I have been reading about my issue all too often online and have yet to see any resolution at all. i have a 2012 dodge journey and honestly it is scary driving it! the car actually shuts off in the middle of the road without warning. the issue it keeps showing is a crank sensor code. the sensor has been replaced 3 times now! it is also not an easy job since on an all wheel drive model, there are many hours involved to replace it. but if you're on the highway and driving normally the car will die at any moments notice and give no warning. seems like there are many many others having the same issue. if you do a quick search and type dodge journey dies while driving you will easily find many people with same issue. many people spending their hard earned money on repairs that get them nowhere! this really is sad and dodge has done nothing to help except continue to put peoples lives at risk and taking their money for repairs! please help! i have been having ...
Car stalled on highway as we were driving and cut out. very dangerous..wouldn't restart..then started up 20 mins later and drove fine.engine light came on..dealer says it a crankshaft sensor..super dangerous.
Passenger side of vehicle had no heat just cool air coming out of vents. drivers side had heat coming out of vents. vehicle was taken to an independent facility to have cooling system and heater core flushed. was told by independent shop if problem comes back to take vehicle to dealer and have heater core replaced. after about 2 months problem came back. took to dealer and found same problem, a clogged heater core. they reaced heater core in december of 2018, all was good till november of 2019. no heat on passenger side of vehicle. took back to dealer and they flushed heater core. december of 2019 once again no heat on passenger side of vehicle. they reflushed heater core and told us if problem comes back to have radiator replaced and cooling system flushed. this is turning into a major safety problem due to the window keep fogging up in my wifes car making it impossible for her to see clearly and safely while driving. we have spent more than $2000.00 in repairs and now they want $700.00+ and said there is no guarantee it will work.

Anti-lock brake system (abs) control module. there's was a recall for our 2012 dodge journey which the previous owners took care of in oct 2015 (the month and year of recall). we purchased in 2017. a few time the abs light has come on but only for a minute or 2 since we bought it. today 8/2/2019 it came on along with the brake light and (no traction light (the swiveling car image light). we have had a lot of heavy rain. we where told by servicing station by diagnostic test it was the abs control module system malfunction. and if we did not get fixed our brakes could lock up and system freeze up. this is definitely a safety issue that was corrected in past but is now happening again. these lights came on just as we stared to drive. when the car was resting for 30 minutes and i was leaving to drive to service station the break pedal was extremely hard to push down ( break needs to be pressed with touch button start). i almost couldn't start car. the break finally softened and i was able to ...
Yesterday, while waiting at a stop sign my 2012 journey shut off. i had no idea it had even shut off! i pressed the gas to go and the car wouldn't move. i was a little baffled because the radio was still playing. i put the car in park and pressed the ignition and the car started again. this is latest and most unsafe issue that i have experienced with this car. the radio randomly changes stations and it doesn't shut off when the car is shut off. i have to turn the radio off before i turn the car off because it will continue to play. this started about 8 months ago. the car was turned off and the drivers door was opened, but the radio kept playing. if i forget to turn it off before the ignition, i have to restart the car and let the radio play for a min or so before i can turn it off. also, the rear air suddenly comes on. when i turn it off it comes back on. if it's synced with the front air, it will randomly go to the high setting. the journey also does a jerking motion while ...
Tl* the contact owns a 2012 dodge journey. the contact stated that the vehicle hesitated while driving. the accelerator pedal traveled to the floorboard and the vehicle decelerated. there were no warning indicators illuminated. the vehicle was taken to antwerpen dodge ram (5717 baltimore national pike, catonsville, md 21228, (410) 744-7400) where it was diagnosed that the catalytic converter needed to be replaced. the vehicle was repaired, but the failure recurred. the vehicle was currently making a loud abnormal humming sound. the manufacturer was not made aware of the failure. the failure mileage was 86,269. the vin was invalid.
On multiple occasions over the past two or three months, my vehicle loses all power, and at same time the power steering goes out and brakes have to pushed extra hard to get them to work. this has happened when driving under 40 mph in town. it has happened most often within the first 5 minutes of starting the car, but today it happened after i had been driving 30 minutes on the highway and then in town for several minutes. it has happened when slowing down, when accelerating, or when going stable speed, as well as before a turn, after a turn, or while going straight. i have been able to pull over to side of road and stop, put car in park, and restart it. we took the car to a local car repair shop twice, and they could find nothing wrong after hooking it to their computer. the car has 87,756 miles on it. i am concerned that this is unsafe, and i'm worried it could happen at a dangerous intersection or at highway speeds.
On multiple occasions my vehicle will loose all power. if i'm going over 45 it usually restarts itself. if under 40 the steering locks up, all electrical shuts down and i cannot get hazard lights or pull over. i can throw it into neutral and hit the push-to-start and it restarts. sometimes, like at stoplights, i have had to throw it into park then restart it. there have been a few instances of it not restarting no matter what we try. through trial and error we got it to start again after serious rocking. i have noticed it happens more if the usb port or aux port are being used, although it has happened a couple of times without those being touched. has only been happening since the majority of the functions with my on-board entertainment unit went out. dealership can not diagnose, say they cannot get the problem to duplicate. i have videos of this happening but dealership has not been interested in seeing them.
The 4 cylinder engine on my 2012 dodge journey developed an engine coolant leak. trouble shooting found the leak to be related to deterioration of a plastic part inside the engine...dodge part# 68003582...adapter c. the car was standing when the problem was diagnosed. if i had not had the part replaced a catastrophic engine coolant leak could have occurred while the car was being driven, leading to a full loss of coolant, overheating of the engine and seizing of the engine. i talked with dodge customer service and they acknowledged awareness of the problem.the car has 89,000 miles. i consider this to be a serious safety problem.

Heater core has to be replaced! i have no heat coming out of the passenger side vents! will cost over$1300.00
Takata recall it is to my understanding that this type of vehicle shouldn't have no issue with the engine at 98000, driving at 40 mph the engine stop working and now we have to buy a new transmition... how is this possible... this is unaceptable.
