Filed Dec 10, 2023 · Airbags, Electrical · MN

Horn honks randomly will driving or turned off/parked. Windows go up/down on their own. Locks/unlocks. wipers turn on/off. Emergency flashers turn on/blink all on their own. Appears to be an issue with security system. Replaced TIPM and still having issues with all of the above. My truck is dead every day, replaced battery twice & crack shaft sensor, still having issues. There is a ticking noise and sounds like my truck is trying to turn itself on without the key in the ignition. Airbag light will not go off. This vehicle is 13 years old and Dodge needs to do a recall for all the issues people are reporting.

The vehicle turns off while driving even on the highway. Very dangerous other vehicles have a recall on this issue just not my VIN. The engine has had a knock on it even after being serviced.

Purchased used dodge 2010 journey from dealership in may 2012, returned vehicle about 2weeks later to have service department check for ticking noise on drivers side when driving. Service department checked vehicle and said they didn't hear anything and it just may be wind noise when I drive at a certain speed. One month later, I needed brakes-front rotors that were bad. I had my mechanic to replace and he did apologize that I had purchased a lemon and had to spend out money for brakes already. Needed 2 rear tires by july 2012, they had never been rotated but I accepted for not doing enough homework on purchase. Now at 50,000 miles, car just cuts off, wont start until hours later, and diagnostic test does not show any codes or problems.

Bought a brand new 2010 dodge journey and it needed new brake pads and rotors at just 19,000 miles, worried brakes may fail at some point or are not sufficient enough for the vehicle. Dealership billed me $50 to get them repaired, stated chrysler/dodge company put a "participation fee" and if my car was over 24,000 miles it would be $100. Dodge seems well aware of this issue with the brakes on these vehicles but are not doing anything about it, brakes are a top safety concern for any vehicle, and I feel I am driving a ticking time bomb especially with my children in the vehicle.
