Just before my warranty was up I got a check engine light and the car started running really rough almost like it was gonna die when I came to a stop. I called the dealership and they told me they would try to get me in at the next availability. With the end of my warranty closely approaching I told them this wasn’t an option. They finally got my car in after I made a few demanding phone calls to the right people and come to find out that somehow some hardware in my engine came loose and it was causing very abnormal wear on my lifters and so they “fixed” the problem. Fast forward a few months and now I’ve been having an annoying ticking noise coming from my engine. I tried using Seafoam, nada. I tried using Lucas High Mileage additive, no dice. So I took it to a trusted mechanic as it is now well outside my warranty and he told me “it’s your lifters” which I already had a feeling it would be just by listening to the sound as between and idle and acceleration. So being I have over 167k miles on it it’s not even worth fixing. Oh and just a side note, my mechanic also mentioned to me that he fixed 4 other Journeys that week which tells me that Dodge has a serious problem with these model cars that they will not address. Oh and just for the record, I have the garbage 3.6L Pentastar engine

This issue with the throttle position sensor has been going on for me, since I bought the car from dealership last year 2019. Has happened 3 times. I can drive and the car stalls, loses it power to drive, car shakes with acceleration. Had to have the dealer clear code once in july 2019, so didnt have the car for 6 months yet. Then it happened earlier this year and then it happened july 2020. Everytime this goes bad I take it in and they reset the sensor..I feel this is a safety issue especially with it reoccurring and I have two little children k drive around. It happens out of nowhere and its my first new car and thos is a saftey habit. Im afraid to travel to see family on the east coast. The thunderbolt light will start flashes and car loses its acceleration. The engine light came on as well. The traction tire light also turns off. Car does not gain acceleration and shakes. This is an ongoing issue with my dodge and othwr reviews.

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 vehicle has shut off without warning three times in the last month. All three times were at low speeds while pulling into a driveway. I then put it in park, pressed my ignition button to off, then pushed the ignition button with my foot on the brake and it started all three times on the first attempt. When it shut off, I lost power steering all three times, so thankfully I was at low speed. I do currently have code p0016 when I scan it with my reader. I had a local mechanic change 1 of my camshaft position sensors because that is what autozone recommended. That didn't solve anything. Then I made an appointment at dodge of bloomington, mn to have a lugnut repaired and my check engine light further diagnosed. They replaced the lugnut but told me they didn't have time left in the day to look at light, and said no rental vehicles were available, which is odd considering the 500 vehicles in their lot. So I made an appointment at coon rapids chrysler and they dug around for three hours, told me they couldn't find anything but charged me $500. Again no rentals here either. How far do we dig, I have 297,000 miles but other than this recent issue, vehicle has been good. Happy to include anything extra you would like. I did have coon rapids chrysler replace a camshaft in spring of 2019 when engine was ticking. That solved the ticking. I did notice my tick is back to about 75% of the sound it was in the spring after my november 29th attempted diagnosis at coon rapids. Typing on my phone, so I apologize for a few missed capitalizations. First shutoff was november 15th, recent one was december 15th and then one in between.
