mechanical-idiot Posted January 14, 2018 Report Share Posted January 14, 2018 Just noticed that the grille badge on our 2012 Dodge Journey does not contain the two red stripes that everyone else seems to have on the far right. ?????? Perhaps the grille is an aftermarket replacement since we purchased it used????? Not the end of the world, but it leaves you wondering about it. Weird. Does anyone else have one like this? mechanical-idiot Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mechanical-idiot Posted January 14, 2018 Author Report Share Posted January 14, 2018 Only an idiot answers his own questions! I just spoke to my neighbor and he claims that part way through 2012, Dodge started putting the two red stripes on the front grille of the Journey. He says that some of them have it and some of them don't. I guess that it makes sense, if he is correct, which he might be since he is a huge Dodge fan.

jkeaton Posted January 15, 2018 Report Share Posted January 15, 2018 When they redesigned the grill. You could google Journey models over the years and figure out when it was changed. Or just ask your neighbor. Lol Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

probak118 Posted January 19, 2018 Report Share Posted January 19, 2018 When I purchased our 2012 DJ sitting in the sales office I noticed the same on other DJs. I asked and was told that models produced in the later part of 2012 had a new badge ( red stripes). So, in the deal I said take off the older style badge and put a newer style on.
