i have always known most dealerships charge different amounts for parts and labor ,so i am getting close to having my plugs changed in my 3.6 i have about 80 k on it now ( 100 k is suggested) and since it looks a little more than i want to do i started pricing the cost from a couple of dealerships first one was a dealership closest to me and they wanted $425. then i called my dealership that i normally use which is about twice the distance than the other dealership and they wanted $225 for it and i asked about doing the coolant flush ( 150 k is suggested) and they want $125 so think i will have them both done at the same time, at least with them doing it ill have it on record that it was done.. Just thought id put the reminder out their to price check your dealerships before you have anything done. Take care all

always asking for help but most never report back after they get theirs fixed to help others out.

welcome to the group, lot of good info here,

bad thing is we had two post about same problems but are old post BUT they never bothered to respond with their fix to it. SO no help for other readers. oh well. it could be the radio or the screen or needing new software update,or maybe just a loose connection, really the only way to know for surer is an elect. tech to check it out otherwise your just replacing parts hoping you get the bad part replaced first. after the fix PLEASE respond with what you find out

why not have a tow truck come move it less than $ 60-100, for the tow to his house or yours, better than trying to hack up the wiring. i assume you have access to the inside of the journey so disconnect the battery if your worried about the alarm

take it back and make them hear it and get it down on paperwork in case it goes bad after your warranty over.

also check all your cables at the battery also make sure clean and tight, also check starter ground at frame and all connections,if you replace the starter make sure you use a good quality one or go mopar parts ,i know cost more but built to a better quality yrs ago my dad had a problems using aftermarket alternators , ended up they didnt work well with dodge vech, he had the dealership put on a mopar alt and no more problems..

welcome

hmm,maple syrup.... yum......welcome to the group....

Just another great reason i stay away from awd,fwd is all iv ever needed

sounds like trans problem to me but i am not a mech. yes cars can have trans problems with even less than yours, stuff happens, you will be lucky if a transmission shop will work on it as most wont fool with the newer 6 and 8 speeds yet good luck and keep us informed....

looks good

look under the car, plus it is bad to sign paperwork on a new car without seeing it first ,taking it for a test drive.and giving it a good once over inspection....

well keep going back till they get it right, keep track of your paperwork and try to keep a good attitude as a good working relationship gets things done better than an adversarial one, i know it can be frustrating thing trying to get a problem fixed right the first time, but do remember that cars are getting harder and harder to work on these days with all the electronic gremlins that they seem to contain...

contact the maker of your scanner and ask advice from them,i would return it if possible and as Armando suggest take it to your local parts store for a free scan..

use to work on the old tube tvs,, at least for a while.....

sorry about double post site was acting up i guess...LOL

might go away after a few days of starting and stopping and if the journey is running okay,also you could run by a your local auto shop they have scanners and might be able to reset it for you.good luck and keep us informed.

yes i would assume it should be covered but they will tell you before doing anything you could always call and ask just to see first.

i believe if you add led hi beams they will be on full strength for the dlr,all the time. i wouldn't recommend it.

actually yrs ago with my caravan i had a episode with a cruise control not disengaging after stepping on the brake pedal was kind of scary as of course i was coming up behind another car but mine disengaged by simply shutting off the unit whit the cancel button. I had just that day picked the van up from the dealership where they had worked on the transmission and after looking at the van they latter called and said the van is fixed that it was the brake pedal switch that had gone bad, i kept asking about it as i had just picked it up from the dealership and that it was working before they had it and it wasn't after they gave it back to me ,they kept saying they didnt do anything to have damaged the brake switch disconnect but i had a hard time coming around to their way of thinking. But is was a scary thing to happen and was lucky to have been able to just hit the cancel button.......

so true about being warned, do what every you want it is your journey i would not be afraid to use it.good luck on what ever you decide...

yes evidently the fix has not been disclosed to us here at the forum. people come with problems but a lot of one time posters after getting the problem solved dont bother to report back on what happened and how it got resolved, thus leaving others who develop the same problem with no idea on how to fix it. so please share with our readers on what happens to your vec... thanks in advance and good luck.....

well you have the code and it called a generic code for the evap system, you can try replacing parts using the shotgun method or have a trained mechanic check it out for you, online we cant say exactly what is the problem as this is a generic code, could be a lot of things. good luck

if i remember right they have had only happen one time so far from what i read...
