Easy Rider

I also have a 2013 DJ Crew and about every 8th shift from park to drive is brutal. Loud clunk noise, sounds the tranny is about to drop.
Not really sure why. It happens even if I am on a flat surface, engine cold or hot. I can't seem to find a common denominator as to what
would prompt it to do that, just has a mind of it's own.

Update on my original post from 21 Oct 15, brought the 13' Crew to the dealership and they said it was due to the liquid inside the cylinder that leaked and caused the rusting. Sounds strange to me as both rear arms were replaced due to rust. Anyhow, they ordered the part and changed them on warranty, just glad it's repaired and cost me zilch...

Had the tensioner/idler pulley changed this week due to noise on cold startups. It's still cold out and haven't heard the noise since having the new one put in. It was done under warranty as there is a TSB out for this issue.

On second thought, I think it may have been a duck. I didn't notice the big quack in the bumper before!

Find another dealer, quickly! Factory mistake??? Jesus, they are just making shit up.
I always do my oil changes based on when the EVIC says it's time and it has almost always been around 5500 - 6000 kms, which is right in line with your 3500 miles.
No way in hell I would go 8000 miles (13000 kms) between oil changes, especially with the first oil change.

Glad you joined. I have a 2013 Crew and apart from a minor part replacement have enjoyed no negative issues.

Welcome aboard and as other posters have stated, we are also seeing better than advertised fuel consumption. (presently have 20,000km/12,000m)

Thanks folks, will bring it up to the dealership next time I bring it in.

Have a 2013 Journey Crew. Recently noticed that the 2 arms that hold up the rear hatch when opened are rusting. The rust is concentrated in the area where the chrome inner cylinder meets the outer black cylinder. It was fairly heavy rust so i cleaned it up and applied a dab of rust inhibitor to the area, being careful not to get any on the inner chrome tube. We live in an area where the roads are heavily salted in the winter and I realize this is a rust haven for vehicles but am mystified this is happening on a 2 year old vehicle with 17,000 km's. Anybody else out there having this issue? Thanks in advance!

I jerk too....
