2009 DODGE JOURNEY. CONSUMER WRITES IN REGARDS TO TRANSMISSION FAILURE. *LD THE CONSUMER STATED THE TRANSMISSION FAILED. THE DOORS WOULD NOT LOCK AND THE TIRES BLEW OUT, AS THERE WAS NO TREAD ON THEM. *JB
TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2009 DODGE JOURNEY. THE CONTACT STATED THAT THE ROTORS, CALIPERS, TRANSFER CASE, AND FRONT PASSENGER SEAT SENSOR CAUGHT FIRE, THE VEHICLE ALSO EXPERIENCED A LOSS OF POWER. THE VEHICLE WAS TAKEN TO AN INDEPENDENT MECHANIC WHERE THE TECHNICIAN DIAGNOSED THAT THE BRAKE ROTORS AND THE BRAKE CALIPER WERE DEFECTIVE AND NEEDED TO BE REPLACED. THE VEHICLE WAS REPAIRED. THE CONTACT ALSO HAD THE VEHICLE REPAIRED AT THE DEALER FOR THE TRANSFER CASE MALFUNCTION. UPON INSPECTION FOR THE SEAT SENSOR FAILURE, THE CONTACT NOTICED THAT A RUBBER BOOT WAS NOT INSTALLED, WHICH RESULTED IN THE INSULATION IGNITING. THE CONTACT EXTINGUISHED THE FLAMES AND PLACED ELECTRICAL TAPE AT THE END OF THE WIRE. THE VEHICLE WAS ABLE TO BE RESTARTED AFTER NUMEROUS ATTEMPTS. THE TIRE SENSOR ALSO MALFUNCTIONED, WHICH RESULTED IN THE TIRE CONSTANTLY GOING FLAT. THE CONTACT RECEIVED NOTIFICATION OF NHTSA CAMPAIGN NUMBER: 14373000 (ELECTRICAL SYSTEM); HOWEVER, THE PART TO DO THE REPAIR WAS UNAVAILABLE. THE CONTACT STATED THAT THE MANUFACTURER EXCEEDED A REASONABLE AMOUNT OF TIME FOR THE RECALL REPAIR. THE MANUFACTURER WAS NOTIFIED OF THE FAILURES. THE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS 34,903.
TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2009 DODGE JOURNEY. WHILE DRIVING 20 MPH, THE VEHICLE STALLED AND ALL OF THE CYLINDERS CEASED IN THE ENGINE. THE CHECK ENGINE AND TIRE AIR PRESSURE INDICATORS ILLUMINATED ON THE INSTRUMENT PANEL. THE VEHICLE WAS NOT DIAGNOSED OR REPAIRED. THE MANUFACTURER WAS NOT NOTIFIED. THE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS 161,414.
CAR STARTED SHAKING VIOLENTLY, STOPPED AT A TIRE COMPANY(BAYARD TIRE IN BAYARD FLORIDA) AND TECH SAID LEFT REAR TIRE BELTS WERE BROKEN. THIS IS THE FIFTH KUMHO TIRE THAT THIS HAS HAPPENED TO. I HAD THE FRONT 2 REPLACED IN APRIL OF 2012 (39000) AND THE REARS REPLACED IN SEPT. OF 2012(40000) NOW THE LEFT REAR TIRE HAS DONE THE SAME THING AT 55000 MILES. THIS COULD CAUSE A MAJOR ACCIDENT IF IT WOULD HAVE BLOWN OUT. *TR

WHILE DRIVING HOME FROM LOCAL GROCERY STORE, REAR DRIVERS SIDE TIRE SUDDENLY BECAME FLAT. I WAS ABLE PULL OVER TO THE SIDE OF THE ROAD. WHEN MY HUSBAND ARRIVED TO HELP, HE ATTEMPTED TO PUT IN SOME "FIX A FLAT" TO GET ME TO THE TIRE STORE LESS THAN 2 MILES AWAY AND THE VALVE STEM WENT COMPLETELY INSIDE AND ALL AIR WAS RELEASED FROM TIRE. HE PUT ON THE SPARE AND WE TOOK THE TIRE TO THE TIRE STORE AND HAD TO PURCHASE A NEW VALVE STEM WITH SENSOR IN IT. AGAIN, DODGE IS PUTTING FAULTY EQUIPMENT INTO THEIR CARS AND NOT ACKNOWLEDGING OBVIOUS FLAWS IN THEIR VEHICLES. THIS IS ANOTHER EXAMPLE OF A SAFETY RECALL THAT DODGE SHOULD BE FORCED TO PUT IN PLACE. *TR
WHILE TRAVELING 70 MPH FROM DETROIT TO OHIO WITH THREE 13 YEAR OLD BOYS IN MY CAR. THE FRONT PASSENGER TIRE WAS EXTREMELY LOW. I WAS ABLE TO MAKE IT TO A SERVICE STATION. WHEN I ATTEMPTED TO PUT AIR IN THE TIRE, THE VALVE BROKE, RELEASING ALL AIR IN THE TIRE. I CONTACT ROAD SERVICE THROUGH MY INSURANCE AND THEY PUT THE SPARE ON. I THEN TRAVELED TO FIRESTONE IN SANDUSKY, OH, WHERE I WAS TOLD THAT THE TIRE COULD NOT BE REPAIRED. UNFORTUNATELY, THEY DID NOT HAVE MY TIRE IN STOCK AS IT IS A 19" KUHMO. THEY WERE ABLE TO FIND ONE TIRE 100 MILES FROM WHERE I WAS IN CLEVELAND. SO OFF I WENT TO CLEVELAND, WHERE I SPENT $289 TO REPLACE A TIRE THAT WAS BARELY 10 MONTHS OLD DUE TO THE FAULTY VALVE. TODAY I CONTACTED [XXX] AT SUBURBAN CJD OF TROY AND WAS TOLD THAT I WOULD HAVE TO PAY FOR THE REPLACEMENT OF THE VALVES. NOT ACCEPTABLE. I COULD HAVE BEEN KILLED ALONG WITH THE TREE TEENAGE PASSENGERS THAT I HAD IN MY CAR. PLEASE ADVISE AS TO HOW I SHOULD PROCEED. INFORMATION REDACTED PURSUANT TO THE FREEDOM OF INFORMATION ACT (FOIA), 5 U.S.C. 552(B)(6). *TR
TIRE PRESSURE SENSORS MOUNTED ON THE VALVE STEMS ON THE WHEELS ARE CRACKING AND WILL EVENTUALLY FAIL CAUSING A SUDDEN LOSS OF AIR TO THE TIRES THAT MAY LEAD TO AN ACCIDENT THAT MAY CAUSE SERIOUS INJURY OR DEATH. *TR
THE VEHICLE KEEPS OVERHEATING. I'VE ADDED COOLANT. THERE DOESN'T SEEM TO BE A LEAKAGE STAIN IN THE GARAGE OR DRIVEWAY. IT HAPPENED YESTERDAY AFTER LEAVING THE OFFICE FOR LUNCH. I BARELY MADE IT HOME BEFORE THE JOURNEY COMPLETELY SHUT DOWN. I ALLOWED THE ENGINE TO COOL OFF, ADDED COOLANT, AND IT WOULDN'T RESTART. I TOOK A DIFFERENT CAR BACK TO WORK AND WAS ABLE TO START THE JOURNEY UPON RETURNING HOME. I LET IT SIT OVERNIGHT AND IT STARTED RIGHT UP THIS MORNING. HOWEVER, UPON DRIVING 15 MINUTES DURING LUNCH TODAY, IT OVERHEATS AGAIN. THE RED WARNING LIGHT APPEARED AND THE DING SOUNDED. THE JOURNEY COASTED INTO MY OFFICE PARKING SPOT WHERE IT WILL STAY UNTIL I LEAVE THIS EVENING. HOPEFULLY, AFTER ADDING MORE COOLANT, I'LL AT LEAST BE ABLE TO MAKE IT HOME. I WILL BE TRADING THIS VEHICLE IN ASAP! PS. THE TIRE PRESSURE LIGHT IS ALWAYS ON, IRREGARDLESS THE PROPER AMOUNT OF AIR IN THE TIRES. *TR
THE VALVE STEMS ON MY 2009 DODGE JOURNEY CRACKED CAUSING THE STEM TO FLY OUT OF THE TIRE. THIS CAUSES THE TIRE TO INSTANTLY GO FLAT, WHICH IN TURN MAKES THE VEHICLE DIFFICULT TO CONTROL. THIS HAS HAPPENED TO ME TWICE. BOTH TIMES I WAS ON THE HIGHWAY. LUCKILY I WAS ABLE TO CONTROL THE CAR AND GET TO THE SIDE OF THE ROAD. IF I HAD BEEN IN ANY OTHER LANE I MOST LIKELY WOULD HAVE VEERED INTO ANOTHER LANE OR IN FRONT OF ANOTHER CAR. I HAD TO FIX THE OTHER TWO TIRES AS WELL AS THEY WERE ALSO CRACKED. THIS IS APPARENTLY A PROBLEM THAT DEALERS/MECHANICS ARE AWARE OF. DODGE IS ALSO AWARE. THEY HAVE SINCE CHANGED THE WAY THE VALVES WERE MADE. THEY ARE NOW SOME TYPE OF PLASTIC. THE CONSUMER HOWEVER IS NOT AWARE UNTIL SOMETHING GOES WRONG. IN BOTH CASES AN ACCIDENT COULD HAVE EASILY HAPPENED. AGAIN, I WAS LUCKY. BY DOING RESEARCH ON THE INTERNET I HAVE FOUND IT HAPPENS TO 2009 AND 2010 VEHICLES. I HAVE CONTACTED DODGE AND ALL I GOT WE'RE APOLOGIES. IF I LOST MY LIFE OR MY CHILDREN AN APOLOGY WOULDN'T BRING ANYONE BACK. THE PUBLIC NEEDS TO BE AWARE OF THIS ISSUE BEFORE SOMETHING TERRIBLE HAPPENS. WHEN THE STEM BLOWS OUT OF THE TIRE THE AIR LOSS IS INSTANTANEOUS. THERE IS NO WARNING JUST LOSS OF CONTROL OVER THE VEHICLE. I TRULY HOPE THAT SOMEONE CAN HELP MAKE OTHERS AWARE THAT THIS A PROBLEM. *TR
WHILE DRIVING AT ABOUT 25 MPH THE TIRE WENT FLAT. MECHANIC SAID THAT THE VALVE STEM\TIRE PRESSURE SENSOR HAD CORRODED AND COME LOOSE CAUSING THE TIRE TO DEFLATE. *TR
BRAKES, ALLIGNMENT, DRIVE SHAFT WAS BENT...4TH SET OF TIRES PURCHASED IN FEB. 2013 GAS TANK & FUEL PUMP NEEDED REPLACED APRIL 2013 CALIPER LOCKED UP CAUSING FIRE, VEHICLE NEEDED TO BE TOWED MAY 2013. *TR
2009 DODGE JOURNEY AIR PRESSURE SENSOR FAILURE. ON 4-23-13. I WAS TRAVELING A LOCAL HIGHWAY ABOUT 65 MPH WHEN THE VALVE STEM AND PRESSURE SENSOR CAME LOOSE AND FELL INTO THE TIRE ON THE RIGHT REAR TIRE. I MANAGED TO GET THE CAR STOPPED SAFELY AFTER LOOSING CONTROL. AFTER READING A DODGE FORUM ON-LINE. THE GENERAL IDEA IS THAT THIS 2009 DODGE JOURNEY PRESSURE SENSOR IS POORLY DESIGNED. FROM WHAT I UNDERSTAND. DODGE CHANGED THE MATERIAL THE SENSOR IS MADE OF IN 2011. *TR
TRAVELING AT 60MPH ON WEST BOUND M-59 HIGHWAY, IN MICHIGAN, WHEN ALL AIR PRESSURE LOST OUT OF RT. REAR TIRE. MANAGED TO GET CAR STOPPED IN FRONT OF A BELLE TIRE STORE. HAD THEM TAKE CAR IN FOR REPAIRS AND THEY TOLD ME THAT IT WAS JUST ONE MORE FAILURE, DUE TO ROAD SALT, OF THE ALUMINUM VALVE STEM ON A CHRYSLER TPMS AIR PRESSURE SENDING UNIT. THEY ADVISED ME TO REPLACE UNIT ON ALL FOUR WHEELS BECAUSE THEY WOULD SOON BE FAILING. I REPLACED TWO OF THEM AT A COST OF $65 EACH BECAUSE THAT WAS ALL THAT I COULD AFFORD. THEY SAID THAT IT WAS A COMMON PROBLEM AND SHOWED ME A BUSHEL OF DEFECTIVE CHRYSLER (SIEMENS) UNITS. SINCE ONLY THE VALVE STEMS ARE BAD, AND EASY TO REPLACE, I LOOKED FOR REPLACEMENTS ON THE INTERNET BUT FOUND NONE. TOO BAD THAT THEY MAKE YOU BUY A $65 PART OVER THE FAILURE OF A $1 PART. BY-THE WAY, THERE ARE UNITS OFFERED WITH RUBBER VALVE STEMS THAT HOLD UP JUST LIKE THE OLD ONES. [XXX] INFORMATION REDACTED PURSUANT TO THE FREEDOM OF INFORMATION ACT (FOIA), 5 U.S.C. 552(B)(6). *TR
DURING REGULAR OIL CHANGE THE SERVICE MANAGER NOTIFIED ME THAT MY TIRE PRESSURE VALVE STEMS ON THREE WHEELS HAD CORRODED TO THE POINT OF BREAKING OFF. ONE TIRE LOST PRESSURE COMPLETELY, REQUIRING ME TO HAVE IT REPLACED IMMEDIATELY. IF THIS HAD OCCURRED ON THE ROAD IT COULD HAVE BEEN DISASTROUS. *TR
TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2009 DODGE JOURNEY. THE VEHICLE WAS EQUIPPED WITH KUMHO SOLUS KHH16 TIRES, TIRE SIZE 225/55/19. THE CONTACT STATED THAT WHILE DRIVING APPROXIMATELY 65 MPH, THE FRONT END OF THE VEHICLE BEGAN TO SHAKE CONTINUOUSLY. IN ADDITION, THERE WAS A VIBRATION IN THE STEERING WHEEL. THE VEHICLE WAS TAKEN TO AN AUTHORIZED DEALER WHERE BOTH FRONT TIRES WERE REPLACED WITH NEW TIRES. THE DEFECTIVE TIRES EXHIBITED SEVERE TREAD SEPARATION. THE MANUFACTURER WAS NOT NOTIFIED OF THE DEFECT. THE APPROXIMATE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS 26,800. UPDATED 12/14/12*LJ THE CONSUMER STATED AFTER HAVING THE TIRES BALANCED AND ROTATED, THE OWNER NOTICED THE STEERING WHEEL BEGAN TO SHAKE WHILE EXITING THE DEALERSHIP PARKING LOT. DEALER FOUND BOTH FRONT TIRES EXHIBITED BELT SEPERATION. UPDATED 12/17/2012 *JS
I SUSTAINED NONREPAIRABLE TO A TIRE ON MY VEHICLE DURING A HIGHWAY TRIP. WHEN I WENT TO A AUTHORIZED DEALER TO PURCHASE A NEW TIRE, I FOUND THAT THEY DO NOT STOCK A SINGLE TIRE OF THE TYPE AUTHORIZED BY THE VEHICLE MANUFACTURER PER WARRENTY SPECIFICATION. I HAD TO DRIVE ON THE FREEWAY AT NIGHT WITH A SKINNY EMERGENCY TIRE INSTALLED FOR OVER 100 MILES. I FELT VERY UNSAFE AND NERVOUS BEING PLACED IN THIS SITUATION. *TR
ON THE FIRST INCIDENT, THE RIGHT DRIVER SIDE TIRE SUDDENLY WENT FLAT. VALVE ROTTED, THAT TIRE WAS FIXABLE. WE QUESTIONED THE COLD WEATHER. WE FIGURED IT WAS A FLUKE. ON JULY 15, 2012 REAR DRIVER SIDE TIRE SUDDENLY WENT FLAT WHILE DRIVING 55 MPH - WARM WEATHER - BROUGHT IT TO A TIRE COMPANY AND THEY STATED THE VALVE ROTTED ON THIS TIRE AS WELL AND THAT THE TIRE WAS UNREPAIRABLE. BOTH TIMES OUR 3 AND 6 YEAR OLD CHILDREN WERE IN THE CAR WITH US- THIS IS A HUGE SAFETY ISSUE. I KNOW ANOTHER PERSON THAT RECENTLY OWNED A DODGE JOURNEY AND HAD A BLOW OUT - THEY ENDED UP ACROSS THE ROAD AND DOWN THE BANK. LUCKILY NO INJURIES. I DON'T THINK THIS IS A COINCIDENCE. THIS COULD RESULT IN BODILY INJURY. THE VALVES ON THESE CARS NEED TO BE ADDRESSED IMMEDIATELY. TODAY I AM SPENDING $1325 TO REPLACE ALL 4 TIRES AND RIMS SO THAT MYSELF AND MY CHILDREN DO NOT END UP IN A FATALITY. *TR
VALVE STEM SENSORS ON THE TWO REAR TIRES ARE CORRODED AND CRACKED. DRIVING DOWN ROAD METAL ON VALVE STEM FELL OFF CAUSING RAPID AIR LOSS IN TIRE. OTHER TIRE WITH CORRODED VALVE STEM BROKE AT CAR WASH. THIS IS A WELL KNOWN PROBABLY, I KNOW THIS BECAUSE I AM A DEPUTY SHERIFF AND THIS SAME PROBLEM HAPPENED TO OUR SQUAD CARS, WHICH OUR DODGE CHARGERS. AFTER TWO DEPUTIES HAD BLOWOUTS AT HIGH RATE OF SPEED SHERIFF ORDERED ALL SENSORS CHANGED. IF YOU GOOGLE ONLINE THIS PROBLEM IS COMING AND PEOPLE ARE GOING TO DIE IN AN ACCIDENT FROM THIS. THIS HAS TO BE RECALLED BY CHRYSLER. CHRYSLER KNOWS THIS PROBLEM EXISTS BECAUSE THEY CHANGED THE SENSORS IN 2011. *TR
ON APRIL 28, 2009 I HAVE A TIRE FAILURE WHILE DRIVING AN A WELL MAINTAINED PAVED HIGHWAY. SPECIFICALLY, I HAD A SIDEWALL FAILURE ON MY RIGHT REAR TIRE. UPON EXAMINATION OF THE TIRE I FOUND A "V" SHAPED FAILURE IN THE SIDEWALL OF ABOUT ONE HALF INCH. CLOSER EXAMINATION REVEALED THAT THE CHORDS IN THE TIRE WERE FRAYED AS OPPOSED TO BEING CUT CLEANLY. DURING THE FIRST WEEK OF APRIL 2011, I EXPERIENCED ANOTHER SIDEWALL FAILURE WITH THE SAME "V" SHAPED BREAK WHILE TRAVELING ON A WELL MAINTAINED PAVED HIGHWAY. I DECIDED AT THAT TIME TO REPLACE ALL FOUR TIRES WITH OME TIRES AND I KEPT THE REMAINING THREE GOOD TIRES. IN FEBRUARY, 2012, I EXPERIENCED A THIRD SIDEWALL FAILURE WITH THE SAME "V" SHAPED RUPTURE IN THE SIDEWALL OF THE LEFT FRONT TIRE. MY MILEAGE AT THIS TIME WAS APPROXIMATELY 40500. THE REPLACEMENT TIRE THAT WAS INSTALLED WAS FROM THE ORIGINAL OME TIRES THAT I HAD KEPT WHEN I REPLACED AFTER THE SECOND FAILURE. APPROXIMATELY 3 MONTHS LATER THAT REPLACEMENT TIRE DEVELOPED A BULGE ON THE OUTSIDE TREAD AREA OF APPROXIMATELY 12" LONG BY 2" WIDE. I THEN REPLACED ALL FOURS AGAIN WITH ANOTHER BRAND. THE OME TIRES ORIGINALLY ON MY VEHICLE AND THE FIRST SET OF REPLACEMENT TIRES WERE: KUMHO 225/55R BW KH16 99T. *TR
BRAKES CONTINUE TO GO BAD. VEHICLE CALLS FOR NUMEROUS BRAKE CHANGES INCLUDING THE ROTORS AS WELL. DODGE NOTIFIED AND NOTHING HAS BEEN RESOLVED. ALSO THEIR VALVE STEMS ARE BREAKING IN HALF IN COLD WEATHER. CAUSING TIRES AIR TO DEPLETE WITHIN 8 SECONDS. I HAVE THE VALVE STEM FROM MY CAR THAT BROKE AND THE OTHER WAS REPLACED EARLIER UNDER WARRANTY. IF THIS VALVE STEM WAS TO BREAK IN HALF WHILE AT HIGH SPEEDS ON THE HIGHWAY, SOMEONE COULD BE KILLED. *TR
TIRE VALVE STEMS - TIRE PRESSURE LIGHT WAS ON AS WEATHER GOT COLDER, WHEN I TRIED TO REMOVE THE VALVE CAPS THE STEMS BROKE OFF AND THE TIRES DEFLATED. THE STEM WAS CORRODED INTO THE PLASTIC CAP AND WHEN TWISTED, STEM BROKE OFF. THANK GOD THAT THEY DIDN'T BREAK OFF WHILE THE CAR WAS RUNNING DOWN THE HIGHWAY AS WOULD OF CAUSED AN ACCIDENT. THIS CONDITION HAS HAPPENED OVER AND OVER ON THIS VEHICLE AND THERE NEEDS TO BE A RECALL BEFORE SOMEONE GETS KILLED. *KB
VALVE STEM DAMAGED WHILE CHECKING AND FILLING TIRES.
VALVE STEM DAMGED WHILE CHECKING AND INFLATING TIRES. *KB
2009 DODGE JOURNEY SXT. IN THE YEAR I HAVE OWNED IT, I HAVE REPLACED BRAKES TWICE, AS RITE NOW I AM REPLACING THEM CAUSE THEY STARTED SQUEAKING A WEEK AGO AND TODAY THEY LOCKED UP. ALSO REPLACING ONE OF THE CALIPERS. ANY TIME I TAKE A HARD LEFT TURN, THERE IS A LOUD GRINDING NOISE. I HAVE REPLACED THE TIRES ALREADY, AND HAVE HAD TO REPLACE THE REAR 2 AGAIN RECENTLY. ANY TIME I GO TO BRAKE WHEN GOING OVER 40 MPH, THE STEERING WHEEL SHAKES UNCONTROLLABLY. I HAVE ALSO RECEIVED A RECALL FROM A LOCAL DEALERSHIP FOR A WIRING HARNESS IN DRIVERS SIDE. WHEN I WENT IN TO DEALERSHIP, THEY PUT IT ON ORDER AND SAID THEY WOULD CALL WHEN IT CAME IN, BUT NEVER DID. THAT WAS 6 MONTHS AGO. *TR
