  1. The menu setting for that are on the touch screen. If that was replaced then I dont think you can.
  2. Hopefully Dodge Cares can jump in and offer some assistance to you. You might try sending a pm.
  3. I understand, but your title and spamming a bunch of threads that this is the worst car you evern owned is not helping anyone. If you want help, ask for it. Sounds to me like your venting.
  4. Sorry for your troubles. I dont know why people start threads like these in a Dodge Journey forum. It's like going to your hometeams football game and screaming they stink at the top of your lungs. It would be better to start out with an introduction to your problems and what you have done to try and recify the issues. We could then start a productive conversation with you and try to help you out. Just joining the forum to start a thread titled" worst car ever" is not going to get you much help. On this forum, you have access to Dodge Care specialists, experienced auto technicians and do-it-ourselfers (like myself) who can assist you with dealer problems and other issues you may have, plus there may be someone else who experienced the exact same issue and knows what it takes to resolve/fix the issue(s). Hopefully someone may chime in with some helpful information. I feel your frustration but come to the forum with a positive attitude and you will get positive results. We are a forum of Dodge Journey enthusiasts and take it a bit personal when someone starts a thread titled "Dodge Journey Worst Car Ever". That is your personal opinion and are free to express it, but dont expect much advise. My opinion? We owned an 09 for 4 years and 80,000 miles when we traded it. We loved it so much we got another one. There are two sides to every coin. Dodge Journey, Best car ever!
  5. Anyone upgraded the interior bulbs to LED's? I did this on our 09 and just bought regular LED bulbs. In searshing for LED's for the 2013 model, I see options for "CAN BUS" LED's alongside the normal LED's. Do the newer models really need the CAN bus LED's for interior lights?
  6. Better luck with your next car. Come to a Dodge Journey enthusiast forum, post a thread like this and what did you expect? Sympathy? I love my DJ so much I just bought another one. This thread is finished.
  7. I have noticed louder than normal noises from our DJ when its cold outside. Everything works normally and the sound goes away after it warms up a bit. I dont worry about it.
  8. A 2012 with a soft pedal already? How many miles? Have you inspected the brakes? Maybe your pads are worn and it takes more travel to stop. Seems strange to have to bleed brakes on a year old car. I've had 10 year old vehicles with over 100000 miles and never had to randomly bleed the brakes unless I was replacing hardware that required opening the system.
  9. Sometimes if you call to cancel they will offer you reduced prices to remain a paying member, or offer a few months free. Sometimes. That worked for me once and I got like 6 more months free when my paid year was up. I tried it again and when that ran out and they kinda just said sorry to see you go. You should check their website to see if there are any specials going on or anything like that.
  10. Welcome to the forum! Where are the pics of your car???? We love pics!!!!
  11. Could be a number of things. Do you feel it in the steering wheel? Your seat?
  12. Welcome to the forum! Lets see some pics!
  13. If the dealer wont help, perhaps a local body shop can take a look. I dont have this experience with mine.
  14. Glad to hear. Our 09 SE was a dependable vehicle. Never left us stranded.
  15. Understand that the tires that came with your new car were not designed by Kumho, Michelin, Goodyear, Bridgestone or any other tire manufacturer. They were designed by Chrysler. If your new car came with a set of Kumho's, Kumho made the tire but they made it to the specifications set by Chrysler. The OEM tires that came with your car can’t be replaced (which is a good thing) after they’ve worn out. And they will wear out much sooner than they should. This is because virtually all auto manufacturers specify very soft rubber which means they wear out too fast. You can buy what you think is the same tire, but it will have a different model number when sold by a tire store. Auto manufacturers do this because they want that new car to have the smoothest ride possible, even at your expense of having to buy a new set of tires at half the mileage you should have to. When you test drive that brand new car and it rides very, very smoothly you’re more likely to buy it. You’ll find out how fast the tires wear out much later, and when you do you’ll blame it on the tire maker. Don't blame the tire maker, blame the vehicle manufacturer.
  16. Not sure, the fuse box cover should say what all is on that circuit. If not, maybe the owners manual?
  17. Nice looking Journey. I love the blacked out grill.
  18. That looks really nice. I'm thankful I dont live where it snows enough that I have to keep two sets of wheels/tires. I got 5 vehicles...would have no place to store the unused ones...lol
