sepheronx Posted September 26, 2015 Report Share Posted September 26, 2015 (edited) Got this issue since picking up my dodge. Journey, SXT, 2011 v6 3.6L, 96,000 KM. Had issue here and there since 80,000 km. Pretty much, sometimes when starting the car, it starts somewhat rough (louder than normal) and the check engine light appears and the anti slip function will show as off (cannot turn it on then). And the vehicle cannot accelerate past 50km/h when this happens. I fix the issue by stopping, shutting engine off, and starting it back on. Check engine light appears still but drives fine. Anyone else experienced this issue? Edited September 26, 2015 by sepheronx dhh3 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bigtsr Posted September 26, 2015 Report Share Posted September 26, 2015 Welcome to the forum. First time I have seen this posted. When were the brakes/rotors/pads last replaced? dhh3 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sepheronx Posted September 26, 2015 Author Report Share Posted September 26, 2015 Welcome to the forum. First time I have seen this posted. When were the brakes/rotors/pads last replaced? Since I got it? Never. I purchased it 2 years ago when it was 60,000+ KM. dhh3 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
redtomatoman Posted September 27, 2015 Report Share Posted September 27, 2015 Sounds like an intermittent O2 sensor or some other sensor issue to me. Why not have the check engine like analyzed? It may be a very simple fix. Peace. dhh3 and jkeaton 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

sepheronx Posted September 27, 2015 Author Report Share Posted September 27, 2015 I have it written down when I had to take the car in for repairs due to someone backing into me when trying to do a U-Turn in the middle of the road. I will get it and tell you guys when I find it. dhh3 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bigtsr Posted September 27, 2015 Report Share Posted September 27, 2015 I asked about the brakes because It occurred to me that a wheel may be hanging up. A 02 sensor also sounds plausible. dhh3 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dhh3 Posted September 27, 2015 Report Share Posted September 27, 2015 I agree with the O2 sensor Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
