    welcome to the group, cruise thur the forums for some great info, at 133 k i would be checking on and doing if not done yet plugs use (OEM plugs only every 30 k) ,trans service, and probably coolant flush and service might even throw in a new thermostat as well....also ii would look over your bushings on the front and rear suspension as well...good luck and happy trails
  3. also he is NOT talking about a trailer he is wanting to use a hitch carrier A BIG difference in the two items
  4. you are comparing apples to oranges,,,,yes any car can be converted to carry a wheelchair INSIDE it including ramps with no problem, the poster is talking about carrying a 600 lb wheel chair on a carrier with a hitch and the journeys frame is not built for that ,,,, way to much weight behind the journey... our local griffin mobility shop has a KIA soul that will carry a electric wheelchair with a ramp BUT only inside of it
  5. just replaced my antenna that was looking like that, nut i noticed it right away as a mech was backing my journey up a bit and the antenna hit the roll up door that was partially closed,,,i doubt that their was a leak there as that whole top part is built on to a metal stud that screws into the base so no chance of a leak there..also the antenna is about $21 at the dealership and about 16 on amazon... if you twist the rubber part above the base it will just screw out
  6. evidently you havent approached any shops that would attempt this, griffin mobility in our own said he wouldn't improve my suspension or install anything for my journey other than a tow behind carrier for my wife's scooter and it only weights around 260 plus the weight of the carrier and the weight of the class 3 hitch.. he was very sure that the journey are NOT capable to carry such weight that the poster is talking about...as far as your example of the caravan is it is internally carrying the 600 lb chair and the poster is wanting to carry it behind the journey on a platform that will overload the rear end and cause instability of the vehicle. and yes the springs and struts can be beefed up but as stated he would still be unstable
  7. that will be the only way ,go by any body shop they will tell you what you want you learn,or they might offer to do it for a small charge as well
  8. i responded but its not showing,, with that much weight you will be way over the tongue weight and even if you can beef up the suspension you would still have trouble , i have a rack like what you are talking about that i carry my wife's med 3 wheel scooter and it only weights around 260 lbs and between the rack and the scooter i am pushing it of course i am using the reg suspension. and to be honest i have had some problems with the rear upper trailer link/upper control arm and had aftermarket adj installed as the OEM arms are non-adj....good luck
  9. just read this on a dodge truck forum...are your windows responding when you push the buttons? I asked a service guy at a Dodge Dealer if it might be a fuse and he said it is not if the windows work which they do.
  10. hope it isn't the TPIM module,,,,,, also would check the drivers side door at the rubber boot for frayed wires causing a short and make sure you are checking the fuses correctly there are 2 fuse boxes on the journey one under the hood and one under the glove box behind the carpet a bitch to get to they say.good luck Power door locks do not function Power door locks that do not function are another common symptom for a problem with the door lock relay. If the power door lock relay fails, it will cut off power to the entire power door lock system and may cause them to not function correctly. For vehicles equipped with door lock cylinders, the door can still be opened using the key. However, vehicles without door lock cylinders will not be able to lock or unlock the doors until power is restored. For vehicles with traditional style door lock cylinders and keys, a bad power door lock relay will merely disable the power door lock feature. For vehicles without door lock cylinders, however, this may make entering the vehicle difficult if not impossible if the doors cannot unlock due to a bad relay. If your power door lock system is having any issues, or you suspect that your relay may be having a problem, have the vehicle inspected by a professional technician, such as one from YourMechanic, to determine if your car needs a door lock relay replacement.
  11. sound like a fuse since both doors are inop with the key fob and manual controls, there also has to be module that controls the lock/unlock of all the doors not sure what it would be called, more than that i would have to call in help from dealership or a garage.good luck and please report back on what you find out to be the problem
  12. so is it all the doors? what about each door locking with the controls on that door or are you talking about the master control on the drivers door?does the hatch lock and lock with the out side button? are you also saying none of them will lock or unlock using the key fob? since you say the key doesn't work so that would only be for the drivers door,, if the key wont unlock the door then it is the lock itself in that door,, a broke wire or fuse won't strop a key from working.,,,either a dealership or possible a glass repair shop could fix the door lock for you
  13. dodge dealership with the vin # would be your best advise for this question, good luck
  14. thanks for the next poster to ask the same question
  15. as you mentioned before all this covid we use to travle quite a bit but also the wife is having some health problems (his getting old is a problem as well) i knew the journeys didnt get real good mph in just the city but here recently seams like i am lucky to get 18-19. i know nothing is wrong as soon as i make a trip out on the interstate i am back up to the mpg i am used to.... LOL so i know where you are coming from....
  16. Yes any and all fwd can be used on a dolly,,, only AWD and rear drive vehicle cant
  17. what Larry said,,,,, turn the cog wheel and you wont have any more problems ........
  18. try leaving your key fob in the journey with the hatch open......are you leaving the engine run as well?if car is running and fob is outside the vech the dinging continues till you get back in with the fob
  19. well Tony a one time poster never reported back what or if he got it fixed, lots of poss leak possibles from a seam leak,leak from the doors ac drain leak to a heater core leak of a leak in the firewall grommet or a windshield leak...please report back on what you find for others to know what to look for...good luck
  20. welcome to the group, please cruise thur the forums for lots of good info
  21. you are wanting to throw good money at it without knowing whats wrong,. have a good mechanic check it out or go to the dealership for a diagnostic,,,are you sure the battery is good ,,,have it load checked as well
  22. I could say the same thing about the adjustable one as well, but i dont want to go back and forth on this ,and also if they made a part that wasn't right they would get sued or go out of business as well,,have a great day
  23. not for sure myself but it is there to pull the tire in or out for alignment purpose, actually the non adjustable looks more out of line than the adj one is also, would it depend on what angle you are taking the picture...also there is a rubber bushing in each bolt hole as well.
