Horn/alarm goes off while I'm driving or while car is parked in drive way
The horn/alarm will sound randomly and for no apparent reason, often going down the road or in the middle of the night. The keyfob will lodge in and the entire electrical system is "dead". Replaced battery thinking it was battery issue. Entire electrical system is "dead" every few days. There is a strange drag/click sound when turning wheel. Many other electrical issues that are bizarre and completely random. At times you have to start, kill, restart engine and finally will go in gear. I keep checking for recalls as this appears, through multiple posts I have read, to be an issue with this year model. I can't afford to keep taking to dealerships for issues that clearly are related to the manufacturing of the vehicle.
Tl* the contact owns a 2010 dodge journey. The contact received notification of the federal safety agency campaign number: 14v373000 (air bags, electrical system); however, the part to do the repair was unavailable. The contact stated that the manufacturer exceeded a reasonable amount of time for the recall repair. The manufacturer was made aware of the issue. The contact stated that the vehicle provided false warning indicators and stopped abruptly occasionally. The failure mileage was 108,732.
When I turned off the engine and removed the key and stepped outside the vehicle I noticed the engine was still running. Engine continued to run for 45 minutes to an hour. When I reentered vehicle to try the key again it would not shut off and was unable to shift the gear lever. The vehicle was at a clients location so I drove it home and parked it in the driveway where it continued to run for about an hour when I removed the key. I had the vehicle towed to premier of cape cod the only dodge dealer on cape cod. I was told it was an electronic computer module. To replace the module with 2 new keys the cost would be $1,038.00 installed. I submitted a safety claim with the chrysler/dodge regional office and was denied. I was offered a year of free oil changes and no reimbursement as vehicle warranty was over. The vehicle was a 2010 with 74,470 miles. My concern is that this could very well been a safety issue as vehicle kept running and could not be secured. It seems to me that this should have been issued a recall as upon investigating further this model and year had a history of this issue. A $1,038.00 repair for a computer module is not your average issue/repair.
Headlight on passenger side does not work on high or low beams. It started not coming on the next morning after they where working fine 6 hours earlier and I've had everything checked and can't seem to find nothing wrong except them not working. I even replace the bulbs and they still didn't work and nothing was wrong with the old bulbs though the mechanic did not find nothing wrong I think it's the plug-in that you plug the light into.
Recall r03/the federal safety agency 14v‑373: my dealer can not make this repair as it claims insufficient parts and a large back log of cars needing this recall. The dealer claims it receives repair kits on a 1 for 1 basis, getting only a few kits at a time. I have attempted this recall repair three times, each time being turned away due to no kit on hand. The vehicle has had a number of ignition module failures while driving, and a previous recall kit (l25) was installed.

I was driving on highway 29 going to columbia md in a heavy rainstorm and my electric system in my truck shut off, I could see because the everything that needed power just stopped working in the middle of the highway. The car was still running but the computer system had shut off and I had a car full of kids. This scared us so bad , luckily I was able to ease to the side of the road where I turned that car off and back on to check if the electric system would come on. It did but as we got off the exit it cut off again.

Bought 2010 dodge journey (used) from tom wood ford dealership. I have made 3 payments. The vehicle would not start leaving me stranded in a parking lot. I tried to jump it without success. When I turned the key to jump it, white smoke came from the engine compartment and there was a strong odor of melting plastic. I grabbed my kid and belongings and fled the vehicle. I had it towed to shop. They replaced the battery and sent me on my way. The next day it started rough. I drove it approximately 2 miles to a gas station. It would not restart. Had it towed back to shop for further evaluation. All lights, radio, power windows, etc. Are functioning, starter makes clicking sound, alternator checked out ok, new battery installed, but it will not start. Mileage is 81,759.
Windows and locks open and close after car has been turned off and locked.
The horn beeps randomly. It seems to happen more right before a thunderstorm hits or when a storm is in the area. Also the car sometimes won't start. The starting problem has been an on going problem since the first year of owner ship. I'm the original owner and have had the car in for all of the recalls including the fob replacement. I feel this car is a lemon and wish I had never purchased it. My plymouth voyager was a very dependable car and I was expecting the same from the journey but that has not been the case with this car.
The painic alarm goes off on its own day or night only way to stop it unhook the batter what do I do

Takata recall when slowing down to a stop light the car locked the steering and breaks. The traction control light came on. I was unable to come to a complete stop and ended up going halfway through the light. I turned the car off then back on. It was fine. About a month later the same thing happened as we were driving on the highway. We had no control over the steering or breaks. I contacted the dealer and they said there was no open recall so they would not fix it for free. I just bought the car two months ago.

"takata recall" on 4/06/2016, my keypad would not lock my doors. On 04/09/2016, it began to work again. After starting my engine and driving my car for 1 minute, my car stalled on me. I proceeded to start my vehicle again, only for it to shut down for the second time. After my vehicle immediately shut down, everything went completely out. I could not let my windowa down, doors would not lock nor unlock radio will not play. Windshield wipers would not work. When I attempted to jump start my vehicle with a boost, smoke begin to appear from under the hood near the battery posts. I contacted a dodge dealership in my area and are currently waiting on the diagnostic results. I will be visiting the federal safety agency site today to provide you with an update.
