My dodge journey's engine shut off twice while i was driving with no warning. no loss of lights or radio, but the engine just shuts off and car cannot be restarted. the first time i was driving on a highway, and right after accelerating from a stop at a red light the car died. had to have it towed, and had an auto part store do some basic tests and was told it was just a bad battery, however when it happened again the day after replacing the battery. this time i was on a city street having just exited off of the interstate. i was in traffic and again the car just lost power due to the engine shutting down. again it would not start and could not be jump started so had it towed to the dealer. dealer was able to get a code p061c, and followed instructions to update the pcm. from what i understand, a software update was applied to the power control module. i am very concerned with the fact that my car can just shut down the engine with no warning at all. very dangerous.
Tl* the contact owns a 2013 dodge journey limited. the contact stated that while driving at various speeds there an abnormal ticking sound coming from the engine. there were no warning lights illuminated. the vehicle was taken to the jim riehl's friendly chrysler jeep 32899 van dyke ave, warren, mi 48093 (586) 979-8700 however, no diagnostic tests were preformed. the failure recurred. the contact scheduled an appointment for diagnostic test which was still pending. the contact mentioned nhtsa campaign number: 10139771 as a possible solution to the failure. the manufacturer was made aware of the failure. the failure mileage was approximately 135,000.
The engine has started to cut off when i decelerate, such as to make a turn or come to a stop. this is dangerous in mid-traffic, especially when my family is in the car. it has happened a few times and is becoming more frequent, as in the last time this happened was yesterday. i see that there are many other complaints from customers experiencing this with their dodge journeys and wondering why there isn't a recall for this incredibly dangerous occurrence.
My journey keeps stalling on me especially when stopped (red lights,stop signs, in traffic etc.) at one point it even stalled out on me while driving and i couldn't move the steering wheel, brakes, nothing! it completely locked up. i was lucky that that time i was in my neighborhood otherwise i would have gotten in a car accident. at first the fuel cap light kept coming on, dodge dealer told us to just have the cap replaced (we did) but the light keeps coming on and off still and not resolving any problems. then a red lightening bolt came on a couple times and that's when my car would shut off at a stop and try restarting on its own. now at the moment no lights are on and it's still stalling. and every time is stalls it's always in drive and will completely turn off. it has stalled in parked a few times also but majority of the time is when stopped in drive. this is very very dangerous. i have 3 kids who are always with me. i can't imagine if something happened because of this. i've done my research and noticed there are many many people having the same exact issue. dodge needs to recall the vehicle quickly before they run into a lawsuit.
Battery light came on diagnostic test was performed i was told to change the alternator which i did. an hour later the light came on again then i was told to replace the battery which i did. after an hour drive the light came on again i was told the battery sensor needed to be replaced. the next day the car died completely i had to get towed. i was told to get an alternator from mopar which i did. new battery another new alternator a new sensor now the check engine light is on.
My 2013 dodge journey has a random no start. it will just click. the battery, alternator, and starter are all good. i usually have to jump it to get it to start. sometimes that doesn't even work. it will make the lights start to go haywire. they will flicker or flash on and off. it will say no key detected when i'm literally sitting with my key fob in hand. it is a push button start. i have got the batteries replaced in the key fob as well. this will happen at random. it's happened in my driveway with a slight incline so we parked it on the curb where it was flat to see of maybe the incline of the driveway had anything to do with it, but it's done it on flat surfaces as well. i have tried to look up reasons why and have seen this as an issue with a lot of other journey owners. this started back in the spring and happens several times in a week then it will stop for almost a month and the cycle will start all over again.
Coolant leakage while vehicle was in motion causing the vehicle to overheat.
Misfire, loss of power, and stalling while in motion and while idling . had vehicle inspected. cylinder #2 has a misfire and the cylinder head needs replaced. i was informed that my year make and model was involved in an extended warrantly from chrysler to cover all vehicles fitted with the 3.6 liter motor for this exact same issue. however my particular vin isn't showing that it is covered even though i have the exact same motor, year make and model, and issues as the others. this is not fair that i am experience these issues but they refuse to fix it because my vin isn't on the list!!! this is very expensive to fix and is dangerous. i was driving on the highway and completely lost power, i was almost hit by another vehicle while i was trying to find a place to get off the road. this has happened on several occasions. the vehicle will stall when i am pulling out , which has left me stalling in the middle of the road on more than one occasion. this is my primary vehicle and i have no choice but to continue to drive it. this is a defect that has been recognized by chrysler group and yet they refuse to fix my vehicle. the extended warranty was to cover the pentastar v6 3.6 liter six-cylinder to 10 years or 150,000 miles which ever comes first.
Cylinder 2 misfire - engine lock suddenly as valve was not installed properly at time of manufacturing. this is a known defect in this make of dodge. my car is not included per the dealer and should be. the valve is faulty. causing burnt valve and warped head. *extremely costly repair that was unavoidable with recommended regular maintenance on my vehicle! dealer will not repair. manufacturer has not included my vin in recall.
I was driving my car through town(35mph) when it just shut off. i didn't have power steering or brakes. no alert lights come on. i managed to pull into a gas station, put it in park then it restarted after i pushed the button. i did chat with chrysler and they said no recalls or issues showed up for my car. after googling my experience, i found numerous other complaints from people having the same problem. if i had been going faster on the highway or even on our curvy backroads i could have been seriously injured or even killed! i drive my children in this car and i'm scared to death to get back in it. i'm still paying on nb this car and it's a deathtrap!

While driving on u.s. 84 highway in alabama i noticed the engine making a strange noise and pulled over to the side of the road. i could then see smoke coming from under the hood, when i opened the hood i could see at the base of the engine orange flames. used water bottles on hand to put out the fire. after my insurance company sent out inspectors it was found that wiring to the oxygen sensor had shorted out causing the fire. inspectors believe it was faulty wiring that caused the fire. contacted chrysler and they denied any responsibility.
