I was driving last night up a two lane street and all of a sudden my airbags deploy. I noticed my airbag light came on a few days ago but it turned back off yesterday. When the airbags deployed my car shifted causing it to hit the curb a little. I was able to shift the car to the right and park it but the entire car shut off. I need my car fixed and dont know how to do this.

Purchased my 2014 dodge journey in feburary 2019. Before having couple recalls done on my I had no lights on my dash board ever since purchased my car. Then I had recall t47 done on my car in april 2019 there begins to start randomly flashing the airbag deployment light on my dashboard. Could be in park or in gear the light will appear and stay all at random. Contacted dealership to schedule an additional recall and informed them of this airbag lighting issue. Was told that it caused from my seatbelt wiring. If that was the case then the light would have came on before ever having any recalls done more specifically the t47 recall for exactly that issue with the airbag wiring. Then the guy attempts to provide me with a quote on how much they were going to try and charge me to have it fixed !! I dont know what you would call this but I know it can not be legal !! Please investigate and help stop this from happening to anyone else who uses this dealership !!!

The radio will randomly turn stations and just completely go black. The A/C turns itself on and off. The airbag lights keep randomly coming up and then go away.this all happens rather I'm driving fast, slow, or stopped at a light and has happened since purchasing the car a year ago. I'm also having an issue with the check engine light coming on with it being the p0420. I only use mid grade gas and only from exxon or chevron. I also make sure the gas cap is on tightly. The check engine light will be on one day and not the next.

My 2014 dodge journey was parked in my drive way, I tried to start up the car and it did not want to turn on. On the dash the following appeared and flashed several times before turning off: a red lightning bolt and airbag. The transmission light also flashed in yellow however it did stay on. I originally thought it needed a battery replacement so with battery jumper cables we attempted to get the journey to start and it refused to start even after leaving the cars connected for several minutes. I read some forums online as more people have experienced this issue with their dodge journey's (ranging from 2009-2016 models) two gentlemen stated if you place the car in neutral and then start the vehicle it would crank up however my car did not. The brake pedal seems stuck and extremely hard to press down as well but that's usually like that for me on any given day to start my car. I attempted to start up the vehicle again without using jumper cables and the dash then stated it did not detect the key but the key was inside the car with me, again all lights turning on, flashing and then turning off only for transmission light to stay on. I am aware there are some previous and more recent recalls with this vehicle and I've had two repaired however the dealer does not make it easy for the job to be done, either parts need to be ordered and are not in to someone not reaching out when they're ready as well as being told my car would need to stay there overnight to several days as they were extremely busy which does not work for me. I am not sure what the problem is but it seems to be electrical (unknown). 12/07/2019 I tried to start up the vehicle once again and still does not turn on, transmission light and airbag light both stay on.

The air bag warning light is on. Have to take it to a dealer to find out what's wrong. Also the oil filter manifold cracked and leaked oil. Had to get it replaced.
