The 2013 Dodge Journey's VIN number is: 3C4pdcab9dt2241. The national highway traffic safety admistration has stated to me that the recall for the engines's cover recall has passed the 60 day grace period. To ensure satisfactory recall performance and rectification I would like for this vehicle to be brought back because of the recall and a horrendous smell that started in 2014 and continues today. The smell so terrible contributed to coughing, allergies, sneezing and itching from myself and other passengers. The smell as since been diagnosed again and August of 2015. I have not picked up this vehicle from darcars of new carrollton because of the recall and the smell that has yet been fixed. This vehicle has been in and out of the shop at least 17 times, including 4 times for brakes, 4 or more times for a scheeching sound and 3 to 4 times for the smell that has cost molding/mildow. I have contacted the following organizations along with the case number. 1. Dodge case management- case#: 27627943, Office Of Defects Investigation:case#: 10775926, mopar vehicle protection plan: Case #: 38205462 and Mr. Brian E. frosh office, Maryland attorney general's office - case #: MU258042. Henceforth, I have spoken to management at the dealership as well as Dodge case management abut my total disability. I have since been placed on total disability in which my orthopedic doctor as stated my stress level and the wear and tear on my knees can not take on any more driving. I have had 4 orthoscopic knee surgeries, sprain ankle and carpal tunnel that make my pain level each day unbearable. It is now that I say to you that I would like for this vehicle to be brought back because of the defects and the recalls that has yet been fixed. The 60 day law applies to this vehicle. I look forward to a speedy approval as to buying back this vehicle. I have documentation to support this claim.

Turned car on and feels like the engine is stuttering need to make trip to dealer. Suspension noise coming from the front. Truck has been taken to the dealer numerous times on the suspension issue. The first time they said they lubed the bushings and every other time they say there is nothing wrong with it. This truck is a safety hazard for my family.

I could not set the cruise control without hitting the steering wheel. Once I got the cruise control set to 75 mph I could not get it to turn off. I hit the brakes 5 times before it would decelerate. Once the cruise control turned off there was a sudden hard shift on the engine and a loud knocking sound.
