1) cruise control not working and only works when it wants or refuses to turn off this happens sitting still, driving or even if I turn off and on the car for reset it still does not work. The web shows a recall but the dodge dealership said no recall? This has been on going since we purchased the car and has been in the shop numerous times to get repaired and still not repaired. 2) wheels shake while applying the brakes I have replaced the rotters and brakes and it still does it I see a recall on this also but dodge says no recall? Airbag deployment without cause the internet says recall and the dodge house says no recall? This dodge journey has many problems and should be fixed by the company by recalls. They did not fix the 2010 and they found them selves in a lawsuit, maybe that is what it is going to take on the 2011 also.

"takata recall": local dodge dealer, inspected the vehicle and replaced the defective part(s), then told my wife the 'actual steering wheel airbag' wasn't working and diagnosed the issue as the electrical connector. They said they would not repair, replace or fix unless we paid the cost for a new airbag,why isn't the airbag part of the recall? We haven't had any accidents in this vehicle nor anything that would, could damage the airbag.. Since the dealer is stating the problem is electrical, in the safety system, should this be classed as a 'safety' issue and repaired by the dealer..

The airbag light is on and will not go off. I'm not for sure if the airbag will deploy if I was in a accident. My ECM will not read and it was checked by to different scan tools. I am very concern about my safety. The electronic throttle control light comes on and my vehicle will not start. I am scared to drive my vehicle because I don't know what might happen.
