  1. well after having the alignment done you waited till spring and then put on new tires and didnt bother to have them recheck the alignment and now blame the dealership after the tires get ruined again? have to say a lot of the problem was due to you. I had my rear alignment go bad and it ruined both of the rears lucky they were getting to the end of their life anyways, so i had the dealership do a alignment and after a couple of months later when i bought new tires i went to quick lane tire store ( they are a national chain store) they had a sign up that they offered lifetime 4 wheel alignments for $179. so i bought that service ( alignment was fine they told me) and have since had it checked about 2-3 more times since then you might want to check them out if they are in your state. good luck
  2. i am no mech but it sounds like what ever controls the fluid pressure be the torque converter or whatever. good luck and report back on what you find when you get it fixed
  3. with the flush DID you have them replace the filter with an OEM one or after market filter?
  4. its like when your working on your journey and the dam wrench is just a little loose then you have to stop and hunt for the metric wrench or socket and then realize dam i dont have that size ,then have to reach for the vice grips....LOL plays both ways on us southerns take care up there i might have to get out of my shorts here in another month or two...
  5. he probally hasn't even looked at his owners manual...probally be a one poster
  6. actually i believe the fuel pumps were moved to the gas tanks yrs ago because it made it more standard and less parts that had to be added onto the engine for all the different car models. i worked at Chrysler Huntsville Electronics for 28 yrs and remember all the different parts we made for different car manufactures. fuel pump sending units, oil sender units speedometer clusters all the different computer modules ,radios, air bags senders,and many more automotive parts. we made parts for ford,gm, and many different import makers as well.
  7. well dodge is based in the U.S. guess its because of that reason. But i do wonder what about imports are their metrics or standard like the usa, have never owned an import to know any difference...
  8. i cant believe i just lost 2 minutes of my life reading this post,
  9. well i have a hard time believing that a air filter put in backwards would cause a difference in air flow on only one side of the hvac system, ( as the filter is just a thin piece of cotton ) more likely the blend door became response after you were changing the filter, anyways good luck that it stays working for you. now the temp difference what be from a partially plug heater core and from what most posters have commented on that flushing sometimes works only to find they later on need to replace the heater core , being 2011 might be better to just replace the heater core instead of doing the flush ( save a little $$) check out you tube for the easy and cheap way to do it than the dealership way....
  10. my daughter had a problem couple yrs ago with the coil going bad on her caravan sounds like what you are having problems with, they ( regular garage not the dealership) kept replacing her coil said it was bad, lucky thing was the coil was guaranteed for 1 yr and it kept going bad about every 3 months ( this was her postal van) so it started bucking and messing up so she took it in and it ran good for him but he said leave it and let me try it for a couple of days he ended up finding out the wires in the connector were shorting out and thus making the coil go bad he replaced the connector from the wire loom and no more problems for her. have them check for shorted or bare wires. good luck
  11. thanks for posting back with the solution,might help some one else down the line. good luck i have had 2 journeys and have loved them both
  12. JUST go by your local dodge dealership they can look up your vin# and print out everything your journey came with and they can also print out all the maintenance it has rec from any and all dodge dealerships since it was brand new, you can probable even do it yourself online if you google how to do it.... try this web site dont know if it works for Canada www.dodge.com
  13. well might as well change the left one out and hope that was it. check your power steering fluid level just to be safe. and seems like all the new posters are double posting their comments here lately...might be the blogs programming?
  14. so much info.....dark road and a match?
  15. well the good thing about your warranty the trans they just put in is also covered for as long as you own it, please find out what it would have cost you for not the warranty. also it should be covered for a period after you get it back if any problems with it without a ded. that is what they told me when i had to use mine for the oil pressure sender switch that went bad i think t was 2 yrs.
  16. i was trying to remember what the power train warranty was back in 2011 wasn't it 7 yrs 100 k ?
  17. great you have the max warranty guess you are free rolling on it now,how many miles are on your journey, I had my trans service done at about 70 k even tho i have the max warranty also just thought id do it. just turned 80 k on mine.take care.
  18. welcome to the group,hope you have many happy miles.....
  19. mostly caused from the trans trying to decided what gear it wants from what iv heard, happens once in a while to mine
