I purchased a Dodge Journey 2016 in February. It currently has 2700 miles. Noticed vehicle was "heavy" to drive and made a loud motor sound when driving. That was on 3/19, on 3/20 the car leaked fluid and was difficult to steer. Dealership stated it was a coolant leak, picked up the car on 3/22. Brought the car back due to steering sounds again and fluid in the garage on 3/23, they stated it was "residual" effects and the car was fine. 3/26 the car was making a crunching sound when the steering wheel was turned. Apparently, they damaged a tube during the fix for the coolant pump. My opinion, it is a lemon. I love the car, but it can't be ok to purchase a brand new vehicle and it not be reliable.
