  1. Seems like you are the one doing all the crying and complaining about the extras, the radio is just fine for what i expect and paid for. just another satisfied journey owner here....
  2. nope, so how was the new battery installed wrong?and who installed it?what was the problems or codes before the new battery was changed? not enough info?
  3. i was told when i bought my mopar extended warranty that if refurbished parts were available they would be used first and then he said that most of the time they are not available but hey i have the lifetime and unlimited mile warranty anyway. also when a dealership uses their parts you always get a 12 month/12k warranty on the parts anyway.
  4. dont really know what to say that wont make me sound like i am being rude? I am really surprised the dealer actual changed out your camera. just took my journey out and compared my backup view and looks about like yours first 2 pics, never had a concern about it, i do admit the last pic from your ford looks a little better they just condensed the lines and added a center line a little bigger but all three pics show you where you are backing up into... the one thing i don't like is when you first start up you go thur the warning and if you put it into rev right away you have to pause about 10 seconds for the camera to come on I don't like the pause
  5. well you have a belt tensioner that might be going bad as when you first start up its cold and stiff and after a little bit it has warmed up and loosened up a bit. also the serpentine belt last about 60k to whenever but the belt might be glazed and causing some noise till it gets warm. if it bothers you enough concern take it to a repair shop or dealership. also i've always replaced the tensioner when ever i replaced the serpentine belt ,a lot of people don't but it is recommended to do that.
  6. my daughter 2007 caravan front power outlet quit working but the back one still worked couldn't find any blown switches so i put in a new one and it worked for a while then it quit and still no blown fuses but when checking for power with a meter nothing was there, as she uses this for a mail vehicle i just ran a new wire to the battery and put in a new inline fuse and she hasn't had any more problems, oh well it works.
  7. dhh3 is right as my rear wasn't working this morning but the fronts were and the temp was only 28 f. i have been using summer fluid but last time added i used winter fluid but the plastic tank is big enough that it was diluted so the rear still froze up a bit. it started working latter in the day will have to go to the auto store and pick up some concentrated fluid to keep it from freezing up again. might be your problem as well...
  8. what is your temp last nite, look for lines unplugged and or wet spots under car after cycling the switch several times, need more info as what is going on...
  9. so is the new auto switch only needed for the lights to be on when the key is turned on and off or does it need the new sensor also, i might fool with all this if all i have to do is add the new light switch?
  10. need to pick up a case of beer on the way for him.....
  11. How long do the tpm last? and why did you replace all 4 so soon. my 2011 were still reading good even after i replaced the tires at 6ok and 3 yrs. when i traded it in on my 2014 crossroad..
  12. after i had heated seats put in sometimes i feel a slight movement and a click one time then it doesn't do it again for a while,not enough for me to complain about it..
  13. yes it was a small black plastic component on top of the motor not sure what it was and this was an 1989 truck so things have changed take it to a good mech. so many things it could be.
  14. well thinking back to my 1989 dodge truck was having a similar problem changed out the battery due to age still intermittent starting problem took it into the dodge dealership they finally said it was a starter problem so about $200, for that fix worked for a while then started the intermittent starting problem so they changed out the starter again their dime and called and said it was ready to pick it up and wouldnt start walked back inside they went and looked at it again and then said it was a small electrical component ( might have been the solenoid) on top of the engine cost about $5. mech looked at the manager and said well we wont charged him for this are we and the manager made me pay him the $5. lol but never had any more problems with it. but EVEN dealers make wrong guess as to what is the real problem and they deal with it all the time.TAKE it to a dealership or a good electrical mechanic might be cheaper and safer in the long run instead of the shotgun approach....
  15. glad i bought my mopar unlimited yrs and mileage warranty on my 2014 plan on running it to death, things get awfully expensive to repair on these new cars........ P S. good luck and have a Merry Christmas to everyone
  16. my 2011 journeys battery started going bad after about 3 yrs put in a new one just before i traded in for my 2014 crossroad journey so it can happen..
  17. well since you blame us for trying to guess what your problem is..i have a great idea try taking it to your trusted mechanic and let him drive drive it for a few days and or let him fix it for you after he does his diagnosis. sorry if this sounds rude but we have limited knowledge of your history of your car and now you complain of our ideas? also replacing a 5yrold battery is not a waste of money.
  18. https://www.youtube.com/watchHad to gogggle pink thinging fix lol
  19. looks great,yrs ago like {30}i had a old chevy stepside painted gloss white it looked good happened to stop by a trim shop and he had a deal for about $350/ to put shaded stripes down the hood and sides light gray, dark gray, black man did it make that truck pop everyone was trying to buy it from me... lol wish i never had let it go.
  20. take car to a parts store and have a load test done on the battery. if its org battery you need a new one...
  21. i would check with dodge dealership as i would see no problem doing that as it is front wheel drive only. But as i said check with your dealer to be sure
