Carywalker Posted July 7, 2021 Report Share Posted July 7, 2021 I have a 2012 Dodge Journey R/T. It hesitates on acceleration, like it bogs down for a few seconds, then takes off like I floored it. And has slightly rough idle. I think it may be ignition coils, but not sure. Hoping to get some advice from someone more knowledgeable. Thanks in advance.

Carywalker Posted July 7, 2021 Author Report Share Posted July 7, 2021 Had a tune-up about 10k miles ago. But they only change the boots and not the actual coils. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
