2010 Dodge Journey Fuel system Problems

I WAS DRIVING DOWN THE HIGHWAY AND MY CAR STALLED COMPLETELY. I HAD TO COAST TO THE SIDE OF THE HIGHWAY AND TRY TO RESTART MY CAR. ALSO, HAVE ISSUES WITH BATTERY BEING DRAINED OF ALL POWER, HAD TO REPLACE BATTERY. MY HORN RANDOMLY BEEPS WHETHER DRIVING OR NOT. ALARM SYSTEM WILL SOUND ALL HOURS OF NIGHT, HAD TO PULL FUSE. SINCE THEN THE HAZARD LIGHTS RANDOMLY BLINK OFF AND ON. THE DAY AFTER THE ENGINE STALLED ON ME, NOW HAVE A CHECK ENGINE LIGHT ON AND CODE IS THROWING OUT ITS THE ERG VALVE SYSTEM AND GASKET... THESE ARE BIG ISSUES AND NEED TO BE REPAIRED. I'M NOT HAPPY WITH THESE ISSUES AND DODGE NEEDS TO DO SOMETHING ABOUT IT. *TR

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2010 DODGE JOURNEY. IN 2015, WHILE DRIVING 65 MPH, THE VEHICLE STALLED WITHOUT WARNING. THE CONTACT MANAGED TO PULL INTO A FUEL STATION WHERE THE VEHICLE RESTARTED AFTER A FEW MINUTES. THE VEHICLE WAS TAKEN TO AN INDEPENDENT MECHANIC, BUT THE TECHNICIAN WAS UNABLE TO DUPLICATE THE FAILURE. THE CONTACT CALLED AN UNKNOWN DEALER IN SAN JUAN CAPISTRANO, CA AND WAS INFORMED THAT THERE WAS NO RECALL. THE FAILURE RECURRED IN 2016 AND THE VEHICLE SHUT OFF WHILE PULLING INTO THE DRIVEWAY. THE DEALER WAS NOT MADE AWARE OF THE FAILURE. IN 2017, THE VEHICLE TOOK SEVERAL ATTEMPTS TO START. THE FAILURE RECURRED IN 2018 AND THE REMOTE START KEY DID NOT WORK. THE VEHICLE WAS TAKEN TO AN UNKNOWN DEALER IN TUCSON, ARIZONA WHERE THE REMOTE START KEY WAS REPLACED. MOST RECENTLY, AFTER PUMPING FUEL AT THE FUEL STATION, THE VEHICLE DID NOT START. THE CONTACT WAITED A FEW MINUTES AND THE VEHICLE RESTARTED. THE DEALER AND MANUFACTURER WERE NOT MADE AWARE OF THE FAILURE. THE VEHICLE WAS NOT REPAIRED. THE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS UNKNOWN.

I HAVE A 2010 DODGE JOURNEY 81,000 MILES & HAD IT ABOUT 1 YEAR. OVER THE PAST 6 MONTHS I HAVE BOUGHT 6 BATTERIES BECAUSE MY CAR WOULD FAIL TO START. MY FRONT WIPERS WOULD RANDOMLY MOVE WHEN THE CARE WAS PARKED AND NO ONE IN IT THEN MY BACK WIPERS WOULD DO THE SAME. THE DODGE RAM LIGHT ON MY DASHBOARD WOULD COME ON RANDOMLY WHEN THE CARE WAS PARKED AND KEY WAS NOT IN THE IGNITION. FINALLY TOOK IT TO THE DODGE DEALERSHIP IN FEB, THEY REPLACED THE BATTERY, KEPT THE CARE FOR OVER A WEEK, CALLED ME AND STATED THAT THE CAR HAD A BATTERY DRAINAGE PROBLEM BUT WHEN ON THE DIAGNOSTIC TEST, THE PROBLEM WOULDN'T SHOW ITS FACE LONG ENOUGH FOR THE MECHANIC TO TRACK DOWN THE PROBLEM. THEY ALSO STATED THE REASON MY HORN DIDN'T WORK WAS BECAUSE SOMEONE TOOK OUT THE FUSE. WHEN THEY PUT THE FUSE BACK IN, MY HORN WOULD RANDOMLY GO OFF NO MATTER IF IT WAS PARKED OR IF I WAS DRIVING IT. I TOOK THE CAR BACK HOME AND SURE ENOUGH, LESS THAN A WEEK LATER, SAME ISSUE. THEY KEPT THE CAR FOR ANOTHER 2 WEEKS, SAME OUTCOME! COULD NOT TRACK DOWN THE ISSUE. A WEEK AFTER I GOT THE CAR BACK, I WAS DRIVING AND AS I PRESSED THE GAS, MY CAR WOULDN'T ACCELERATE!! I WAS IN 5PM TRAFFIC WITH 2 KIDS, ALMOST CAUSED A WRECK TRYING TO GET OVER TO A PARKING LOT. MY STEERING WHEEL WOULD HARDLY MOVE! HAD TO HAVE THE CAR TOWED AGAIN TO THE DODGE DEALERSHIP. I HAVE ASKED AGAIN AND AGAIN IF IT WAS THE TIPM BUT I GET NOWHERE!!!! THIS CAR IS POSSESSED AND DODGE SEEMS TO NOT CARE ENOUGH TO FIX THE PROBLEM OR FIND IT FOR THAT MATTER. I DONT FEEL SAFE DRIVING IT (I CANT AT THE MOMENT BECAUSE THEY HAVE TO FIX THE FUEL PUMP WHICH IS RAN BY WHAT....YOU GUESSED IT THE TIPM)! I NEVER KNOW IF THE CAR IS GOING TO START FROM MOMENT TO MOMENT NOR DO I KNOW IF IM GOING TO BE STRANDED ON THE SIDE OF THE ROAD WITH MY CHILDREN.AGAIN! A CAR SHOULD NOT HAVE THIS MAY ISSUES AND THE DEALERSHIP NOT KNOWING OR ACKNOWLEDGING THE PROBLEM!

MY VEHICLE FAILED TO START. AFTER RESEARCH AND FINDING INFORMATION THAT THERE IS AN ISSUE WITH TIPM AND THE FUEL PUMP RELAY THAT IS BUILT INTO THE CIRCUIT CARD FAILS AND CUTS OUT THE FUEL PUMP AND SHUTS OFF THE ENGINE. LUCKILY THAT THIS VEHICLE WAS NOT ON THE ROAD WHEN IT FAILED AND CAUSE A SERIOUS ACCIDENT. MY UNDERSTANDING THAT THERE IS A LEGAL LAW SUIT FOR SAME ISSUES BUT FOR NEWER MODELS. 2012 JEEP AND CARAVANS ECT... I HAVE CHECKED FOR POWER FOR THE FUSE BOX AND NO POWER COMING FROM AND 2 POINTS FOR FUSE. I HAVE CALLED DODGE RECALL LIST AND UNDER MY VIN THERE IS NO RECALL FOR THIS ISSUE. *TR
