  1. has been discussed here quite a bit,,, look thur the forum ,,,Electrical, Battery & Charging there is No easy answer for this ,some have found odd reasons and solutions, best to take it to a shop that specialists on electrical problems also keep a list of when and what has been done so you wont get ripped off changing a part (battery )3 times...good luck
  2. welcome to the group. hope you got a hell of a deal on it?only time ive ever been in a limp home mode was a caravan and it was due to a transmission senor gone bad some codes you need a special code reader,,,first off if you are not sure of the maintenance on it, i would put in some new plugs, might help, then get some one that can read the codes and can do the repairs if you cant do it,,,good luck
  3. hard to understand but clearly shows n how to bleed the air but dont remove the screw compleatly like he did.........
  4. Zackr125 as stated above by ( 5rebel9 ) did you bleed the air out of the system after you replaced the thermostat,,,, easy to do google that on you tube as well
  5. think the 3.6 has only one thermostat the 2.4 is the one with 2 of them
  6. first thing DONT drive it with it being low on fluid even for a short drive and it not getting hot as YOU will damage your engine,,,sounds like you have blockage in the radiator as it will empty to the res but not let it return to the radiator as it should, could be as simple as a bad hose, clamps that might be partially loose,faulty rad cap or as bad as a bad head gasket,,,google or go to you tube for info on your problem , have you done a pressure check on the radiator,, be careful of overheating your engine while trying to fix this,might be cheaper to have it fixed by your local mechanic as they have all the tools and gauges if you dont ....good luck and please report back on what you find your trouble is
  7. had to google 30 amp cartage fuse,,,,,,,,, to see what he was talking about it maybe blowing, i have only dealt with the blade type so far,,,how do you determine that this style has blown??? is it visible like the blade type when blown???? thanks in advance
  8. yes ask them to do a load test, and also have them check the alternator to see if it is putting out enough voltage as well ............but if your battery is more than 3 yrs old replace it and your problems, most likely will be gone,,,,,,,DO YOU KNOW HOW OLD IT IS????????? also if you keep blowing a certain fuse then yes you have a problem and if you are not sure what to do except buy new parts, i would recommend taking it to a shop that does electrical work
  9. might seem to simple but how old is YOUR battery and have it checked,since you couldn't jump his truck...i would def.get the battery checked or replaced before laying out any more money on this problems journeys act crazy with a low charged battery...good luck and hope its just the battery
  10. actually are you sure its a 2006 as i thought they first came out in 2008 ????? 2008 - 2011 Dodge introduced the Journey for the European market in 2007 at the Frankfurt Motor Show and tried to make a good impression for its new customers. While the MPV segment started to shrink, Dodge offered something bolder: a crossover MPV able to accommodate up to seven people and take them on long trips. ............

  11. depends on if YOU want to keep it going and willing to spend the money,,,,first off you dont give us a location on where you live and that would give us your availability of parts either new or from a salvage yard and of course a local garage with mechanics who charge less than the local dealership would...that said 2006 yes you would probally be putting more than what the car would be worth in the U.S. but also if thats all that is wrong with it ,might be better than going out to buy something else that you dont have no idea on what condition it is in? up to you looks nice ,keep us informed on what you decide.
  12. Any used car CAN be a lemon, but yes journeys seem to have a bit more of a problem if you read this blog BUT as we all know you always here the complainers but hardly ever the ones with no problems. Myself i really like my 2 journeys ive have had and with only a couple of small problems i would buy another one if they were still making them,,, a lot cheaper than other so called better quality vechiles but with a cheaper price you have room for repairs if you have any,,,funny thing all Toyota and other high cost vehicles have repair centers as well
  13. only time my CC wouldn't work was when i had a bad wheel sensor, of course the other lights (abs) had come on as well, i am sure there is a fuse for it, could be a switch or part malfunction, hard to tell,good luck and hope someone chimes in for your problem
  14. the five seat has them for the rear not sure what you are referring to, also have the huge floor back storage area as well
  15. since she hasn't reported results i would assume everything worked out in her favor,would have been nice to hear back from her tho
  16. dont believe the come with remote lift-gate,,,that said all vech have their share of lemons,,i had a 2011 traded in with 70 k for my 2014 crossroad 118 k as of now and love driving my journey,,,have had a couple of small problems with them that the warranty took care of. i also purchased the mopar max warranty as well on the last one just so i can run the wheels off it.good luck on what ever you buy
  17. engine size? , has all the maintenance been done ?has the plugs been changed ? What Repairs Will Fix P0734? Change transmission fluid / filter. Repair or replace damaged wiring and/or connectors. Repair or replace failed transmission or torque convertor component.
  18. WELCOME TO THE GROUP
  19. looks good but i also liked the chrome look as well
  20. welcome to the group,glad it worked out on the repairs with the warranty, i had a 2011 main street traded it in at 70 k on my 2014 crossroad only problem i had on my 2011 was the undersized brake rotors so be aware of that with yours have 118 k on my crossroad but with this one i bought the lifetime warranty on it ,only had to use it 2 times so far and nothing serious...anyways make sure you do your sch maintenance on it and it should treat you right
  21. hmm, hate to say but it might be easier just to get a girlfriend with a newer car...LOL just kidding
  22. welcome to the group sounds like you are a real organised person,, hope everything works out for you...all this lined up looks like a great weekend to get it done
  23. yes everything is fine ,yes there was a mix up, they corrected the problem gave us free install, every time my daughter has had a flat or ruined tire they have went out of there way to get her back on the road even working after closing time to do it once, they are such a great company to do business with, i dont have a cosco membership so i cant comment on their service, but discount tire has went over and beyond for our tire needs,,, and as far as time wasted was only when the tires had too be remounted ....as i said she got her Michelin defender th tires with an 85 k mile warranty mounted and balanced out the door for a total of 109. per tire i would bet cosco would not have matched that price
  24. this code shouldn't be the reason the journey is not starting, but here is some info
  25. so how old is the battery? journeys like a good battery, just because the radio will work or the lights come on doesn't mean its good enough to start it,also after you get it fixed MAKE sure your alternator is checked to make sure it is putting out enough to keep the battery going...good luck P .S. i have a 2014 as well and i already replaced mine at least twice already..i live in AL and heat can be hard on batteries as well
