If it's the same engine, I would think it should be the same procedure.

They really did it right in my opinion with this vehicle. It does everything I need it to do, with no complaints or problems.
I am totally impressed with the 2.4L engines ability and fuel economy in a vehicle this size.
Only once did I wish for the power of the 3.6. On a two lane road with a short passing zone. The extra power would have
been nice.
The Journey has had no squeaks, rattles or other obnoxious problems in fit or finish that I can find.
It doesn't get any better than this so far.

That's exactly what I'm doing. It's not broke anymore, so nothing to fix.

I have the 8.4" screen without the NAV system.
On Sunday, started the DJ, and when I pressed the brake pedal to put in gear, the screen on the radio went blank. Then the message flashed on the screen "System disabled, see dealer for service" or something similar. Unfortunately, I didn't write it down. Within 10-15 seconds it came back to life and has been working normally ever since.
Anyone else experience this, or even heard of it happening?

Hi, and welcome to our little corner of the 'net.
If that is city driving, or maybe mostly city with a bit of hi-way thrown in, that's pretty much what I am getting in my '15. Winter gas, cold weather running, extra idle time, remote start run time, all combine to beat up on your fuel economy. When the weather warms up, you should notice a marked increase.

Hey, they say they checked the blinker fluid when I got my last oil change.... and the muffler bearings are supposed to be good for 50k miles, so am a bit away from that. No, I saw it for what it was right away... just thought I'd throw it out there as another indication of how far these places will go to attempt to separate people from their cash.

Was at the dealer today for the recall on the ABS module. Was told at my next service, they recommend a "brake caliper cleaning" What??!! Service advisor sez: "Vans and Journeys are terrible for this... the calipers get dirty, and the brake pads wear prematurely. We take them off, disassemble, clean, lube, etc." I sez: "Really? what a unique way to generate revenue for the dealership." I'm sure the only disassembly that would be done would be to remove the calipers from the mounts and clean the area, and maybe lube the guide pins.
Anyone ever heard of this? I know, the factory brake pads are cheap and throw a lot of brake dust out" but I thought this was a bit much.

My '15 has it as well, without the tow package.

Are your plastic housings still clear or have they started to fog up on the outside?

Mine came with splash guards

Love my splash guards

Got some dodge ones off amazon for like $60 for the set of 4. Don't want step bars. As stated, car is too low for them.

I did a search... maybe was searching for the wrong stuff..... IDK. Thanks for the pic.
I'm thinking the Mopar splash guards/mud flaps definitely, the nerf bars or running boards I'm undecided on. We have running boards on the Nitro and they're actually more trouble then they are worth.

Bought some custom molded splash guards off amazon, same part #s as the mopar but, cost was 50%.

Neat idea... Rolly, move over, I need a bit more room.

That is the 3.5L engine? I've got the Pentastar, so can't go and look for comparison purposes. Have you checked the rad hose above it for a split or pin hole? It looks awful close to the top of the valve, maybe it's got a hole worn in it?
And, I agree with 2late4U, that's a nasty leak.
