2010 Dodge Journey Engine Problems

Your vehicle shuts off unexpectedly while driving after about 15 minutes and won't restart until it cools down, even though you've had the camshaft, crankshaft, and throttle position sensor replaced. No diagnostic codes appear, but the stalling continues to happen. This could cause an accident or leave you stranded on the road.

Your steering wheel became very difficult to turn while parking, and your engine lost power and wouldn't restart while stopped at a traffic light. These problems have happened on and off over the past two years. The dealer couldn't reproduce the issue when they tested it, so they didn't make any repairs. The fix will likely involve diagnosing the steering and electrical/engine systems to find the intermittent fault.

The contact owns a 2010 Dodge Journey. The contact stated that when he started the vehicle, the speed odometer was flickering. The contact stated that the interior of the vehicle had an unusual burning odor. The contact stated that he drove the vehicle to a safe spot and opened the hood of the vehicle. The contact stated that when he opened the hood some parts in the engine were melted. The vehicle was towed to the residence. The vehicle was not diagnosed or repaired by an independent mechanic or dealer. The manufacturer was not made aware of the failure. The failure mileage was approximately 100,000.

While driving my engine caught on fire. My safety was put at risk because I had to pull over and get out the car. Flames started coming from the hood of the car. I just dropped my newborn baby off 10 minutes prior and was around the corner from picking up my other child. I had to call 911 and wait for the fire department to come. I tried to put it out myself but the fire was too great and I was afraid it would explode. My check engine light was on but I was told it was for an old misfire. I haven’t not had any issues with my vehicle, I drive it to work everyday. Vehicle has not been inspected by insurance as I do not currently have active insurance on vehicle. Chrysler customer service states because vehicle is 13 years old they are not liable. No dodge dealership will look at vehicle because it will be difficult to find issue alas the vehicle is totaled. There is a recall R32 starting in 2011 for this model. My engine although made in 2010 is the same engine in the recall. 2.4 liter 4 cylinder.

VEHICLE HAS INTERMITTENT ISSUE WITH STARTING ONCE VEHICLE HAS BEEN TURNED OFF. THIS HAS BEEN GOING ON FOR ABOUT 8 MONTHS, I HAVE CHANGED THE STARTER, ALTERNATOR AND BATTERY. THE VEHICLE HAS HAS A ELECTRICAL GROUND PLACED FROM THE NEGATIVE TERMINAL TO THE ENGINE BLOCK AND STILL HAS ISSUES WILL STARTING.

MY 2010 DODGE JOURNEY'S ENGINE STALLS AND I HAVE NO POWER STEERING OR BRAKES WHILE I AM DRIVING. THIS PROBLEM HAPPENED FIRST IN NOV. 2015 WITH AROUND 68000 MILES ON VEHICLE AND THOUGHT IT WAS A FLUKE OR CAUSED BY BAD WEATHER. IT STARTED TO HAPPEN SEVERAL TIMES AGAIN MARCH/APRIL 2016. DEALERSHIP COULD NOT FIND THE PROBLEM. TOOK IT BACK IN TO DEALERSHIP IN JUNE 2016, STILL COULD NOT FIND ISSUE. CONTINUED TO HAPPEN AND TOOK IT IN SEPTEMBER FOR THAT AND OTHER ISSUES (HORN GOING OFF RANDOMLY AND BATTERY DRAINING OVERNIGHT). NOW DEC 2016 AND THE CAR STALLED WHILE DRIVING 3 TIMES THIS WEEK AND THE LAST TIME SOMEONE ALMOST REAR ENDED ME BECAUSE OF IT. MY LIFE AND MY CHILDREN'S LIFE ARE AT STAKE. IT HAS ONLY HAPPENED WHEN I AM GOING UNDER 45MPH AT THIS POINT AND ON SOME OCCASIONS IT IS WHILE I AM SLOWING DOWN TO TURN IN A PARKING SPACE BUT SOMETIMES IT IS IN THE MIDDLE OF THE ROAD DRIVING. IT HAS HAPPENED IN THE MORNING/AFTERNOON/EVENING, RAIN, SNOW AND SUNSHINE, HOT AND COLD DAYS. IT DOES NOT HAPPEN EVERYDAY WHICH MAKES THIS ISSUE EVEN WORSE I NEVER KNOW WHEN IT WILL OCCUR. THE ONLY ISSUE THAT REMAINS THE SAME IS THAT MY TRACTION SYSTEM LIGHT COMES ON 90% OF THE TIME THIS OCCURS. I HAVE TOLD THIS TO THE DEALERSHIP EVERY TIME AND THEY STILL CANNOT RESOLVE THE ISSUE. I AM EXTREMELY UPSET AND HAVE SEVERAL COMPLAINTS FILED WITH CHRYSLER/DODGE HEADQUARTERS. *TR

NO HEAT FROM PASSENGER SIDE VENTS ON ANY SETTING, WHETHER DRIVING OR STATIONARY. AS A RESULT, DEFROST PERFORMANCE DOES NOT MEET FMVSS 103. FLUSHED HEATER CORE AND A LOT OF DEBRIS CAME OUT AND HEAT WORKED ON BOTH SIDES. NUMEROUS SIMILAR CASES HAVE BEEN REPORTED ONLINE. ATTACHED IMAGE IS OF SEDIMENT THAT CAME OUT DURING FLUSH. *TR

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2010 DODGE JOURNEY. WHILE DRIVING 25 MPH, THE ENGINE STALLED AND THE VEHICLE CRASHED INTO A MEDIAN.

A POLICE REPORT WAS FILED AND THERE WERE NO INJURIES. THE VEHICLE WAS TOWED TO A DEALER WHERE THE CAUSE OF THE FAILURE COULD NOT BE DETERMINED. THE VEHICLE WAS NOT REPAIRED. THE MANUFACTURER WAS NOTIFIED OF THE FAILURE. THE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS APPROXIMATELY 97,000.

THE VEHICLE HAS A VERY LATE SHIFT IN THE TRANSMISSION. SO THEREFORE WHEN GETTING OFF RAMPS TO HWYS WON'T PICK UP THE MOMENTUM IT NEEDS FOR A MILE OR TWO DOWN THE ROAD. I SEE CAN CAUSE AN ACCIDENT. I WAS TOLD BY THE DEALERSHIP THIS IS NORMAL. I HAVE DROVE AND OWNED MANY OF CARS. I HAVE EVEN HAD ONE THAT HAD A TRANSMISSION THAT WAS GOING OUT AND IT DID BETTER THEN THIS CAR. I AM MAKING THIS COMPLAINT BECAUSE I WOULD HATE TO SEE AN ACCIDENT HAPPEN DUE TO THIS VERY LATE SHIFT IN THE TRANSMISSION.

I BROUGHT MY 2010 DODGE JOURNEY IN 2012, ABOUT A YEAR LATER, THE CARE STARTED TO STALL WHEN ON STARTING. NATURALLY, WE THOUGHT IS WAS THE BATTERY, SO WENT TO THE DODGE DEALER AND THEY AGREED. TWO WEEK LATER, THE CARE WOULD NOT START AFTER MY SONS BASEBALL CAME. SOMEONE GAVE ME A JUMP, SO I THOUGHT THAT I GOT A BAD BATTERY. TOWED CAR TO SHOP AND I WAS TOLD THAT THE STARTER WAS BAD. SO APPROXIMATELY. $250.00 LATER I HAVE A NEW BATTERY. THE CARE CONTINUES TO NOT START. THE DODGE JOURNEY IS THE MOST UNRELIABLE CAR I HAVE EVERY HAD. IT IS NOW SITTING IN MY GARAGE, BECAUSE I WAS DRIVING AND THE CAR RAN HOT AND WILL NOT GO MORE THAN 30 MILES PER HOUR. I HAVE A CAR NOT AND CANNOT AFFORD TO GET FIXED. I AM TOLD THAT SOMETHING MAY BE WRONG WITH THE TRANSMISSION, BUT ONLY DEALER CAN WORK ON THIS SINCE THE TRANSMISSION IS BURIED UNDER EVERYTHING. I AM FRUSTRATED AND BROKE AND STILL HAVING TO PAY A CARE NOTE!

I TOOK MY CAR TO KAHLO DODGE IN INDIANA. WORST DEALER SERVICE EVER. RUDE AND UNPROFESSIONAL. THEY REPLACED A CLUSTER AND 1 HOUR LATER WE WERE BACK AT DODGE FOR THE SAME ISSUE. THEN THE SERVICE MANAGER SAID CHRYSLER SUPPLIES DEFECTIVE PARTS. WOW. IS THIS OK TO DO...WE PAY THOUSANDS FOR A VEHICLE AND CHRYSLER SUPPLIES DEFECTIVE PARTS??? WE TAKE IT BACK AND THEY FIX YET AGAIN. HOURS LATER, YOU GUESSED IT WE ARE BACK AGAIN AND THEY TELL US THEY CAN'T DO ANYTHING BECAUSE THEY ARE CLOSED. WE TAKE IT BACK THIS MONDAY AFTER THEY LET US DRIVE OFF IN AN UNSAFE VEHICLE AND THEY TELL US IT'S THE BREAKS AND SAID IT WAS GOING TO BE $700. THEN THEY TAKE IT APART AND SAY ITS NOT THAT PUT IT BACK TOGETHER TEST DRIVE IT AND TELL US IT'S THE MASTER SOLENOID AND IT WILL BE $1000. I HAVE HAD ENOUGH OF DODGE. I CALLED THE HELPLINE ONLY FOR THEM TO TELL ME A SUPERVISOR WILL CALL IN 1 BUSINESS DAY. 4 BUSINESS DAYS LATER I CALL THEM BACK AND GET A"SUPERVISOR" WHO WILL "LOOK INTO " MY ISSUES. I AM DONE. FILING A LAW SUIT, CALLING LOCAL TV STATIONS, ENOUGH DODGE!!! DO THE RIGHT THING, READ THESE POSTS AND FIX THESE ISSUES. WE SPEND A LOT OF MONEY ON YOUR CRAPPY PRODUCT ONLY TO BE GOUGED OVER AND OVER. YOUR RECALLS NEVER END. YOUR SERVICE IS HORRIFIC. MAYBE YET ANOTHER CLASS ACTION WILL SOLVE THIS.

I HAVE HAD 2010 DODGE JOURNEY SINCE MAY 2012 AND NEEDED TO TAKE CAR TO DEALERLSHIP FOR ATLEAST 4 DIFFERENT ISSUES. HOWEVER, THE PROBLEM THAT OCCURED ON FEBRUARY 28, 2013 HAS ME BEWILDERED AND VERY UNEASY ABOUT DRIVING WITH MY FAMILY AND EVER EVER PURCHASING A DODGE OR CHRYSLER VEHICLE AGAIN-AND THE U.S.A. WANTS US TO BUY AND SUPPORT AMERICAN MADE PRODUCTS. ON 02/28/12, I WAS RUSHING TO GET MY SON TO A MEETING AND WHEN WE GOT OUT OF CAR, LOCKED THE DOOR AND WENT IN BUILDING. WHEN WE RETURNED, PUT THE KEY IN IGNITION AND JUST CLICKING NOISE WITH EVERYTHING WORKING EXCEPT FOR THE CAR CRANKING. I WAITED ABOUT 30 MINUTES AND THEN TRIED TO CRANK BUT NO SUCH LUCK. IT WAS LATE IN THE EVENING, AND HERE I AM WITH MY BABIES IN THE CAR, ON A SCHOOL NIGHT, AND TRYING TO CALL A TOW. MY COUSIN DID COME OUT, WE ATTEMPTED JUMPER CABLES AND THEN WENT TO GET GAS AND IT STARTED. I WENT TO THE GAS STATION TO FILL UP JUST IN CASE, IGNITION STILL ON AND THE CAR CUTS OFF AND DOESNT RESTART. I CONTACTED A TOW AGAIN AND AN HOUR AND HALF LATER WHEN TOW ARRIVED; IT CRANKED FOR THE TOW DRIVER. ONCE I GOT HOME AND PARKED, THE CAR WOULD NOT START AGAIN. WHEN MY HUSBAND GOT HOME ABOUT 4HOURS LATER, IT STILL WOULD NOT CRANK. ON 3/1/13 ATTEMPTED TO TAKE KIDS TO SCHOOL AND CAR WOULD NOT START. IT DID FINALLY CRANK AFTER IT WAS TOO LATE AND WE TOOK TO A LICENSED MECHANIC TO COMPLETE A DIAGNOSTIC. HE KEPT ALL DAY TESTING AND TO NO AVAIL, NO CODES OR PROBLEMS APPEARED. IT DID CRANK BUT I'M VERY FEARFUL OF DRIVING THE CAR NOW WITH MY FAMILY. I CONTACTED SEVERAL DODGE DEALERSHIPS, DODGE CUSTOMER SERVICE, AND DODGE TECHAUTHORITY AND NO ONE SEEMED TO KNOW OR HAVE HEARD OF THE PROBLEM IM HAVING. *TR

THIS 2010 DODGE JOURNEY SXT WHICH WAS DELIVERED TO ME ON 18 MARCH 2010. ON 19 JULY 2010 I HAD TO TAKE THIS VEHICLE TO TUCSON DODGE WHEN THE CHECK ENGINE CAME ON AND THE VEHICLE COMMENCED TO SHUDDER. EXAMINATION BY THE SERVICE DEPARTMENT FOUND THAT THE # 1 CYLINDER WAS MISFIRING AND THE INTAKE AND EXHAUST VALVES WERE NOT SEALING PROPERLY.ALSO, THE LOWER INTAKE MANIFOLD PLUG WAS SEEPING COOLANT. THE EXPANSION COOLANT TANK WAS LEAKING AT THE SEAM. THESE PROBLEMS NECESSITATED THE REPLACEMENT OF THE ENTIRE RIGHT CYLINDER HEAD ASSEMBLY AND LOWER INTAKE MANIFOLD,AND EXPANSION COOLANT TANK. AFTER REPAIR AND RETURN OF THE VEHICLE TO ME, 26 JULY 2012 , UPON STARTING THE VEHICLE A DISTINCT CLICKING NOISE WAS HEARD . WHICH I REPORTED TO THE SERVICE DEPARTMENT WHO WERE QUITE DISMISSIVE ABOUT IT . ON OR ABOUT 27 AUGUST I RETURNED TO THE DEALERSHIP THE CLICKING WAS GETTING LOUDER AND THE VEHICLE WAS SHUDDERING AGAIN. THIS NECESSITATED A SECOND ENGINE REPAIR. "THE ROCKER ARMS ARE WALKING DUE TO WORN BLOCKS AND ROCKERS". ERGO THE LEFT AND RIGHT BANK ROCKER ARMS/SHAFTS/TAPPETS HAD TO BE REPLACED. CHRYSLER HAS FAILED.NEGLECTED AND REFUSED TO REPLACE THE ENGINE IN ITS ENTIRETY DESPITE MY DEMAND THAT THEY DO BECAUSE OF REPEATED DOCUMENTED DEFECTS THEREWITH. THIS ENGINE SHOULD NOT HAVE BEEN BROKEN DOWN AND REPAIRED. EVIDENCE THE SECOND ENGINE PARTS FAILURE. ALSO, WHY SHOULD THE BLOCKS BE WORN AT 32K MILES? I AM THINKING THAT THEY WERE WORN WHEN THEY WERE PUT IN AT THE FACTORY AND AN INSPECTOR MISSED THIS IF IN FACT THEY WERE EVEN INSPECTED AT ASSEMBLY.I HAVE ABSOLUTELY NO CONFIDENCE IN THE ROADWORTHINESS OF THIS VEHICLE. THIS ENGINE PRESENTS A SERIOUS THREAT TO THE SAFETY AND WELLBEING OF ME AND/OR MY WIFE AND GRANDCHILDREN WHILE WE ARE OUT IN THE VEHICLE. I AM CONCERNED THAT THE ENGINE NEXT WILL SEIZE OR SHUT DOWN PUTTING ME OR THEM IN HARMS WAY WITHOUT WARNING. *TR *JS

MY DODGE WAS PURCHASED AND ORIGINALLY HAD A RADIO CONNECTION PROBLEM. WHERE IT PLAYED STATIC WHILE PLAYING A CD AS WELL AS THE SPEAKERS SOUNDED BLOWN OUT. SINCE HE RADIO HAS BEEN REPLACED 3 TIMES AND STILL SEEMS TO REMAIN THE SAME. I HAVE HAD THE ALIGNMENT DONE 4 TIMES SINCE MAY 2011 AND THE PROBLEM REMAINS.THE AC HAS A DELAY WHEN TURNED ON. BUT MY BIGGER PROBLEM IS WHEN I FELT MY CAR SHUDDER WHILE PULLING AWAY FROM THE CURB. IT SERIOUSLY FELT AS THOUGH THE WHEELS WERE GOING TO FALL RIGHT OFF AND OUT FROM UNDER THE CAR. I TOOK IT IN TO THE DEALERSHIP AND THEY REPORTED NO PROBLEM ALTHOUGH WHEN WE TEST DROVE THE CAR THE ! LIGHT IN THE DASH CAME ON. SO THEY HAD ME WAIT ABOUT 20 ADDITIONAL MINUTES TO FIX THE ISSUE. SINCE I HAVE GOTTEN MY CAR BACK IT NOW SHUTS COMPLETELY OFF WHEN I COME TO A STOP. I AM FREAKED OUT AND DEVASTATED BY MY OVERWHELMING CONCERN FOR MY 5YR SON AND MYSELF. I JUST AM CURRENTLY NOT FEELING THE "DEPENDABLE DODGE" STATEMENT. HOPEFULLY DODGE RECOGNIZES THAT THIS IS HAPPENING OFTEN AND FIXES IT BEFORE A DEATH OCCURS. SIMPLY IS IT A DANGER TO OUR SELF AND THE COMMUNITY TO DRIVE AROUND IN CARS THAT COMPLETELY SHUT DOWN UNEXPECTEDLY. *TR

BOTH HAD BEEN GOING ABOUT 5 MPH AND WERE ABOUT 35 TO 40 FEET APART WHEN THE DODGE JOURNEY ENGINE STARTED TO RACE AND THE VEHICLE IN FRONT WAS STRUCK, WOULD NOT STOP EVEN THOUGHT THE BRAKES WERE APPLIED. AFTER THE ACCIDENT WHILE THE FRONT SEAT PERSONS WERE OUTSIDE THE VEHICLE LOOKING AT THE DAMAGE ON BOTH VEHICLES THE DODGE ENGINE STARTED TO RACE AGAIN WITH NO ONE IN THE FRONT OF THE VEHICLE, IT WAS SHUT OFF AT THIS POINT. AFTER NAMES AND SO FORTH WERE EXCHANGED [ BOTH VEHICLES WERE RENTALS] THE DODGE WAS RESTARTED AND RAN FINE INTO THE RETURN AREA. WHILE THEY WERE CHECKING IT IN AND THE VEHICLE RETURN AGENT WAS SHOWN THE DAMAGE HE WENT OVER TO CHECK THE GAS LEVEL. UNDERSTAND, AGAIN AT THIS TIME THERE WAS NO ONE INSIDE THE RENTAL VEHICLE AT ALL.
