITNESSED BY THE SERVICE DEPARTMENT AT THE DEALERSHIP BECAUSE THEY COULD NOT RECREATE IT. FINALLY, WE PURCHASED A 4 CYLINDER AND LIVE IN A CLIMATE THAT GETS UP OVER 115 DEGREES. WHEN ACCELERATING, THE A/C BLOWS WARM. THE SERVICE DEPARTMENT HAS STATED THAT THIS IS A KNOWN ISSUE WITH THE 4 CYLINDER DODGE JOURNEYS.
