to be honest i had in the past always over torque the lug nuts since i didnt have a torque wrench, so finally broke down and bought one and always use it to do the lugs at 100 and have never had a problem since removing the nuts go to harbor freight or your local part store and pick one what,,,,, also NEVER use a ratchet and a cheater pipe,, i have always bought the 19 mm socket and a 24 inch breaker bar and that is more than you need to remove the lug nuts,,,so easy as well harbor freight for both of thoes as well .... LOL ,,,,i do not work or sponsored by harbor freight as well

might be a stupid question but did you bleed the air out of the system? also what are the symptoms? using coolant,overheating,code for the thermostat,

seen this video on a leaking power steering hose, also this guy makes great videos on all different cars...........

so much info and nothing on why you took it to the garage for the work, and then had problems after the work was done....... also mileage would be helpful.....i assume the garage is not a dodge dealership as well.wouldn't be the battery if it has enough juice to start it and what about the alt. has it been checked to see if it is putting out enough juice to keep the battery charged? and as far as the throttle body how did they check it? good luck but i would take it to the dealership yes more expensive but more experienced mechanics there...good luck and let us know what the cause is

true story on my journey around 2 yrs ago i had just got back from discount tire after having the tires rotated and balanced and i thought well i wanted to clean the back side of the rims real good and went to loosen the lugs with my socket and 20 inch bar, and Dam the socket would not fit over 2 of the lugs, i thought WTF and went to check the other tire and 3 of them the socket would not fit and then checked the other side and on each rim there was 2-3 nuts as well deformed... so i called the tire shop which is around a 25 mile drive from my house and asked to talk to the manger and told him about the socket not fitting over the lugnuts and he starts telling me well its them 2 pcs lug nuts that are the problem and not his service center, and i said whoa wait a minute before i came there i had no problem with the lug nuts being deformed but after this visit i have at least 2-3 nut on each wheel deformed and unable to remove them myself and it was to much of a coincidence that they all went bad after the last trip to his store, and he said since i was a loyal customer as well and if i would drive it back he would put on a new set of solid lug nuts at half price so i ended up paying around $20 for a complete set which was cheaper than you can get them off amazon as well,,, i believe his mechanic must have used an oversized socket ( 19.5 instead of a 19 mm) to loosen them or tightened them as well with the air gun...oh well it ended up being okay, just killed the rest of my day waiting to get everything taken care of,,,just glad i noticed the problem right away tho

but since the hand touch sensor seems to be the only thing not working it could just be the wires that are disabling it to work and the key fob is still working as well,, but i am not sure on all this but that would be where i would look first

Guess it could be But since the key fob unlocks the door lock BUT the hand touch doesn't would lead me to think the wires at the handle are the most likely culprit

5rebel9 has replied to what i would also believe is to be your problem

thank you for taking the time to reply on your fix, for others that may need to know

Our journeys love a strong battery and will act crazy with a weak or bad battery,just charging it is not enough ,take it to be load tested at your local part store and also have them check the alt to make sure it is charging enough...also have them scan it for any codes that might have been stored as well Welcome to the group as well

do a reverse flush to break it all loose

i believe it just slides on BUT not for sure, maybe John who would know for sure will see this today he comes on here quite a bit...good luck

my father had a rear side window in his caravan blow out yrs ago he thought someone had shot it with a bb gun,but the glas place said when a window is under stress and explodes the glass will always be thrown outwards unlike when hit from something then it goes inward as well,,,,LOL i have no idea on that but that is what he was told and it made him feel better that it wasnt done on purpose

sounds like your heater core is plugging up for the right side, ( it is a 2 zone core) you could try to reverse flush the core, or just replace it but if you do replace it make sure you flush your system first and also did you USE the correct antifreeze when topping it off...check youtube for the quick way to replace the heater core

same as mine i replaced thar part of the hose with the reg rubber hose didnt need any connectors

i would first disconnect the line going to the front washers to see if you have weak pressure there if not then the washer nozzles are pluging up, if the flow is weak then i would try flushing out the washer bottle itself either by removing it or buy you a cheap fluid pump from harbor freight and remove the fluid and then refill the bottle several times to see if that helps with the pressure.. plenty of videos on youtube on how to remove the washer bottle if you go that route...also make sure you dont have any leaks in the washer hoses that might have went unnoticed thus causing weak pressure, from my experience the washer pumps are either good or bad at least on other older cars....good luck

actually the old fill it till it runs out the top hole MIGHT not be the right advise...MY daughters 2016 jeep i seen the right front axle seal was leaking at the outer edge so i cleaned it up the best i could and then refilled the front differential and since it was still covered under warranty we took it too the dealership, and they at first said it wasnt leaking as there was no grease being sung into the wheel well but i corrected the service adviser to go look at the wheel well and look real close, as i had wrote down on the drop off form that i had cleaned it up but they could easily see a lot of grease was still left there,so they went ahead and repaired the seal and then they said well you over filled the difff and i could have damaged it by doing that so i told them well i just had to put almost a whole bottle of lube in there since it was almost dry and that i just filled it till it ran out the top hole and they said well that is the old advise but they said there is supposed to be just a certain amount and then some room for expansion as the diff were not built like the older models and didnt leave room if filled to the top....oh well at least that was there stance

amazon has mopar ready mix coolant for around 14. and concentrate for 26. i just ordered a gallon of the ready mix to have on hand as the local part stores only sell the aftermarket coolant and i have heard to only use the mopar oat brand

well i put 70 k on my 2011 with no problems on the rear struts and now have a 2014 with 138k with no problems on the struts, mostly would depend on road conditions and how you drive it i guess, struts havent been a big problem discussed on this blog,,,also by the way on my 2014 i carry my wifes 3 wheel scooter which weighs around 250 lbs and havent had problems with the rear struts but I did have the upper rear links changed out with adjustable ones...welcome to the group by the way

i just had my 2014 oil cooler replaced last week at thye dodge dealership here in al. i have 138 k on it as well and like you a person could eat off my engine its that clean, i noticed it at my last oil change but just kept a close eye on it till i decided at this oil change to have it fixed, i was holding off due to my ABS module that went bad about 6 months ago and that part is on backorder as well, since i had the max mopar warranty it was covered with just a 100,ded but was hoping to get them both dones under the same ded but decided i didnt want to chance it on the oil leak the OEM oil cooler thur the dodge place is around 245 i believe and plus the install which John said around 2 hrs labor... BUT the part here in the U.S. is still available in stock, you might want to check on ordering one thur the U.S. dodge dealership and has been mentioned that t it would be a great time to replace the plugs as well since they should be done around the 100 k mark here is some from mopar discounted parts online........$174.plus tax and shipping https://www.mopardiscountedparts.com/oem Home 2016 Dodge Journey Engine Oiling, Oil Pan and Indicator (Dipstick) 68596317AA Engine Oil Filter Housing - Mopar (68596317AA) 2014-2022 Mopar MSRP:$250.00 Discount:$76.00 (30.4% off) Sale Price:$174.00

well i went ahead and had the oil cooler unit fixed at the dealership as it seemed to be leaking a bit more and I didnt want to wait till i was on a trip and it goes out completely,new unit and gaskets and the threw in a free oil change as well and was covered under my max warranty with a $100 ded. no mention of the hours to replace it on the bill and also no mention of price on the parts but i would assume at least a $ 5-600 bill at least,,,,BAD thing is the said they have NO update on my abs unit that is on backorder oh well wait and see, i guess
