  1. on all my older caravans had a green light that would shine down on the center cup holders you actually didnt see it shining down until it hit the cup holders i really liked that and also the interior lights by the eyeglass holder as well the little lights we have in the journey are not bright enough to be of any use.,................just went out and looked at my 2014 and no light there ..there is a small rectangle hole that was probally where the light was supposed to go...as always car manufacturers are always adding or subtracting a feature on their models to enhance or subtract to save $$$$....
  2. Welcome to the group, have never noticed the green light LOL
  3. it would depend on the age of the battery,all new cars have so many chips and electrical draws on them today, they need a good strong battery i replace mine every 3 yrs usually, i just dont like to get stranded,,,,,I am surprised the towing service didn't try to jump start it first before towing it????also be aware that only the power outlet in the front cubby hole is the only one that shuts the power draw off when the ign is off,,the other power outlets stay on and can run the battery down if you have something plugged into them
  4. so are you saying it started the other 3 times ,,sounds like a new battery is in your future,,if so MAKE sure you get the right group size battery if you can get it started take it to your local parts store and let them do a load check on the battery and also have them check the alt to see if it is putting out the correct charge
  5. was thinking the same....does it make the noise when in park??????????
  6. plugs on the 2.4 real easy to change every 30 k you can buy the oem plugs off amazon always use the oem copper plugs

  8. welcome to the group, feel free to read thur the forum for a lot of info, i would make sure your eng maintenance is up to date with plugs and coolant changes and also the transmission fluid and filter, i to have a 2014 crossroad with the 3.6 eng i have 136 k on it
  9. yes, that is normal, and it goes down right away if you noticed it,,hope you used the right oil filter and also didnt over tighten your oil cap as they are easy to crack the oil body
  10. this is NOT in my world of expertise BUT some will chime in soon with a lot of experience on this subject,crutchfield seems to be what some have went with depending on what you have already in your journey,,LOOK under the forum section for the info you are wanting it is all there,,,,,,,,Audio, Infotainment Navigation, MyGig, UConnect, etc.
  11. using your vin # at your local dealership would get you the correct ones or try an online mopar site or any salvage yard as well...if you need help you can call them as well.https://www.moparpartsoverstock.com/
  12. took me 2 minutes on youtube for your answer.............Welcome to the group
  13. yep i also had mentioned it wasnt a wiring problem it was the hose were hooked up wrong
  14. look at the front by the top of the rad on the driver side,then look with a flash litre straight down you will see the pump at the bottom of the washer reservoir 1 hose coming out the right side and the other coming out the left side and then they both come straight up and then run along the top side of the fender till one goes up to the hood and the other goes to the rear they are rubber hose
  15. just stop by your local auto part store or even a plumbing shop if you have some 1/4 inch copper tubing will work as well as it is a rubber tube it will stretch some,,,will only take you about 2 minutes to cut it and install the sleeves
  16. just looked at my 2014 crossroad and the 2 rubber hoses come up to the top of the fender on the drivers side, and one goes to the back of the fender then goes to the hood and the other hose goes the same way but then disappears thur thru the fender /firewall,,,so if you dont want to fix it the right way just go to your local part store show them the 2 hoses and tell them you want to cut them and then insert a Windshield Washer Hose Couplerinto them and then reinsert them into the opposite hose shouldn't cost you no more than 2-3 $$$ amazon Windshield Washer Hose Connector, OTUAYAUTO Universal Windshield Wiper Hose Connector (pack of 10) Visit the OTUAYAUTO Store 4.4 out of 5 stars 1,279 ratings | 61 answered questions Was: $7.99$7.99 Prime Price: $6.39$6.39 ($0.64$0.64 / Count)
  17. why are you buying this kit any part store can sell you the standard rubber tubing...dont try to use the plastic tubing that come on our journey's, just use the standard rubber hose from your local part store cheaper and better as well
  18. Youtube is always the best place to check for problems on your car...also the rubber tubes NOT wires are reversed
  19. what was the fix so others might benefit from your experience?????????????
  20. another way to fix it is to make the repair shop fix their mistake and if they give you any problems tell them you will contact your insurance company and complain about their work on your car and they will fix it for sure then in fear of losing their work load reputation with the ins company
  21. here is a youtube video on how to access your washer pump there are 2 hoses coming off the pump one goes to the rear and one to the front 2 washers......... also i copied some questions for you as well kins men2 years ago question, I just got one of these cars, it has a history go hitting a deer and the front end was redone, my windshield spray works the opposite way, when you try to turn on the front spray, it sprays the back and the front wipers turn on. Same for the back, when you turn it on to spray the rear, it instead sprays the front. The front and rear wipers work as designed, any advise, I suspect something was interchanged? Show less Reply · 4 replies Arches Mechanic 2 years ago kins men check the pump wiring. Easy repair Reply kins men 2 years ago @Arches Mechanic ok thank you. Reply Arches Mechanic 2 years ago kins men the pump supply’s the back and front from the same pump. Reply kins men 2 years ago @Arches Mechanic thanks a lot, I was able to figure it out, the hose connections were interchanged. Reply Jody Stevens 4 years ago Does that motor run back window too? Reply · 1 reply Arches Mechanic 4 years ago Interesting question! I believe it does as it has the two lines coming out of it. When you turn on the switch for front it would go through one tube and when you turn the rear switch on it does the other line.
  22. My uncle up in Indiana worked at Ford motor company as a Boilermaker and he Always bought just Fords and actually told his kids when they turned 16 that they could buy any vehicle they wanted BUT if it wasnt a Ford they couldn't park it in his driveway or yard, they would have to park it on the road in their neighborhood and since that wasnt allowed up there, they all drove fords.............To be honest i worked 30 yrs for Chrysler and during that time i only bought 1 new ford and the rest were always Dodge vehicles as well
  23. you can buy them, but they are NOT cheap i think you would be better off having it looked at by a professional service garage before you overheat and ruin your engine
  24. then your leak is at the connection on the res tank or the tank itself, also probally could be confirmed using a pressure check pump on the cooling system
