Hi I owned JOURNEY 2015 since 2 years all of sudden I noticed some fluids red colour under the HOOD leaking drastically so I parked the vehicle at my Driveway I came to know from my neighbours that they have a recall on there JOURNEY 2014
Driver side headrest has deployed, and there was no warning or notification prior to this happening. I should not have to pay hundreds of dollars on a replacement if clips or what may it be to hold device together are faulty. 1st vehicle with this problem, and now my 2nd Jeep Compass has this issue as well. No accidents, just deployed.
Airbag warning light goes on and off at times, sometime remains on for a minute or two and other times goes off immediately. This happens when the turn signal is turned on or when I run over a bump in the road. I had the codes run on it and it shows up as the steering wheel clockspring. This started doing this during summer of 2022 and stopped until recently.

Driver seat headrest deployed. Thank god I was not in car when it happened. I noticed my head was uncomfortable driving when I looked I see it wide open!! I was not in a car accident or anything at all. I just got this vehicle July 2020! this is obviously a defect and a dangerous safety hazard!! thank god my kids and I were not in vehicle. I need the dealership to fix their defective vehicle immediately!!!
Drivers side head rest went off while car was parked and not in motion. The passenger went off while driving on flat smooth road about 9 months earlier
Complete power loss while driving the whole transmission had to be replaced. Since that event we had have constant problems with misfires and fuel injectors. Airbag light keeps coming on. Electrical problems.
I was driving 35mph down a street, not a rough road at all, not braking, when I heard a loud bang. After I pulled over and inspected the vehicle, I saw that the front passenger headrest had exploded open. No one was sat in the passenger seat at the time.
After being hit dead on to the back driver side tire my vehicle swung around and hit a pole on the back passenger side door then bounced back before coming to a rest. The airbags in the front and back did not deploy despite heavy impact on both sides of the vehicle. Enough to total the vehicle and cause the wheel area to collapse. I can provide additional detailed photos of both sides of the vehicle if needed. The other vehicle was going fast but I'm unsure of their speed as I was crossing the road.
I was parked in my driveway with the car on and I was talking the my kids in the back seat turned around to look at them when I turned around I hear a loud pop like someone had hit the headrest but nobody had. Looked at the headrest and it had deployed without warning. The airbag light came on and shortly after the incident. Thankfully I was not driving otherwise it would have hit me in the back of my head.
