We get a lot of calls every day from consumers who are having problems with vehicles. The defects vary anywhere from trim falling off to more serious defects such as engine stalling and brakes and more.
From time to time we notice an increase in complaints about a particular make or model and recently it happened again.
The Dodge Journey's defects run most commonly across the 2009 and 2010 and 2011 model years with complaints about hesitation in the transmission, fuel problems, electrical problems, abnormal brake wear and many other defects have come to our attention.
For instance the 2010 ws recalled for leaking power steering fluid complaints. And the 2009 model year Journey had five recalls including two on the air bag system, two on the electrical system and one on the transmission. And a steering column defect resulted in a recall on the 2011 model year Dodge Journey.
And that's just the safety recalls and we are not even counting the secret warranties covered by factory technical service bulletins where Chrysler quietly tells their dealers about known problems and fixes that aren't covered by recalls.
