While driving the vehicle in a wet parking lot the ABS light and stability light came on and remained on. This has also affected the cruise control as well. There was a recall on Dodge Journeys from 2012-2015 for the same issue VIN may need included in the recall.

Car will stall anywhere and anytime and doesn't give you enough time to pull over. Lose all power to accelerator and steering wheel. Check engine light comes on car will not shut off and will not move. If car is off it won't start often being towed. Camshaft sensor and crankshaft position sensor have been replaced 3 times within a year. Truly a safety hazard especially at highway speeds. The radio and air controls have a mind of their own after you manually shut them off they come back on or start blowing out hot air on legs.

My SUV auto start no longer works and as I'm driving the car, the check engine light randomly comes on while the car is in motion and the car engine shuts off and starts to slow down to a complete stop. When it got plugged up to a diagnostic machine it stated that it had 3 crankshaft position sensors that needed to be replaced. Vechile has 52000 and is a 2015

There was a bunch of long lines on the screen and the key fob wasn't detected even though the key was in the car. This happened as the car wouldn't crank up. The car wouldn't register that it was in park. It reflected that it was in batter save mode. The A/C cuts on by itself. Even after cutting it off a few times. The issue with the A/C was happening with both front and rear units. The rear would blow out a lot of hot air and it wouldn't sync. The issue with the key fob just happened today (9/13/19)

The contact owns a 2015 Dodge Journey. While driving approximately 25 mph on wet pavement, all the warning indicators on the instrument panel illuminated and the brakes locked. The contact pulled over to the side of the road. The vehicle was towed to an independent mechanic who determined that the anti-lock brake system module and hydraulic control assembly were damaged and needed replacement. The vehicle was towed to dave dennis Chrysler/Dodge/Jeep (4232 colonel glenn hwy, dayton, oh 45431) where it was determined that water entered the anti-lock brake system and shorted the ABS module and hydraulic control assembly, which needed replacement. The contact also received a recall notification for NHTSA campaign number: 15V675000 (electronic stability control, service brakes, hydraulic). The vehicle was not repaired. The manufacturer was notified of the failure. The approximate failure mileage was 60,000.
