yes i did ask journeyman425 for help as had others and he said that the sales code cant be added for the drl for some reason and that is why i was asking DodgeCare if he could help US members out that had 2014 journeys be able to get them installed and for aftermarket addons i would rather keep my dodge all OME. but my main question is why DodgeCare wont or cant help on this subject,as i said before DodgeCaCare was wondering the same thing since he was from Canada he couldnt help.

havent notice it mine but now thanks to you ill be looking for it...LOL just went out checked mine and dont see no bar code but towards the top i see a little oval shape kind of dark colored .i have the auto dimming rear view mirror so i would assume that is for the mirror to work ... lets us know what you find out....

bolt probaly came from the factory with no nut or not torque and back out.which seems hard to believe as they should have been using a electric wrench that records that that nut had been tightened to a certin toruqe at that work place on the assy line. as for the rotors i would not go back to the dealer but go after market rotors as you van do that with no problem check out u tube for some info.. good luck

i would listen to aukfan33, unless your a great mech.

might want to check and see what your warranty would cover since your still in the 5yr/100k.. good luck DANG i just went outside and pulled the engine cover off and i couldnt find anything that looked like plug wires or spark plugs. WOW they really have them hid good...good luck on what ever you do and let us know what happens.....

well excuse me, i have checked with several dealers and no one seems to know why we cant add drls to our journeys and as i have mentioned before on my 2011 and my 2014 i wanted to add the rear back up cam to them and for 2 yrs on the 2011 all the dealers said it couldnt be done but as we know it can be done with mopar parts so when my dealer told me I couldnt add the back up cam on my 2014 i told yes you can and showed them the web site for mopar and the part # for it and told them You had just 4 months ago put it on my 2011 mainstreet he then said oh well i guess we can. and i think have a great dealer so its not really all their fault i think dodge could do a better job on letting dealers know on whats new or options on dealer add ons. WE all know how many problems EVERYONE has had about drl sales codes and also with the trailer lights sales code.SO i an just wondering why dodgecare hasnt weighed in on this as he has posted on other subjects since i have posted and pm him. just wanting a little info weather it be helpfull or not helpfull thats all.and for your post i have tried to help other members out and i have checked with other dealers so ive done my 15 minutes of checking.So i dont need to you getting smart azz with your post, as if this one my first time posting or trying to help out other members

just a note every time i have work done on my or my daughters van that the wheels have to be removed i always loosen the lug nuts and then retourqe them with my tourqe wrench to 100 alot of dealers use a impact wrench and over tighten the lugs and with the stop an go that my daughter does with her mail route after a while the lugs seem to tighten up more but if i retorqe them i never have a problem getting them off my self.

not sure if this helps but my daughters 2007 caravan coil pack went bad causing alot of problems so it got replaced by a mech. and ran fine for about a week them went bad again and on my sugg she took it back to the dealership and after a week and a full tune up wires,plugs and whatever about $700. they said it is fixed about a week later went bad again took it back to a different mech he replaced the coil pack again and the next day it was messing up again so she took it back again and by then it was running ok the mech said leave it with me and tried starting it several times with no problems so he started flexing the wires leading to the coil pack and it started to mess up well the problem was inside the connector on the wire that connects to the coil pack so he replaced it and problem was fixed. so check your wireing going to whatever you are having a problem with.. years ago had the same problem with a connector going to a electric fan in front of the rad. so dont get so fixed on a problem that you cant see anything else that might be the problem good luck

well i ve been waiting for a couple of weeks waiting on dodge care ive pm him twice and started 2 different post he or she seems to not want to answer the question. dodgeCaCAres answered right away but since he is from canada he couldnt help. still waiting on dodgecare or maybee dodgedoesntcare well see.......

i called my sales friend at my dealership about warranty info and he said under the reg 3/36k they dont have to provide a rental car but if you have a extended warranty they do provide a rental. when i asked why i was provided one when my 2011 went in for some body work from the factory he said we take care of our cust. so they will come back....guess thats why i have bought from them the last 15 yrs.... good luck

on journeys i have no clue but on my daughters 2009 caravan real easy but there is only one on hers.... are there more on journeys?

no problems just get the stud replaced and remember wheel nuts are about 95-100 ft pounds buy a tourqe wrench as at 95-100 is not as tight as you would expect, you are over torqueing and risk warping your rotors.....

still waiting dodge cares?

look in your owners manual i believe it says if the covered repair takes overnite they will provide a rental during your repair. check it out or google it....

my 2011 mainstreet with 17 inch kumos had about 60 k on them when i put on some takeoffs from a tire store in my area and drove it till about 70k before i traded it for my 14 crossroad with 19 inch with kumos hope i get the same wear and ride out of these as i did my other one as i was well pleased with them... rotate and rotate them babies as with all tires.. my only concern with the 19 inch tires is the cost to replace them when the time comes..

looks like time to buy some new tires for you. you realize that a tire is a wear item and with 30 k on them no way would they be covered. now if after you had bought a tire warranty from kumo then you could file a claim with them but still dont think you would get them to help you much with that milage on them......

how come the 2014 journey owners that bought off the lot cant get or get any answers as to why our drl cant be turned on thur local dealers???? prior yrs of journey owners could get the sales code entered and then get the drl turned on but what about us that the dealers say they dont know how to do it...... any help dodge care i have sent 2 pms to you and havent got no responce even DodgeCaCares was wondering why you havent helped here on this....HELP

thanks dodgeCAcares didnt know there was two reps on here.

my 2011 mainstreet had a little problem with the cruise control buttons sometimes seam like they didnt work but if i pushed a little harder i would feel it make contact and then they would work, dont think it was me as my 2014 crossroad cruise works alot easier so i think it was the buttons . might want to check that out as well good luck..............

i did my 2011 and didnt have no problems, hope you get it fixed. but check your pins and grease them as that has been suggested but as for using a anti-noise compound with wagner pads according to the paperwork that comes with the pads they say that will void their warranty dont know why but i use wagner all the time and have never used the compound and never had any problems with them good luck and report back..

how about checking into why us 2014 journey owners that bought cars off the lot that the dealer didnt order the drl lights, and all the dealers dont seem to know if we can get them turned on? up untill 2013 they could add the sales code and then get them turned on,most dealers had to be told how to do it, but the 2014 cant be done the same way. we have the option thur our 8.4 to do it but not the sales code for U.S. i been told it can still be done like that for the Canada owners. Woiuld really like to get them turned on mine so the wife will quit nagging me about it, and as we all know a happy wife makes a happy life... thanks for any help...................... P.S. as a example my dealer said he coudnt put a rear back up cam on my 2014 untiil i should him the web site for the mopar accs. and it said that it was aval. for the 2014 crossroads and as he at first said it couldnt be done i told him it was the same cam that they had just installed on my 2011 just about 4 months earlier.

yes by the dealer or aftermarket. check into it

sounds like a trip to the dealer,sorry about your problem

welcome to the blog, lots of great info here.feel free to chime in and also let us know what kind of journey you got,,,

take it in quick and make sure you get it on paperwork, since it bothers you. i would have took it back in sooner. yrs ago i was at the end of my 36k warr. and was noticing i was losing antifreeze so i took it in to the dealer and they did a pressure test (at least they said they did) and no leak well that weekend i drove it back to where i lived about 300 mile drive and the next day noticed it was down again so took it to a different dealer and they said well your water pump is leaking and you are past your 36 k warr. and would cost me around $500 in parts and labor so i said um well here is some paperwork from last week while still in warr. and they looked at it and said no problem its covered. i guess the first dealer never put his pressure check into the computer because the 2nd dealer said they could not find no such vist, always get paperwork...............
