paulnat Posted November 16, 2010 Report Share Posted November 16, 2010 Hi I have had my dodge for around 3month now and for the last 2 month it has been having the same problem. When the car is around 2k revs its jerking forward and back and when you take your foot off the accelerator its making a fluttering sound, sounds like a ch ch ch ch ch ch sound (hard to make the sound with letters lol) Been to the garage I bought it from since it has 3 years warranty, model is Dodge Journey SE (diesel 2010). At first they said it was the heat shield that was loose, fixed it same problem. Second time said turbo pipes have split, fixed it problem went into a blowing sound alot worse, sent it in re fitted them again said they fixed it, sent it back in now same problem, went back in today and they said its a normal light caused by the dodge journeys DPF? It happens for aslong as you drive it and sounds very embarrassing, now can anybody out there give me any ideas what this is or let me no if they have had the same problem. So I can tell the so called mechanics at Kings what is wrong with the car. Thanks. Paul Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sounds like your dealer has no idea or is just over billing chrysler. Go to the dealership and test drive another diesel journey. If they don't have any try another dealership.

paulnat Posted November 25, 2010 Author Report Share Posted November 25, 2010 Hi again but what if they keep saying it is supposed to do that. What rights do I have? Thanks Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
diggit Posted November 29, 2010 Report Share Posted November 29, 2010 You can take it to another dealership or a trusted independant mechanic and have them look it over. A good mechanic should be able to pinpoint the cause. Ask for an estimate, it shouldn't cost you anything except your time, then take it back to your dealership and show them your copy as proof there is something wrong.
