When driving, both at low neighborhood speed and at highway speed, the engine stalls, lights and radio stay on, steering wheel locks and brakes lock. It has happened several times intermittently and unpredictably. I didn't become scared until it happened when I was on a highway going 60mph and almost wrecked trying to safely exit (date indicated below). The car is now in my driveway because I am afraid to drive it. A mechanic said it was related to a previously-issued safety recall but when I called a dealer to make an appointment for the recall repair, I was told that my vehicle was not included in the recall, despite the glaring similarity. I have not received a recall notice and, as stated, dealerships will not repair my vehicle for free.

I brought my 2010 dodge journey in 2012, about a year later, the care started to stall when on starting. Naturally, we thought is was the battery, so went to the dodge dealer and they agreed. Two week later, the care would not start after my sons baseball came. Someone gave me a jump, so I thought that I got a bad battery. Towed car to shop and I was told that the starter was bad. So approximately. $250.00 later I have a new battery. The care continues to not start. The dodge journey is the most unreliable car I have every had. It is now sitting in my garage, because I was driving and the car ran hot and will not go more than 30 miles per hour. I have a car not and cannot afford to get fixed. I am told that something may be wrong with the transmission, but only dealer can work on this since the transmission is buried under everything. I am frustrated and broke and still having to pay a care note!
