DeadDred got a reaction from dhh3 in Meh 2015
Ok in dash unit replaced for the second time and review cam replacement ordered. Recall on power steering hose apparently but not in stock have to wait. Magically no one can hear the noise that sounds like a ford power steering pump on start up but gonna make them start a new Journey and then ours and compare the noise.
No air bag recalls like Willowbrook Dodge stated when the sales guy wanted to make a sale and get my wife to trade the Journey in. I tell her make sure if record the convo and video it when talking in the dealer. Sure it illegal but I'd rather go to court and have it public then people getting ripped off.

Well that's not the point. The audio went past 38 perviously and with the new unit it only goes to 38 and the loudness is more like 34-38 before. I wasn't sure at first then my wife confirmed it as she's went pas 38 a few times by mistake and overall the audio levels changed. The dealer said they didn't know anything about anything just like having to lose work days so we can come back 3 times for our own pleasure to be told they can't update the unit. The only thing that worked was FU install a new unit.

Wife got a 2015 White Blacktop edition V6/FWD//7seat/in dash display.
Overall the car is ok and has good power although the grearing is a little wrong.
In city gas guzzler, definatly worse then the 2007 F150 with 5.4 it replaced. On the highway its not bad.
6 months into it noise from engine when starting, sounds like a power steering pump with low fluid. Dealer say "what noise, can't hear it"
8 months into it GPS goes. 3 trips to dealer to find out their system can't update, was told firmware is only per unit serial number so can't be done like any normal firmware update and has to be done OTA (?) finally tell them this is BS and 4th time is the magic number where they replaced the whole unit. Oh well now the volume doesn't go as loud as with the previous player. It maxes out at 38 when it went much higher before. Explained to dealer, they never heard of such a thing, yah ok. Player with USB source bugs still the same as in the old unit. If you are using a USB source, stopt the car/turn off ignition and open the rear hatch door the player starts playing the first file on the USB and not the file that was playing when car stopped. There are a couple combos of this lol.
Got the extended bumper to bumper warranty. Car is ok but with the dealer experience loses lots of points.
