As I was driving through a grocery parking lot, I remember taking my foot off of the accelerator to slow down and to make a right turn up an isle to go to a parking spot. Once my foot came off of the accelerator, my car died, no brakes, and no steering. The electrical continued to work as my music was still playing and the flashers worked as well. I put the car in park, and pushed the start button, nothing happened. I tried a couple more times and then my car started back up. I drove to a parking spot, shut the car off and turned it back on. I drove back home with no issues and put her in the garage. I'm very nervous, to say the least as I have to drive to work tomorrow. I hope this does not occurs as I'm driving 55 MPH.
2015 Dodge Journey brakes complaints
Page 3 of 5: complaints 41 to 70 of 106, newest first, as owners wrote them.
Traction control warning light, brake warning light, ABS light all triggered and strange jolt when driving 50 MPH on a highway flyover. Matches description of safety recall r61 dtc c2200-49 and body module codes listed.
2 lights came on on the dash. It was determined to be the anti lock brake sensor so I had it replaced. Less than 30 days later, it came on again. It was determined to be the same thing but they wouldn't cover fixing it because they didnt know if it was the same one they had already replaced ir another of the sensors. Apparently this is something that happens on all dodge journeys and for some reason, a recall hasnt been issued.
When it rains the ABS, traction control lights and service all wheel drive lights come on and the cruise control does not work . Next day soon as I drive all lights go out.it is happening more and more..thier is a recall for 2015 dodge journey for this but they say not for mine.funny that I have same problems and same year car. This happens when driving in the rain or wet roads.
Abs light, skid control light remains on, cruise control not operating at all when turned on vehicle lights came on, cruise control not working at all fear that there may be issue with brakes, have seen complaints of leakage into ABS system on other year models

The contact pulled over to the side of the road. The vehicle was towed to an independent mechanic who determined that the anti-lock brake system module and hydraulic control assembly were damaged and needed replacement. The vehicle was towed to dave dennis chrysler/dodge/jeep (4232 colonel glenn hwy, dayton, oh 45431) where it was determined that water entered the anti-lock brake system and shorted the ABS module and hydraulic control assembly, which needed replacement. The contact also received a recall notification for the federal safety agency campaign number: 15v675000 (electronic stability control, service brakes, hydraulic). The vehicle was not repaired. The manufacturer was notified of the failure. The approximate failure mileage was 60,000.
Tl* the contact owns a 2015 dodge journey. The contact stated that the anti-skid and ABS warning indicators illuminated.

Precisely on 7.3.19 I had 4 of my children with me heading to a holiday parade. My car w/o warning completely stopped in the middle of a road. No power, no brakes, no steering. Air was still blowing; radio still playing. My daughter and I pushed my car to the curb, my husband came and pushed my car further to avoid an accident. After several attempts the car restarted and restarted fine. Drove another .5 city block; stopped at a stop sign, pulled out and my car died again in the middle of the intersection. My husband was still behind me & pushed us out. We drove home. He looked under the hood, nothing stood out. I didn't get any warnings on the dash. The car has driven fine until 7.5.19. My daughter and I just turned onto calumet ave; a very busy and dangerous road and my car died again. Several cars flying around us laying on their horn. I do not have power to turn, to brake. My daughter and I got out and push my car into a parking lot that has a slight uphill entrance. It was not easy, it was dark outside. A very dangerous situation. I can only flip my hazard lights on, well what does that do when a car is flying up behind me at 40-50mph? I am terrified my car is going to die and my family and I are going to get seriously hurt and/or killed. Reading on the internet there seems to be many people with the same issue and dodge is not responding. I have children who require trips to indianapolis for medical issues and it is a 3-4 hour drive for us. Speed limit is 70. I cannot afford to trade this in and purchase a new car. I do not where else to go for help. If you call a mechanic or the dealership they tell you that can't help without looking at it. Dodge dealer denies ever hearing of it before which I don't believe. Neither of course will do a free inspection. I get it they're there to make money. Recall should be issued to fix this before it becomes deadly.
Tl* the contact owns a 2015 dodge journey. While driving various speeds, the ABS and traction control warning indicators illuminated.

The ABS and ESC alarm and warning lights came on at the same time, while I was driving and I had just applied the brakes for a car turning left that was in front of me.
I was driving down the interstate when my ABS and traction control light came on. I seen where my vehicle is not covered under the recall. I have a 2015 with only 44105 miles. It will cost me several hundreds dollars to have it fixed.
There are times when my ABS light comes in and my cruise control won't work and the anti skid lights is in. The brakes half way make this grind noise and I need feel the brakes locking up but not all the way but sure gets your attention. It's happened a couple times while just driving or going down road or stopping on city streets moving straight.
Tl* the contact owns a 2015 dodge journey. The contact stated that the ABS warning indicator kept randomly flashing. The contact also heard an abnormal loud noise when applying and releasing the brake pedal. Also, at various points in time, the brake pedal failed to function and the cruise control intermittently failed to work. The dealer (chris myers dodge chrysler jeep (27163 us-98, daphne, al 36526, (251) 621-8885) indicated that they serviced the vehicle with a warranty and cleared the code, but had not specified a specific repair diagnosis for the brake failure.

Tl* the contact owns a 2015 dodge journey. The contact stated that the all wheel drive warning indicator flashed intermittently. When the warning indicator illuminated, the vehicle went into two wheel drive and became difficult to maneuver. The vehicle was not diagnosed by a dealer to determine the cause of the failure. In addition, the brake pedal was difficult to depress and the front and rear wheels were unstable. The manufacturer was notified of the failures. The VIN and failure mileage were not available.
The antilock brake system (ABS) control module failed. There was a recall on the ABS control module for this vehicle model and production year. But chrysler claims this particular ABS module is not related to the recall and that it is due to a short in the module. I share this information so you can investigate to determine if there is another issue with ABS modules. Anti lock brakes are a safety feature that help prevent accidents. If the control modules are failing on vehicles that are only 3 years old that seems like more than coincidence. Could there be a correlation between safety recall r61 issued in december 2015 and the failure of the ABS module in this vehicle?
Tl* the contact owns a 2015 dodge journey. While the vehicle was stationary, the ABS failed. While driving 55 MPH during a rainstorm, the ABS and traction control warning indicators illuminated.

Our vehicle was manufactured 5 days outside the scope of the recall, yet displayed the same problem and dealership was not willing to repair under the general warranty. Updated 10/16/18
Abs light on
The ABS warning light is illuminated, but there is no trouble codes. There has been a recall alert, about the electronic stability of such I found online.
When accelerating vehicle pulls more one way (right). When at steady speed vehicle holds direction but if getting on the freeway or accelerating after stopping, I have to strongly correct the vehicle's direction. Concerned there is a possibility of brakes not fully releasing after stopping and is only noticeable because of the speed (entering the freeway) or full stop was made.
Abs recall, my dodge journey fits the same description for an ABS recall, however my VIN number doesn't say that it is affected. I am outside of warranty so the dealership won't touch it. Displeased majorly!!
My car has 64,000 miles on it and the ABS light, traction light, brake light and check engine light came. I have an appointment on friday to get it diagnosed. At 32,000 miles the check engine light came on upon starting and my car would not go over 30 miles per hour. A fuel injector sensor went out.
Tl* the contact owns a 2015 dodge journey. While driving 40 MPH, the rear of the vehicle shifted to the left and the check engine, brake, and ABS warning indicators illuminated.

Was parking on an incline, I had come to a complete stop. When I applied the parking/emergency brake the cable disconnected from the parking/emergency brake pedal. There was an audible pop and the pedal fell towards the firewall. The pedal no longer retracts without manual assistance. When fully retracted, if not held in place, the weight of the pedal trips the brake's sensor and the brake alarm.

Tl* the contact owns a 2015 dodge journey. While driving approximately 45 MPH, the vehicle stalled and the air bag, throttle control, and tire pressure warning indicators illuminated intermittently, along with the key fob light. The contact mentioned that the steering wheel seized and the brakes failed to operate, causing the vehicle to crash into the woods. The air bags did not deploy. A police report was filed. The contact sustained a sprained right arm that needed medical attention. The vehicle was towed to an independent mechanic where the diagnosis was undetermined. The dealer was not contacted. The vehicle was not repaired. The manufacturer was not notified of the failure. The approximate failure mileage was 39,000.
The problem was the engine stalling while driving. Lost the ability to steer and brake. I had this problem happen to my 18yr old daughter on october 9th 2017. I called the dealer on october 10th where we purchased it to explain what was going on. They got it in that morning and drove it for about 30 miles and could not recreate the problem. They said the car did not give them any codes to tell them what the issue was so they could not do anything because they did not know what to replace. I am not sure if there is a relevance to the problem but a week before this happened my keyfob would not work at all. The car would say key not detected. I had to press the keyfob into the button to get the car started. Once I got home, which is 15 miles away, I noticed the tpm sensors were only reading 1 tire pressure. The others were reading "---". The keyfob battery's were replaced on both keyfobs to make sure that was not the issue but it didn't help. I disconnected the battery to reset the computer and the keyfobs started to work correctly. I drove the car a few miles and the tpm sensors started to read. Again I am not sure if this is related but thought I should point it out. This is a dangerous problem and could end up very bad with not being able to steer or brake because you loose all power. Here is a video of the problem happening.
