'takata recall' every winter my Dodge Journeys 'service AWD, ABS light, and traction light' will come on when the sensor gets cold and wet. It shifts out of AWD completely. This has been an issue every single winter. It is recalled on 2012-2015 models but for some odd reason my 2015 model is not included in that recall. Very frustrating.

Key fob should not go out so soon. Car do not start. I changed battery. It will unlock and lock doors but do not start. I called Dodge 8004236343 and they told me that I can start it with the key but there is no where to put the key other than the door. Then they asked me to put the key fob to the push start on the opposite side of where I insert the emergency key and press to start and that did not work. They walked me through step by step and it still does not work. Plus my car shakes while driving.

ABS recall, my Dodge Journey fits the same description for an ABS recall, however my VIN number doesn't say that it is affected. I am outside of warranty so the dealership won't touch it. Displeased majorly!!

My car has 64,000 miles on it and the ABS light, traction light, brake light and check engine light came. I have an appointment on Friday to get it diagnosed. At 32,000 miles the check engine light came on upon starting and my car would not go over 30 miles per hour. A fuel injector sensor went out.

The contact owns a 2015 Dodge Journey. While driving 40 mph, the rear of the vehicle shifted to the left and the check engine, brake, and ABS warning indicators illuminated. The vehicle was taken to an independent mechanic where it was diagnosed that the anti-lock brake system and electronic stability control needed to be replaced. The vehicle was not repaired. The vehicle was later taken to five star Chrysler Dodge Jeep Ram macon (3068 riverside rd, macon, ga 31210, (478) 287-1907), but was not diagnosed or repaired. The manufacturer informed the contact that the VIN was not included in any recalls and referred the contact to NHTSA. The approximate failure mileage was 52,244.

On several occasions, my Journey has just shut down while in motion. This has happened to me and my husband. Lights go off, engine will not start, cannot push the brake to initialize startup. Online I have found many others with the same problem. Some believe that it is related to the key fab. The electronics key is not being recognized and shutting down the car. I took it to Dodge dealer and of course they could not duplicate problem or get a code. However, the danger of this is unacceptable!! I have two boys under the age of four! will a death have to occur to investigate this!?

I have recieved 3 recalls and all of them the manufacturer just says to contact dealer for vehicle inspection and part repair. Its been 3 mos and poway Dodge dealer said to wait till I got another recall notice that parts have been distributed. I am wondering if I need to have the accident before the company accepts responsability for repairs or worst deaths in my family. I have a two year old and an 8 year old to protect Mr. CEO/vp. First it was the breaks, then seat belt, now navigation system. I also have not been able to use one of the air condition vents in front seat cause its never circulated since I bought it. Was my car made on a Friday before happy hour?
