  1. thanks for the fed back it might help out the next journey owner having problems as your. never knew we had a sensor down there. man i am getting old and tired of all this new shit....
  2. was the backup cam a mopar installed option or aftermarket unit? can't understand why a battery protector kill switch was installed by the dealership as i would believe there are hundreds of thousands of journeys with back up cams that doesn't have this battery protector installed,. I hope this really does solve your problem and let us know as might be some help for other journey owners as well....
  3. should have bought the truck if that was important to you,all vehicles have different option and different components...it is not inferior just a different type of back up cam software and or parts..
  4. where is the battery temp sensor and how much is the cost? man just priced that $80 have never heard of this part before thought it was like a muffler bearing.....LOL
  5. if we only had a nickel for every time that one has been asked......
  6. www.nolo.com/legal-encyclopedia/lemon-law-used-cars-30107.html a few hurdles you have to jump thur before it can be taken processed being a lemon law case and of course it is proablly different in every state, give them time to try to fix it and keep all written paperwork and if they tell you something make them put it in writeing so you will have proof of what they have told you.....
  7. well this post had me thinking about my K&N air filter so thought id pull it and check it, it was a little dirty so i cleaned it the best i could and reinstalled it so i started looking over the whole engine and lo and behold the back end of the air tube from the filter box was hanging about 1 inch below the opining that it is supposed to be attached to, now that end of the tube is far back behind the engine and it is actually hard to get to. i know i have never touched it before i did have that oil sensor replaced about a yr ago so that is i guess the mech never got it back on right after working on it or it's been that way from new. i had to loosen the clamp to get it back on in fact i rubbed a little dawn dish soap on the rubber edge and the plastic lip to be able to get it attached correctly and then tighten the clamp back down tight. i'll be keeping an eye on it from now on. with the beauty cover on top of the engine it is real hard to see this clamp. didnt have no codes or anything like that and mpg was about the same so it was just because of this post and not being in a hurry and just giving the engine a good looking over that i caught it....
  8. do yourself a favor and go to harbor freight and buy you the 18 inch breaker bar with a 19mm socket , a lot easier to break them lug nuts loose with that then the wimpey wrench from the factory,catch them on sale and get both for less than $15. and use a coupon for a free gift to boot......
  9. watched the cleaning video so basically it's just a thicker K&N filter, let us know when you get it and what you think of it, not a bad price think i paid about the same for my K&N yrs ago , hell i might want to get one so when i clean and wash my K&N out i could throw that one in while mine is drying as it takes them a longggg time to dry and K&N says not to use compressed air on them....
  10. crazy how much the air filters are for our journeys, my daughters caravan filter was almost the same size and was about 1/3 the price of the journeys, i've bought the KN filter for my 2011 journey ran it for 70k and switched it to my 14 and have 72 k on it now havent had any problems yet using the oiled KN....knock on wood.... lol

    while you are at it make a youtube video of it also....
  12. well not to say this happened to your journey but vehicles do get damaged at the factory before they are shipped out, as i worked at the caravan plant in St. Louis mo for 2 yrs before i was able to retire. man some things happen it is hard to say WTF happened as they push the workers so hard. that said no telling what is going on with your journey and i hope you get it fixed and enjoy driving it.......
  13. so i guess you are still in warranty tho lack of mileage info. if so you probably can still buy a warranty it will cost you extra sice you didnt buy it right away.check out chryslerfactoryplans.com that is where i bought mine in 2014 on my crossroad i got the max mopar plan pricey but i plan on keeping it forever..... good luck
  14. well i would just return the led for a refund, installed led on my 14 no problem
  15. my daughter couple yrs ago called and said dad i think the transmission is going bad in my caravan she told me it was making a slight knocking noise and was jerking when trying to pick up speed while going down the road so i went out took it for a test drive and then lifted the hood and heard the noise she had 1 spark plug that had loosened up and that was all that was the problem so you never know what could be causing your problems....
  16. i did use used tires on my 2011 journey never had a problem with the abs system i believe it is the awd that have a problem with different tire sizes and or low -high tread on the tires. we have a local place that sells used tires and he sells them at a great price and gives a 90 day warranty on any problems with the tires, but the above tire business sells them as is without warranty on them after you have them mounted.....
  17. well just remember you hear from the upset or pissed off folks alot more than you do from thoes who are happy with their vehicle, the only problems i had with my 2011 was from the undersized brakes and rotors and false reading from the transmission, then i got my 2014 crossroad and have been tickled pink until about 45k and had a oil sensor started giving a false high pressure reading and that was fixed under my max mopar warranty and they treated me quite good on that....
  18. seems like a great price and they have 4 left in that size ,only problem i see with this company is that all the tires weather new or used is they are sold as is and once mounted and drove off the lot there is no warranty on them at all and if you rec them and decide you dont want them for any reason you have to pay the return shipping on them. so that is a no go for me, but hope they work out for you..........
  19. actually 235 55 19 you will be traveling 1mph faster than the speedo will show
  20. ? so did replacing the blown fuse make work or not
  21. first change the fuse then if still broken i would check the actual horn by running a wire from the battery and check to see if the horn is the problem before tearing onto the steering wheel good luck...
  22. that was the first thing i thought of also google wheel bearing noise video on youtube it will even show you how to determine which wheel it is ...
  23. make up some for sale ads and post on other journeys in parking lots when you see one also post them for sale down at your local gas station or dealership if they will let you. might try to sell them to a local car lot, good luck on the future sale
