Is this a joke? or have you really never experienced this in any car, truck or van before? This is normal.

Okay...I apologize if this has been mentioned already as I didn't read all the posts due to my frustrating experience regarding shakes...2+ yrs with no fix. I changed Dealers and they felt the vibration at highway speeds (wheel shakes and ass shakes)...they replaced a bad brake caliper, all rotors and then moved a bad tire to the rear. 98% fixed. I am sure it would be 100% if I buy better tires. Hope this helps. I still have bad trans shifts though.

Any updates? Is it still smooth. I have had my Journey 6-speed Auto since June 2008 with tranny shifting issues. Flashed a number of times with no luck. Possibly this is a newer flash than I currently have. I lost hope months ago but you are giving me new light (I hope). Let me know soon so I don't light the vehicle on fire to remove my misery. Thanks.

Did you return it early? I have a 4 year lease and want to return mine now. Please let me know how. Thanks.

I am now getting a squeak on the front passenger side....squeaks when the suspension is in motion....hope I can get a fix. Anyone else had this squeak?

Merry Christmas to All !!!!

I have a 7 seater...It is nice to have the option. The back row is for kids or midgets only and better hope you don't have any baggage to bring with you.

I think this proves that they know the 6 speed tranny is a piece of crap. Also The Canadian powertrain Warranty has always been 5/100,000 kms at least yours is 160,000 kms. (100k miles). Looks like they reduced your bumper to bumper down th 36k miles from 6ok miles. Canadian Warranty During this period of restructuring, the Canadian Government will be guaranteeing the warranty on new Chrysler, Dodge and Jeep vehicles sold after April 7, 2009. All 2009 Chrysler, Jeep ® and Dodge vehicles are backed by a 5-year or 100,000-kilometre* fully transferable Powertrain Warranty with $0 deductible, plus 24-hour roadside assistance. † Basic Warranty coverage is for 3 years or 60,000 kilometres.* Rust-through coverage on all body sheet metal is for 3 years. The Cummins® Turbo Diesel engine is protected by a separate Limited Warranty, covering the engine for 5 years or 160,000 kilometres.* Current US Warranty Warranty We’re confident in our vehicles and we’re backing them with a new 5-year / 100,000-mile powertrain limited warranty[1]. The powertrain limited warranty covers the cost of all parts and labor needed to repair a covered powertrain component – engine, transmission and drive system – on most new Dodge, Jeep® and Chrysler vehicles. Coverage now also includes free towing to the nearest Dodge, Jeep® or Chrysler dealer, if necessary. The warranty is transferable too, so if you sell your vehicle during the warranty period, the new owner will still be covered. Plus, our 3-year / 36,000-mile Basic Limited Warranty[2] provides bumper-to-bumper coverage for your vehicle, from the body to the electrical system.

I would try NAPA, Carquest or Pats Source.

You will probably feel a softer ride and not so tight in turns. But you shouldn't be turning hard with winter tires anyway.

I just picked up 17" steel rims from Apex in Oshawa. They cost $95/each

Mine was re-programmed/flashed many times. That the only thing my dealer knows how to do. i don't think they can use a wrench unless approved by 3 levels of engineering.

Looks like you hit everything bang on. This sounds exactly like my SXT that I would love to get rid of. This is my first (and last) Dodge.

That is very disappointing to hear. I was holding on hope that you would come back with a great fix.
