Thanks for comment. I finally was able to delve into this issue and did find it's an old school incandescent bulb typical of bulbs to light up the instrument gauges. For those that may experience the same issue down the road the bulb is made by Osram and it's 12V at 2.0W. Don't biyher going to your dealership. Dealt with 4 parts deparent in my area and they will sell you the wrong bulb or don't know about it at all. Showed the bulb to the local automotive store and they know about it. Got the exact Osram bulb and a few more to store. Now my lighting is fixed.

Hi guys, Yesterday I noticed the right side of the LED back lighting behind the HVAC (Air Condition) control are gone. So I give it a slight tap and it comes back on. As the vehicle moves along the bumps, it shuts back off. Any tap or bump on the unit or sides makes the back lighting turn on and off. The left side is completely intact. So I obviously think lose connection. I Google how to remove the fascia which is just an easy pull, the whole HVAC controls are attached to this fascia. The wires seem okay. I check the wires as well as what seems like the LED bulb holder (there are two, one on each side) which I don't even know how it works or is seated. I just touch it and try to twist and turn it thinking it's like a bulb screw but nothing gives. Nothing loose. I tap on the fascia itself and it comes back on again and stays on despite repeat hard taps on it. I put it all back again, give it a few taps and bumps on the side and everything good. So really I don't know what I did or how it fixed itself. My question: 1. Anyone experience similar issues of the back lighting turning off on one or both sides of the HVAC controls? What was the problem and fix? 2. Anyone know how to remove and replace these LED bulbs in case it does eventually burn out? Thanks for input.

DodgeCACares, engine sounds back to normal. That was only yesterday so I will update if no noise in the long term. Now if only Dodge can correct the transmission jerking issue, this would have been a car I would have been more content with.

Yeah, same. I couldn't find actual illustration on the part number. Will ask him the next time I'm in for service. Was wondering if any technical guys who did it themselves know exactly what this assembly or part is. I was wondering if it's an assembly then they needed one? But my paperwork says two (2) for front and rear cylinder heads so it threw me off if they only selected a few parts. Anyway if anyone has done this themselves. Otherwise will just update when I speak to him again.

Okay, got the car back. Now it's silent again. The main part they replaced is this one: 2pcs of Arm Inlet and Exhaust Valve - 4892293AC - front and rear as well as the gaskets. Is this the full exhaust set? I input the part number but no photo is coming up so I don't know if there are more that will break soon or this is the full replacement set to take care of the lashing sound.

Hi. Thanks for sharing. Good to know there are great Dodge dealers out there. I will advise what they did to mine.

Hi, Wondering if anyone else with a 2010 Dodge Journey 3.5L engine model is having similar engine lashing / ticking sounds? I saw a TSB in another forum for similar 3.5L engine used in previous Dodge vehicles and up to 2009 Dodge Journey and this was supposed to have been addressed by then. However it is still occurring in my engine so it appears either my engine hasn't been addressed with the updated parts or the updated parts do not last as well and causing the same ticking /.lashing noise of the lifters. Took it to the dealer a second time after it was making the same loud noise and the technician simply said to the service advisor it's the engine TSB. So he ordered the parts and my car is in to be fixed. Don't know how many days it will be and they have no loaner. Yikes. Anyone else with similar issue and had a fix with the dealer? I only have a 5-year powertrain warranty being in Canada so time is running out.

This wasn't a 20K inspection, but a paid for $600+ brake job replacement so there is nothing to be missed. It was the job. After complaining to the service manager, they finally did it right yesterday. I am handy, but like I said earlier our building complex does not allow nor has space for fixing your own car. That's why we are willing to put our trust and pay your dealers. Authorized Dodge dealers to do the job right the first time.

I fix small stuff myself with regards to the interior of the vehicle, but for us "unlucky" guys who live in a Downtown apartment complex that has common underground parking and doesn't allow fixing your car mechanically in greater details then we will have to contend with paying someone else.

Sadly this missed "proper brake maintenance" is coming from your dealer who replaced my brakes and rotors.

Well good yo know the improved in your 2014, 4 years later than my 2010 - which obviously have different bumper exterior and interiors already.It can't beat the tight fit and finish of my previous 2005 Audi, which is 5 years earlier. Of course the price difference is night and day. So in my case I get what I pay for.

Thanks for info. Anyway I can do this myself without having to go back to the dealer? I mean, is it easy as removing the tires and lubricating something or do the calipers and pads need to be removed as well?

Mine is the opposite. Had my rear rotors and brakes replaced recently by the dealer. Now upon braking lightly I hear a clunking noise. But when it's raining/wet, the noise disappears. Of course when I had the dealer check when it rained, they can't hear it. Any idea what noise this might be? I need to describe it further for them to re-check.

How do you program it yourself? And why do you need two working remotes? Does this mean after the program, you will have three working remotes?

I am experiencing some sort of leak only from a high pressure touch less wash coming from the sunroof as well. Just one or two minute drops. Otherwise, any strong rain, no problems for now. The fit and finish of the Dodge Journey is not exactly something to be proud of, I'm ashamed at times with the Dodge executives who gave it a go how it was able to pass final inspection.
