This data is from the NHTSA — the US gov't agency tasked with vehicle safety. Complaints are spread across multiple & redundant categories, & are not organized by problem.
So how do you find out what problems are occurring? For this NHTSA complaint data, the only way is to read through the comments below. Any duplicates or errors? It's not us.
I was in park waiting for a spot to open up in a school parking lot, took my vehicle out of park and proceeded to put in drive and move 20 feet or so to the parking spot, as I was turning into the spot I engaged the brake to come to a complete stop but my pedal did not work, it did not spring back like it is suppose to and my vehicle did not stop and a concrete parking pillar stopped my vehicle for me. I threw it into park and jumped out because smoke was pouring from my hood to see the damage and when I jumped back in to the car to shut it off I realized my car wasn't running and all the lights came across the dash. I restarted the car and the brake pedal pumped like nothing was wrong. $6,000 worth of damage later and still being worked on and no answers to why my brakes failed me.
Just left my drive way not from from it about to turn on another road when my car steering went out the dash was froze and when I went to use the brakes I couldn't. I was glad I was only going 13mph and didn't have to turn and no one was around me. My kids were in the car with me we rolled to a slow stop. I then turned the push button off then I turned the car back on and it acted fine. That's is dangerous. It could have ended badly. I just bought this car and now I don't even want it anymore. To scared to drive it.
The car has 35,095 miles on it and makes a grinding noise when it's slowing down from speeds of 25 mph to 35 mph and comes to a shaky stop. Then when at speeds of 50 mph plus it shakes and grindes even louder. I see that it's a rescue ring issue for this vehicle
We were driving down a 55 mile per hour highway and getting ready to make a right hand turn onto a narrow bridge. We slow down before making the turn and as we proceeded the car shut down losing control of brakes and power steering. We were able to pull wheel enough from going off the bridge. We were able to start it right backup after we got control and came to a stop, but it was one of the most scary experiences ever with a vehicle. Immediately made appt to have it looked at by dealership and they could not find anything to help us. They stated that Dodge is aware that there is an issue with the car shutting down on a turn in temperatures above 105. That day the height was only 99.we did have the newest updated software when this occurred. I have contacted Dodge directly and was told that there is nothing further they can do so next time it happens to pretty much call them and set up appt. With dealer. I am so irritated with the whole situation that now we just have to hope we don't wreck it next time it happens. We try not to drive it at all as we have 3 small children. Really hope Dodge figures something out before it's too late!
The contact owns a 2017 Dodge Journey. The contact stated that there was a delay when the push to star function was used.
