that is what your manual says,but the dealer i use bugs the hell out of me sending me emails and when i take it in for the free oil changes they put the little sticker on the windshield with the next oil change listed at 3500 miles. its up to you to decide when you want to take it in your choice. ive just switched over to syn. oil so ill be going longer between the changes now. happy trails

other than my self who has went to their journey to go some where and try to open the door only to find out you left the keys in the house, LOL i have got so use to not haveing to have the keys in your hand to start it that i dont pay any attention to where they are.or you set them down in the car and then try to lock it only to have the car beep at you to let you know you have left your keys inside. oh well thats progress i guess

are you still in warranty,guess not if your trying to fix it yourself. good luck and let us know if you get it fixed..

check your manual, it should tell you how to lock your car without the horn beeping once.on my 2011 you have to use the on board instruction thur the 8.4 screen to turn it on or off. act i like to hear it beep so i know i did it, but then thats my own thing. also if you had to ask the dealer they wouldnt charge you as the service rep would or should show you how to do it since it is still within warranty. good luck

just got back from a trip out to vegas from al about 2k each way. at home in al i can put in as much as i can and the trip est. says that i can go about 480 miles or so when i was out in new mexico and las vegas and would show as high as 560 miles before empty. wonder if it has something to do with the elavation or the pressure inside the tank. well not enough of a problem to lose sleep over but it is wierd as this seems to be the only car that ive ever had problem with. my daughter had a 2008 wrangler x that she had problem filling with gas and just before she got rid of it jeep did a recall and replaced the tank or filler tube not sure which they did but it fixed the problem.

i am assuming all of you having this problem are all wheel drive vs just front wheel drive versions.

just got back from a 2month,5200 mile trip from alabama to las vegas and took the long way home thur kansas and missouri and kentucky. no problems with the journey and avg. 23-24 going out to vegas due to the wind and elavation and on the way back got about 28-30 till i got into kentucky then started avging about 23-24 again. of course this was driving interstate rds.doing about 75mph. seen alot of great country side and almost got a ticket in texas after stopping in a small town for a dairy queen and started back off and didnt realize i was doing 45mph in a 30 mph zone,with the car rideing so smooth and with the pentastar engine so strong it is easy to get a ticket lucky the city cop took it easy on me and said to slow it down,(WHEW) noticed when you are going into a speed zone and you cut off the cruise control the car just seems to coast along without slowing down like my other vans did,guess that is the 6 speed tranny doing its thing have to be carefull going into small towns that have speed zones from 65 to 30 in a short distance. i did have my brakes rotors checked when the car had about 10k and the dealer turned them and i do seem to notice that with about 27k on the speedo i am starting to notice a slight shuddering again when brakeing from a high speed or going down steep hills so will have to have the dealer take a look at the rotors again think ill tell them that if they need turning again to see if chrysler will replace them as it would be the 2nd time to be turned, other then hat i have been well pleased my my 2011 mainstreet and would recomened this car to anyone that is thinking of getting one.

my 2004 caravan had a similer noise for a long time could never find it and it kept getting louder and i finnally found it was a bar behind the engine that had bushings on both ends and right side i dont think was tightened up tight enough at the factory and the rubber bushing had sliped out of the bolts that held it. of course it was on sunday and i had to drive about 300 miles to get back to work so i was able to lube it up a little and got it baack in and then tightend the hell out of it the other side was fine . solved the problem good luck

i always use Wagner thermo-quiet pads they cost about $60.00 and when replacing rotors have always used advance auto cheapest rotors with all my past 4 grand caravans and never had any problems with the rotors giving me any problems( i would believe the grands and journeys weight about the same or close) and first brake job i would do unless having any problems with rotors i wouldnt even turn or replace the rotors and then the next brake job i replace the rotors. dodge must be using sub standard rotors becuse ive i had to have mine turned by the dealer at about 10k and have 21 k on them now and somtimes i am feeling a slight pluse in the streeing and brake pedal when you have to slow down fast at hwy speeds. i am going on a 5k rd trip and wondering if they will get worse by the time i get back.dont know if i will take it back to the dealer or replace the brakes and rotors my self and see if that takes care of it.

www.retailmenot.com/coupons/auto is the correct web site works real good in the U.S. not sure about Canada but you get the codes than order online .i only use it for advance auto stores and then go pick it up right after ordering online i just got a new battery for my truck for $68. tax inculded was a 3yr free replacement 8 yr battery. store price was $110. man i feel like a shill for them but hey it saves me alot of money, i do my daughters vans brakes for her she delevers the mail and her brakes only last her 5k miles LOL her oil last longer than that so i get alot of parts there.Theauto zone codes dont really save you much. hope this helps

in between waxing i use turtle wax ultra gloss detailer with a micro fiber cloth and man does it help remove dust and leave a real slick finnish i even use it on the windows indside and out . doing the rear hatch i set the bottle up by the attenna while i did the back and then did that area next and then went to set it back in the same spot and ir kept sliding off the top LOL now that is slick.

i had tohave my front rotors turned on my 2011 at about 10 k and have about 21k on it now and i can feel a little shudder when stopping or hitting the brakes at high speed but when reg driving around town i dont feel no shudder at all when stopping,leaving on a trip to vegas and that will add about 5k more and might have to take it back in to the dealer before the warrenty runs out. see what they will do dont want them to be turned again as i think that is part of the problem even being new as they make them to thin now days. if i have a problem and the dealer doesnt want to do anything about it ill just do my own brake job and put on new rotors as i dont have them turned anymore as new ones are usally not that expensive (but that might not be the case on this new of a car). i did my daughters 2007 caravan last week for her and the rotors were only$35. a piece plus brakes and got a $20. discount code off retailme.com for advance auto so her rotors only cost about 25. each and to turn them would have cost at least $10 to 15 each

i was replying to MWG post not yours he says he is adding 3 liters of oil in-between oil changes. yes i read your post also ????

LOL how much are you paying for a quart of oil syn oil is only about $6.25 and buy a 5 quart jug for any where from $ 20. to $26. for mobil 1 3 times $6.25=$18.75 which i do agree you do have a problem as you shouldnt lose no more than a quart at most, hope you can get some help from chrysler about your problem

yes thank you

take a chill pill , and quit looking for something to complain about. GET A LIFE

yes maybee on the 2012 but 2011 and earlier still having some problems, had to have my front rotors turned at 10k so far no more problems at 21k but going on a long trip to vegas next week for 2 months will see if all goes well. will get my last oil change out there and try to have them use syn. oil my regular dealer didnt have none in stock last oil change may have to but some and see if they give me 5 quarts of reg oil in exchange for me getting the syn for them.

i agree with with moparman also you have 7yr 100 mile warrenty on powertrain thur chyrsler and if any questions with who would cover problem would be between chrysler or dealer as you have documented this occurance. wouldnt worry about it any more unless you hear it aain. also liked the idea of dash cam and recorder, why do you have it for work or what?

brake problems will NOT cause uneven wear on your tires ,no way. it is either the front end problems or just a tire problem .

i know this make you mad , but you really need to get a life, this is metal parts exposed to the weather elements

as soon as i got mt 2011 mainstreet i removed the dealers name and all the dodge crap on the back hatch,was easy use some bumper sticker remover (auto parts sell it) and gentley lift the edge of what ever you are wanting to remove. makes washing and waxing alot easier. of course my wife got mad oh well!! lol

dont know about the new ones but older dodge cars you could turn the key on and off 3 times and then wait and it would check the computer to see if you had any codes for any problems you might have for the car like a spark plug and which one it was.was real helpfull to point you in the real direction. would guess you wlll need a machine to check for what you want .or take your vin # to the dealer for them to pull up the info on your car when it was built.. good luck

had to do the same thing on my 2004 van drilled the 2 holes and put on my lic. plate never had a flapping noise from it, tighten up thoes screws till they are tight. should solve the problem

my dealership wants about $24 for a filter and havent been able to find a reg filter at the local auto stores for my 2011 mainstreet , so i broke down and bought a k-n filter also. same as destination above said at least after 2 filter changes it will be paid for got mine thur auto anything online for $42. have had one on my 2001 truck with no problems and i already have the cleaner and oil refill left over .so i went with k-n.

found a great deal on parts and other things called http://www.retailmenot.com/coupons/auto, you can get discount coupons at this web site and i have been using them the last 6 months for auto parts using the advance auto web site.just brouse the coupons you want dont forget to look under the name where it says more coupons or deals. then get the code and then go to the website you want and use it. i have only used the advance auto codes but they worked ok both times. i got $20 off purchase over $50. for my daughters brakes on her van she does post office route in the country so have to replace them every 6 months or about 5ooo miles.i just get the codes then go to advance auto web site order the pads and enter the codes and get 20 of the the 60.00 and pay with a credit card and then i go pick them up from the local store about an half hour later. they will also ship to you but i live close to the store. great way to save money.also i alwayd get the wagner thermo-quiet pads and advance will replace them free one time when they are wore out, bought her first set from O"reillys part store but they said they wouldnt do the free replacement so started using advance from then on. also wagner had a rebate going on till 4-30-2012 for $10. so i will get this set for about $34. and then get the next set free so brings the 2 sets down to about $17.00 each brake pad change ,cant beat that deal.ill get off my soap box but thought id spread the word about the deals. dont know if they work up in canada or if you have advance auto up there but they are real good to work with.
