Hello,
I have a 2012 Dodge Journey with 25000 k on it, that had the exact same thing happen. It has become a nightmare. I have had it towed to the dealer 3 times in 4 months and have spent a total of $1879.00 on repairs that have not worked.
here are the details:
October 15, 2016 Hands Free and Uconnect stopped working.
October 24, 2016 tried to start vehicle in carport. Brake became very rigid, all lights on dash came on, said -40 and then started ticking like a bomb. Hubby disconnected battery for a few hours, reconnected but was completely dead.
towed to dealer and after 2 days they replaced TIPM. $874.44. Drove vehicle home and all was good. Until....
December 13, 2016: took in again for maintenance and told them Uconnect not working again. Did a scan, said it was the hands free module. $187.50 for scan.
decided I could not get it fixed right then as quote for replacement was $780.00.
December 27, 2016: won't start. Tow in, they say battery is dead. Replace battery
$381.08
january 24, 2017: won't start. Get towed to dealership. They look for what may be draining the battery. Claim they have found it. Installed new KIN. No charge.
February 23,2017: Vehicle will not start. Get towed in. They do electrical system diagnostics. Replace HFM. $436.80. They say they do not know if this fix my vehicle once and for all.
Does any one have any thoughts on this? I cannot afford to keep doing this.
Deb
