all journeys as far as I have seen have the passenger front seat bin and also they all have the rear floor storage bins as well,,, actually haven't seen any Integrated Boosters on the second row seats but they were an option ,,,I had a 2011 main street,and now a 2014 crossroad,

I believe they were referring the 40 degree temp difference to the engine warming up from cold to hot,,,,not their temperature outside,,but yes heater core time either flush or replace,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,anyways replacing the thermostat will be a waste of time as drivers side is getting hot heat,so not a thermostat problem

if you are getting hot air on either side and cold on the other its either the blend doors OR the heater core as it has 2 different zones inside it,,good luck

water pump weep hole is one slow place,and the coolant jug and hoses for another, have you replaced the thermostat since having your problem? it is so easy to do and fairly cheap as well just replace with the right coolant,not so cheap but important,,,on your leak you need to see which side of the eng it is dripping from, if the oil cooler is leaking it will probably be dripping from the drivers side towards back side of the eng,,, also if the water pump it would be the passenger side of the eng,,,also SO easy to see if the oil cooler is leaking water or oil just remove the cover off the top of the engine and use a strong led light and look straight down alongside of your oil filter housing it should be clean and dry at the bottom of you see anything you might have a leak there

I guess she needs to take a vacation down south here and at that time find a place that can do all that for 1/3 rd the price, of course you get what you pay for so that is up to the opp to decide on what they want donelike I posted a before I wouldn't have no qualms on doing the cut and splice the heater core that would save me almost 2500 most expensive heater core on Amazon For Dodge Journey Heater Core 2009-2017 | Front | Aluminum | 5191347AC $72.86 of course local part stores would probably be a bit higher and less than $200 for the thermostat and coolant plus what ever the local shade tree mechanic that they might trust...HAVE to add if your estimate has stated on it that they just came back from Spain then they might have padded the bill a bit thinking they have some extra $$$$ to spend😆 as mentioned check out YouTube for more info on the cut and splice method and decide for yourself on what you want done good luck

I would suggest a different dealership more garage, but IF THE JOURNEY IS RUNNING FINE ACCORDING TO THE TEMP GAGE AND ALSO AROUND 199-210 TEMP IN THE INFO CENTER THEN THE PROBLEM IS YOUR HEATER CORE IS PLUGGED UP check out you tube for the short cut way to replace the heater core,,,,to replace the thermostat which cost around $20-50 depending on where you get it and then the proper coolant another $ 40-50 and then labor to clean and flush the system should be less than $200-250 total for all so yes they are way over charging you welcome back to the group

since it is not connected at both ends would lead me to say it was an after market device that was long ago taken out,maybe the dealership had put a tracking device on it and then removed it after the loan was paid off, no way for any of us to know for certain.anyways welcome to the group...

JUST look for the GREEN crusties, if you see any then you have the problem

5rebel9 is right on spot with cleaning and checking all the grounds as dodges are bad with them especially up north with all the salt they use,,,also I watch South main auto he is up in the New York area and this kind of problem is usually a wire corroded or broken causing a lot of different problems but mostly with the grounds at the frame and other spots

hmm I would dare to say its broken, other than that I would check into getting it serviced by a competent repair shop,or replace the cluster with a replacement from a used vehicle like lkq,,,good luck

Dealer called and said the camera just came in so I told him will be in later today if they weren't covered up and he said bring it on,so got there around !;30 and they got it in and back out to in about 1 hr just enough to look at some of the new vehicles, man have the prices shot up so high, don't see how they are selling them but he said actually sales have been good for this time of a yr he had just sold a new truck 82K ram 250 diesel loaded up as he said...Seen one of them hornet SUV didn't really think to much of it tho, our journeys look alot better than that thing

Well my rear camera has went bad again, I had it replaced about 3-4 yrs ago under my warranty and it started acting up again a week ago,right after I just had it in for the door lock switch on the drivers side.oh well kind of distracting trying to back up with the picture rolling horizontal on the screen.or the image flipped upside down or the screen going blank,both times it has been the camera unit itself that they have replaced I seen the OEM part listed on Mopar parts for $420. plus labor and yes I know you can buy the generic camera for a lot less which if I didn't have my $100 deductible I might have tried to replace it myself but going Thur the dealership is a lot easier for me to not have to fix it myself,,, I did report it to the ntsa website both times and maybe they will make dodge cover the repair as they are doing to some of the other car manufactures have been recently in the news of course with it being 10 yrs old and 167 k on it guess I cant complain,,,just glad I bought this unlimited yrs and mileage warranty when I did, way ahead of the game as of now... My local dealership has started a new repair service just bring it buy and they take a quick look at what they think it is and then( as they don't keep to many parts in stock now days ) they order the part and then call me when it comes in and tell me bring it in whenever I want and I can wait on it while it is being repaired, both times it has been less than an Hour or two for it to be fixed

Most people don't want to change out the belt tensioner,BUT it only makes sense to do that when they are putting on a new belt,but it only makes sense to install a new one,and yes they can be expensive

there are videos on you tube showing how to replace it without taking the top of the engine off..check them out

yes since there is no actually check on what condition of the oil is at. Its to easy NOT to reset it,haven't seen mine in so along as I usually do it between 5k and 6k

change out the thermostat first ,,easy to do and also the cheapest,make sure you use the right coolant as well the temp should be around 200-205 normal and go as high as 218-220 then cool back down

the cheap always comes out more expensive

try your local part store also found this on you tube.........

well all of a sudden my drivers door unlock switch started acting up not wanting to work you could hear the other doors trying to unlock but nothing from the drivers door, sometimes it would work after one or two pushes and when it did they all would unlock,tried cleaning the button with some contact leaner but no help there, did some research on aftermarket switches on Amazon very reasonable price but the reviews on longevity wasn't encouraging of course for 20-25 plus tax might have been worth it for some to try,,,cheapest OEM switch was around 160 with my 25% discount(retired chrysler employee) would have been around 120 plus tax,Sense I have my max Mopar warranty with just a 100 deductible only made sense to let them do it,ran by the dealership today and they verified it was the switch and ordered it and will be installed Monday... they are real easy to replace just pop them out with a plastic tool or I used the wife's bcbs medicare card...LOL and then just 2 connectors ,if I could have found a journey at a junkyard /salvage yard and got the part reasonable I would have done it myself,one reason I wanted to use OEM as it has lasted 10yrs of regular use so wasn't ready to gamble on the after market ones

2 inches of blue fluid showing on the oil dip stick, is to fluid I had marked mine ( 2014) yrs ago and 1 1/2 inch is the normal area for red fluid and also wrong color,

go on lkq or your local salvage yard for a used ptu unit,if its not a replaceable seal ,then that will be your only option I would assume

Have you tried your local dodge dealership part store?

no 2.7 v6 in the U.S. region only a 2.4 4cly is used here other than the 3.6 v6 engine ,sorry about that,maybe someone will know the answer for you

he should get into the abs module they are real hard to get new, I waited almost 2 yrs for mine from the dealership since it was a warranty issue and I could still drive it,,just got it fixed about 2-3 months ago

More likely a bad battery or loose dirty connections at the battery,if battery is more than 3 yrs old just replace it and then have the alt checked
