“I have also been dealing with this same issue for the past 6-8 months and based on other complaints I have read I am not the only one.. The electrical randomly goes out while driving. Sometimes it will come back on its own but most of the time I have to pull over to turn car off and restart. Windows, blinkers, AC, radio, wipers, hazards, and exterior brake lights, etc go out. (I do not lose control of driving but fear that is what is next, based on other people's complaints of similar issues). …”
NHTSA complaint #10560179, filed 2014-01, 62,000 miles“In june of 2013 my car alarm started to come on randomly. First while car was in parked position. Days after it then started sounding while driving, leaving my then 6 year olds hysterical. It was happening so much that we took out the fuses. In nov 2014, while entering the interstate exit my car shut off going 35mph around a deep curve. I lost all control of steering and acceleration, brakes locked up. I was able to force steer to shoulder and turn car off and back on. It ran ok until a couple weeks later it did it again. …”
NHTSA complaint #10695381, filed 2015-03, 45,000 miles“The car alarm will go off sporadically, not honking consistently. It has gone off while driving the car as well! The key fob won't turn it off so I would go pull out the horn fuses under the hood. The alarm will still go off without the horn fuses. It is obvious because the lights will flicker, as if the alarm is going off, and a clicking noise of the alarm being activated is heard. Don't know what to do and it is annoying having to drive around without my horn working! When the alarm goes off, we are not accidentally pressing the key fob buttons. …”
NHTSA complaint #10575040, filed 2014-03, 37,000 miles“My Dodge was purchased and originally had a radio connection problem. Where it played static while playing a cd as well as the speakers sounded blown out. Since he radio has been replaced 3 times and still seems to remain the same. I have had the alignment done 4 times since may 2011 and the problem remains.the AC has a delay when turned on. But my bigger problem is when I felt my car shudder while pulling away from the curb. It seriously felt as though the wheels were going to fall right off and out from under the car. …”
NHTSA complaint #10430430, filed 2011-10, 30,000 miles“I bought a 2010 Dodge Journey and have had many issue. First the alignment has always gone towards the right and has been in the shop twice and they said it was fine. I have always had problems with the nav and computer music system. The newest and worst issue is in less than 2 weeks has stopped while I was driving. I took it in the first time and the service said they rebooted the computer and it was fine. Few days later I was going 40 down the road and the car shut off again. Both times the car is in drive and the key is in. …”
