Just received my letter. Replaced front pads/rotors @ 36000km and 24 1/2 months. Work was done at an independant garage. Replaced rear pads/rotors a week later at the dealer. Suspected a seized rear caliper, and garage recommended going to dealer in case it was warranty. Dealer said it wasn't seized. Will be calling the 1-800 number asap. See if I get any of my $800 back.

I have a 5 seat model, but if I remember correctly, the 7 seaters don't have the brackets to hang the cover from.

I got my Journey without the cabin air filter, and just picked one up at the dealership. I'm in Canada, and it was only around $25.

Here's a link to a Dodge Nitro forum where somebody put together some really good pictures... http://www.nitroforumz.com/showthread.php?t=390

It may be the dealers choice, but when I was shopping I went to 3 or 4 and all of them used nitrogen.

If they're filled with Nitrogen (which I though they all are or should be), temperature shouldn't make a difference. It was -29C (-20F) here yesterday morning, and mine didn't have a problem.

It is available for free as a download from: http://www.dodge.com/en/owners/manuals/ind...meplate=Journey. It is currently the second version there right now, but I received the 3rd edition with my Journey.

We already had this conversation a couple of months ago. From the factory, the Journey comes with 2 small indents in the front bumper where screws can be tapped. Any brackets/mounts are added by the dealers or aftermarket.

#1. Never noticed that before. I don't think it will be a problem though, as anything that gets in can drain out the bottom. #2. This is a very common placement for a spare. Most larger vehicles have it there: pick-ups, vans. It shouldn't rust any more than any steel wheels in use would.

If you don't have steering wheel controls, just hold down the button that you use to switch from temperature to fuel mileage. It will also change mileage from/to l/100km and mpg

The transmission is going into what is called 'limp mode'. When there are certain problems with the engine or transmission, this will happen to prevent further damage to the vehicle. You will need to get the codes read to determine the original problem. In a previous vehicle, I experienced this when the transmission went bad, and in another when the head gasket failed. If your dealer can't get you in for something like this in less than a week, you might want to look at another dealer.

I think you guys will have some difficulty with that. My situation is a little bit different: I don't have the third row, so my second row is a little different. With a booster seat on either side, it barely leaves room for us to fold down the center piece (with the cup holders), and slide our hand between it and the booster to fasten the seat belt. I can't imagine getting 3 infant/booster seats across. I think you would be hard pressed to find any new vehicle these days that could accomodate that situation.

Strange, my SXT has no such hole.

Top bring this thread back on topic, the side moldings are now on the Mopar site under: Exterior--Exterior Appearance--Chrome Molding. Price is $216 per set.
