Xphyle Posted May 16, 2008 Report Share Posted May 16, 2008 Hi All! This is my first post to this forum. Glad to be here and will plan to spend lots of time here in the near future. I just wanted everyone to know that I was planning to pick up my new loaded Black Journey R/T AWD tomorrow at the dealer. Today I received a call from the dealer saying that they were just notified about a Journey recall and that because they are awaiting the part to fix the vehicle, I will not be able to take possession of the vehicle until the problem is fixed. They assume they should have the part within a week, however, they salesperson will get more information this afternoon and call me back to let me know exactly what the nature of the recall is and exactly when they should expect to see the part come in. I'm really bummed, as I was looking forward to getting the Journey. It took a while to find one here in the CT area that had the Navigation system included, but they finally found one and it arrived at the dealership just yesterday. Anyone have any more info about this recall? I read in another thread about the airbag light not going off, and something about a whistle noise, and finally another thread about leaky sunroofs. I'll post when I have more information later today. Best, Xphyle Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Snow_Runner Posted May 16, 2008 Report Share Posted May 16, 2008 Welcome to the group, have you tried the Dodge.com site? If you go to the "For Owners" tab at the top, you can enter your VIN number and see what the recall is, if any. Rick. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Xphyle Posted May 16, 2008 Author Report Share Posted May 16, 2008 Hey all. I just got off the phone with the dealer and was told that the part they are waiting for is a "MODULE" that needs replaced. Apparently this isn't a new recall, but something that was supposed to have been done by all dealers for their current stock of Journeys. This Journey was picked up and transferred from a dealership in Massachusetts, the dealership there didn't complete the work. My local dealership does not have this part because they only got enough to cover the Journeys they had on their lot at the time. Part will arrive Tuesday.

Snow_Runner Posted May 17, 2008 Report Share Posted May 17, 2008 Yes, this forum has really taken off in the last week, with alot of new members, and alot of new deliveries. It might be time to start a new topic for new owner experiences. Sort of like a "diary". Rick. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
