Welcome. I think you will enjoy the Journey.

Welcome. I think you will enjoy the Journey.

Welcome. A lot of car for the $.

use to work at GMC 30 yrs ago building tractor trailer semis and when we would get a rattle in the door (screw or what ever the fix was drill a small hole in the side of the door and squirt windshield sealant into it then open and shut the door till the noise was gone them put a screw in the hole... LOL that was the fix we were told to use, as it was get them out the door as fast as we could...

I only had mine 4 months but I agree with what's been said. Wonderful vehicle and good value.
I was just recommending the DJ to a buddy of mine. He has a young son and right now they are in an old compact car.
Someday that lad is going to be into all sorts of sports and they will need more room.
My only regret is not buying one sooner.

Welcome to the forum.
My wife's boss is from Sweden and she goes back each year to visit family.

traded my 2011 at 70k small problem with the front rotors at about 11k dealer took care of it, and now have 36k on my2014 just put new tires on it, 3 of the tires still had some tread left and one tire was down to the wear bars but it was worn down evenly so it wasn't an alignment problem and i always kept them rotated regularly. I love my journey for the room and ride.....

45000 miles on our 2013 SXT. Tires, oil and filter changes and one issue with the front struts replaced under warranty. Nothing major. Love this vehicle.

x2 ^^ although I only have 10,000 miles and not quite 2 years. Awesome. First white Blacktop I've seen!

Just turned 55,000 miles. Not flawless as I had the cam phaser issue and my dealer had to crack the engine at about 5,000. I have also replaced the 2011 brakes with new EBC rotors and pads. Other than those issues, pretty darn good. Still runs like the day I brought her home. Still has plenty of power and better than 25 mpg when I'm not fully loaded on the roof. Very happy.
Peace.

Turn key flawless vehicle. There are one or two recall notices sitting in the glove box if I ever get to the dealer, but I see no need to. This Dodge has been truly excellent. Still love the performance of the engine and transmission (I have a cherished memory of totally shamed some poser driving a bmw suv from more than one stop light, oh so sad). We love the ride and the comfort. We get positive comments and lookers still today. Really cannot be happier, what incredible value! oh and no sunroof leaks..ever. And we frequent high pressure touch-less carwashes. lol. This is our first new dodge suv, wont be our last. Our first new dodge was a 09 challenger, again, never been back to dealer for any issues whatsoever but for a recall it had no issue with. Very impressive car. Love it!

I don't think that would get my wife's approval. lol
Thanks all.

Tomorrow will be my last working day. I am retiring from the job after 31 years.
I'll be finding another job that will leave me more time for fun as I'm too young yet for a cane and rocking chair. I plan to get back to hunting and fishing too. Plus more time to enjoy the Journey.

I just turned 3,200 miles on my DJ after another weekend road trip. I enjoy the journey in my Journey.
Once again the little 4 cylinder engine did the task of hauling another big load with ease. I should have taken a pic or two, but I had the entire back (with rear seats folded down) filled from floor to ceiling and the front passenger seat and floor packed with cargo from our home relocation.

Nice Journey. Welcome to the forum.

The sound system is pretty good compared to the previous new vehicle I had. But I hardly ever listen to the radio anyways. I prefer to focus on playing on my phone.....

I do not like the touch controls on the bottom of the screen. Too distracting. I set the heat before I set off on a drive, then use the manual controls to increase or decrease the temperature. The "A" does an amazing job keeping all the windows clear, when there are 4 or more riding in close to 0 degrees. I do have to use the rear defroster; it is the only window that will fog up.

That's what I'm saying. Sure. I could upgrade and it would sound "better", but I'm perfectly happy for what it is. I have no complaints. If I did feel so inclined to sink money into a vehicle I'm making payments on and will probably be gone in a few years, I'll put that money into gas, tires and oil. GTO. I have no problem with people who feel otherwise. Your arguments to the contrary won't sway my opinion. Audio quality is not high on my list of desirables when purchasing a vehicle I know I won't keep.

I went to the car wash yesterday to wash off several months' worth of winter crud.
It started raining a few hours later. That is usually how it goes.

Welcome to the forum. I like my Journey. I wish I had bought one 3 years ago.
Good looking, fuel efficient, ample power and superb cargo capacity all at a price that doesn't break the bank.
