“Cylinder 2 misfire - engine lock suddenly as valve was not installed properly at time of manufacturing. This is a known defect in this make of Dodge.

Causing burnt valve and warped head. *extremely costly repair that was unavoidable with recommended regular maintenance on my vehicle! Dealer will not repair. Manufacturer has not included my VIN in recall.”

“I have owned my Dodge Journey since may 2013, and after two years I began to have problems. The vehicle does not pick up and go. At times when the vehicle is in idling mode (like if I am sitting at a traffic light) it acts as if it wants to stop. On other occasions the vehicle acts as if it wants to stop, even if I am in drive or just sitting in park. I recently had a tune and the battery replaced. I am still having the same problem! …”

“2013 Dodge Journey has transmission shifting problems from a stop to a start. The Journey was taken to our local chrysler dealership. They test drove the vehicle and said the transmission was overfilled. They drained some fluid out and test drove.

The dealership dug into the problem and found that the flex plate between the engine and transmission completely broke, something they flat out said should not happen. …”

The error codes are p083b for the tfps and p0944 hydraulic pressure unit. My car is 2013 and was purchased on april 7th with 44,011 miles on it. I have since put 14000 miles on it with the needed and proper oil changes every 5000 miles. I was driving and started hearing a high pitched winding noise. I started to head to someplace I would be able to park and stopped at a red light. …”
