  1. the visors i have in my 2014 were the ones from my 2011 journey and they are weather tech. easy to put in and easy to take out no tape or glue used on the front visors,the rear visors are held in by tape and mine wouldn't stay in so i never used them.weather tech visors are the best. look sleek and last a long time. i see so many taped on or glued on ones that are broke and some of it still stuck around some of the window.
  2. just rechecked my sticker says my engine made in Mexico they also make them in Trenton Mi also trans come from USA. hope our journeys made on day shift at least.. and not on Fri or Sat. oh oh just checked they were built on a Monday (4/14) workers hung over and or Temps working......
  3. lol just checked my build date and it was on 4/14.... what are the odds of that or is that just a made up date they use......of course the engine manufacture date would be earlier due to transportation reasons and storage..
  4. run a couple of bottles of chevron gas treatment thur your gas tank before tearing anything apart. it keeps my truck running great as i dont drive it a lot it is what my mechanic recommended to do every 6 months or so worth a try....
  5. kind of like cleaning under your refrigerator for dust.oh well with the location of our batteries guess ill just have to chance it...thanks Jkeaton
  6. so whats the deal on spraying the tray with rubber coating, this is the second time hearing this is there something going on that i havent heard about?????
  7. dont think he rec a letter just read about one, sounds like his power train warranty taking care of him.
  8. so what was the issue? was the battery leaking?
  9. my aunt had a crown vic and didnt hardly drive it because she wanted it to last a long time well after 1 1/2 yrs it wouldn't start so she had it towed into the dealership and they laughed and told her you only have 900 miles on it. you have to drive it enough to keep it charged up or it will go bad LOL after that she drove it more often. i dont think that is what happened here but like i said i never had much luck with the org battery.if you have advance auto stores up there go on retailmenot.com and click on advance auto coupons you will get one worth $40. off anything over $105. i always get the best one cost about $130. with the 40 off drops it down to less than 100 and the last one i put in my truck was from there and that was about 6yrs ago...
  10. well on the 2011 you couldn't add the rear camera to your journey it was almost a yr later that it then became available to have it added and i had checked several dealers about the back up camera right after buying it....but that is history....
  11. ive never had great luck with the org batteries, replaced my 2011 just before i traded in for my 2014 crossroad it did have 60 k on it when it started going bad traded when it had about 70k... i wouldn't get it replaced at the dealership....
  12. yrs ago my dad had a clear bug deflector for a while and then wanted it to match his van so he cleaned it real good and then painted the back side of it and it looked great and the paint never chipped since it was on the back side....
  13. need more info like which light there is no fog lights on rear in the U.S. models maybe yours is different over there. this might help you http://www.paulstravelpictures.com/Articles/Dodge-Journey-Common-Problems-Repair-Maintenance-Guides.htm
  14. checking out all the led sets on ebay what is everyones idea on the fan leds vs the heat ribbon led with no fan??? also any one have problems with the led not fitting exactly as it looks like there is not alot of room on either side for the low beam bulbs. thanks for any info....
  15. well thats good but when i drive 100mph i usually have my windows up and the air on......LOL
  16. i always buy the weather tech, in channel kind, just looks a lot better and great quality.NOW that said dont buy the 4 window set as the rear window ones dont stay in the channel like the front ones do unless you glue or modified them i bought them and after a long trip cross country was only going about 20-30 mph i rolled the rear right window down a bout 4 -5 inches and whoop out it flew... oh well stop and got it but later on i just pulled the other one out. WOW just checked their price up there for you Canadians i only paid about $90 for the 4 window set and found out later could have got the fronts for just less then half of that. You guys get hosed on everything up there.....
  17. jkeaton what brand did you get and how long have you had them on. thanks
  18. my daughters 2011 tahoe tells you how much oil life is left but not our journeys, my 2014 has 6500 on this oil and the light hasn't come on yet i usually dont go past 7k on the changes but my old vehicles with syn oil i always went at least 10k before changing it and my daughter is still using it on her postal route with no problem.. after posting went outside and it was so nice i thought hell might as well change the oil so all set for another 6k i guess.....
  19. my 2014 had about 4k on it we went to las vegas from al and after being there a few days the locks quit working unless using a key or inside buttons took it to the local dealer next morning and they started working okay, just before the dealership opened so i left and got almost back to the casino and stopped to wash it got back in it and the air would work but only coming out the floor vents went back to the dealer and of course his mech for the ac was on vacation so made an appointment for a few days later and the next morning the air was working fine oh well i just chalked it up to computer software messing up, this last yr was coming back from our 2nd trip to vegas in it and noticed as i was heading east the evic was saying i was heading west LOL got out the manual head had to do a reset and everything started working okay again, anf then just a few days ago i shut the rear hatch door and the back up cam, air ,and radio quit working drove it home shut it off and removed the stuff from the rear and then tried starting it back up and everything works okay. car kind of acts like my computer does when it mess up just turn it off and give it a rest and everything starts back up oh well i love my Journey anyway.....
  20. have been following this and is it worth all the trouble and expense to switch.to be honest i do wish the lights were a little brighter but all this sounds like to much trouble and now shop vacs noise is being brought up.....LOL
