Ice building up in corner of front inside door
2late4u replied to journeygirl2014's topic in Interior
i would take it to a different dealer the next time it builds up so they can see the problem and tell them your past problem with it... -
make sure after they fix it that they also repaired the metal that was rubbing against each other or you will end up with some possible rust problems later on. happy trails

both of my journeys rear seats 2011 and my current 2014 rear seats were hard to move from the outside but they moved a lot easier if i sat in one and then tried to move it.also i hardly ever move them so i really don't have a problem with them...I also agree with jkeaton.

2011 Journey - Do I give it back or keep it?
2late4u replied to Draver17's topic in Owner Impressions
no its not wore out, on your next vech. i would rec buying a extended warranty as cars are getting so complicated and expensive to fix and since you know you drive more than the normal person. i was in your situation just last yr except i wasn't having any real problems with my 2011 mainstreet with 70k but traded it in for my 2014 crossroad but before i hit 12k in just 8 months i bought a lifetime max oem warranty unlimited yrs and milage and only cost about 2200 $$ with a 100 deductible per visit. if i had bought it on my mainstreet i would have kept it... check out the forums on this site about where to buy online for half the price you would pay at the dealership.. good luck on your decision -

2011 Journey - Do I give it back or keep it?
2late4u replied to Draver17's topic in Owner Impressions
trade it in on a 2015 4k rebates and dealers are really wanting to get them back. thats what i did and came out real good on the trade and i also purchased a lifetime yrs and milage contract over the internet a a great price...... -
just a thought but depends on how you think.. before you have adjuster file the claim take some rubbing compound and go to work on it and then wax and then decided if you want to file a claim remember replacing the bumper skin will not be cheap and then its a claim on your ins record and might make your rates to go up.. any damage you cant remove put a bumper sticker on top of.......take care

yrs ago just bought a dodge grand caravan and wife and i go to kmart for something and i happen to park 5-10 parking spots away from all the other cars go inside about half hour later we come out and someone had drag a key or screwdriver down the whole side of the van . of course no witness or any thing..some people just hate to see some one with more then they have.....p.S. you might be able to buff most of that out looks most like paint from his vehicle sorry for your heartache.....

i have fwd only and was driving in some real bad ice and sleet last week and was going about 40mph and for the first time the wheels started to slip and the traction control kicked in and the light came on seamed really weird for me and wasn't sure what was happening to the journey so i reached over and pushed the button to disengage the traction unit and had no more problem. so i tried it again and the same thing happened and so i disengaged it again. now this is the first vehicle i've had that had this option and to be honest i really didn't think much of it,seemed to be more trouble than it helped. but as i lived in the north and was use to driving rear wheel drive in the winter then started using fwd for the last 20 yrs, i wouldn't buy a awd vehicle for myself....

only single ding i get is when the gas is getting low but your low fuel light would come on. possibly are you real low on gas?

all par says.. on vehicles built after 1995 are warranted for eight years or 80,000 miles.in the U.S. couldnt find anything for canada...check your books that came with your car there should be a pamplet just about the catalytic converter and the related parts and how long the coverage is...that can be a hard code to get rid of it can be alot of different things causing it. google the code # and read up on it.

Rotors might be gone, but check the pictures
2late4u replied to Marius's topic in Brake, Chassis & Suspension
that is one reason i buy my parts from the local parts store so if they sell me the wrong stuff it can be fixed right away i know its a little cheaper over the internet. but id rather not have the mix up.. good luck on your journey...... -
LOL i bought front and rear pads for my 2011 and did the rears but had planned on doing the fronts later on when they needed it and then ended up trading in on my 2014 and now i have some wagner thermoquiet pads that i got a rebate on and dont know if advance would do a return on them.........oh well thats what i get for planning ahead maybe they will take them back have to ask..

raise your tire pressure to about 36 psi cold and will help get a little better mpg as when they get hot it will raise to about 38-39 psi that is what i ran in my 2011 with 17 inch tires and got 70k out of them tires and still running the same in my 2014 19 inch tires and just turned 15 k and they still look great....

in al. if they are uninsured and at fault in the acc. when its time for them to get a new drivers lic. they have to make good on what they owe before they can renew it. i got hit by one and my insurance fixed my car and a couple of yrs later allstate sent sent a check for my $500, deductible that she had to pay. of course i don't know if she made a full repayment to allstate for the whole cost that they paid to fix my van... also my insurance rate did go up because they paid out on my claim for my car and i dint get that back guess allstate left me in their good hands for that ....

well took my journey in for the oil change and had printed out a copy of how jm425 said for the dealer to flash the car, and later on the service manager comes up and says sorry we cant get the drl to work and then even went on to say the mechanic looked at my settings in my car and said that there wasn't even a selection for the drls listed.WTF i said yes there is and that they are turned on because i had checked that this morning before i brought it in,and then he continues to say they is nothing listed in the settings to turn the drls on or off, so i turn to my sales person that i was talking to and then turned back to the manager and said i would bet him the cost of what a 2015 crossroad would be on that statement as i KNOW that they are turned on and they are listed in the settings in the journey. well he backed off that statement and i went with him back to the service dept and about that time he wanted to read what i had printed off from the blog on what he had to do to turn them on and about that time a different mechanic walks up and says to him give me his paperwork and let me do the reflash i know what to do.. about 10 min later i am talking to the salesman again and here comes the service manager again and says your car is fixed and i asked do the drls work and he says yes and turns around and leaves without saying one word then the salesman starts apologizing for the way the service manger had just talked to me , i said oh well its the dealership that will lose customers with someone acting like that. as i have been buying cars from the same sales person for at least 15 years... well when they send me the letter asking me how i was treated they will get a bad review for this last service call. BUT a big thank you to journeyman425 for all his help on this issue. thanks again jm425 P.S. this dodge dealership has always had the best service department for as long as i can remember but about 2yrs ago they moved to a new and bigger location and the original service manger left for what ever the reason and this new one is starting to ruin their reputation it is a shame ........
