    Glad to see this is still plugging along!
    We had a weekend of good weather and opened the car up. Driver's floor mat and carpet were soaked! Aired the car out with some fans and took the mats out to dry over a box fan. So far the fogginess seems to be gone and we are back in the 20s / 30s again already.
    These aren't as "stock" as she'd like, but thanks for the part number! An OE Mopar part will surely help a sale for us lol.
    Here are some pictures I did take after quickly wiping the cars down. Hope no one on here is crazy - I won't be blurring any plates.

    Thanks everyone! So far we have really settled in and started to enjoy the car. We found a few soggy parking garage tickets stuck between the dash and windshield. Hopefully that mixed with a good cleaning will get us cleaner and less foggy!

    Hello all!
    My soon-to-be wife and I just purchased a 2015 SXT AWD Journey with 18k on the clock this past week. We are Mopar fans - I've had a handful of Neons / SRTs and tend to not shot outside of the FCA limits. She just upgraded from her 2005 Scion to the Journey and she (we) love it!
    We are 20-somethings with a couple of dogs and growing careers. We like the Journey as it's a step-up for either of us, gets good MPGs, has AWD, 3rd row seats, and we don't have to shift (first automatic car for either of us).
    That said, so far we have very few complaints and look forward to small accents to make the car "ours." She'd like to upgrade to some bigger OEM wheels and I'd like to get some camping-esque gear (air mattress, hatch tent, etc. . . ).
    Now my main complaint - the car is always foggy. She has to blast the defroster to give herself a clear side view and windshield. I've read a few other threads where someone had their slushmat leaking and the floor was wet, someone had part of the A/C compressor replaced under warranty, and others are suggesting the heater core but I've fought that smell and replacement and this doesn't seem indicative of that - no smell or residue. The floor is dry. I haven't checked the EVAP drain near the gas pedal yet. . . Any ideas are welcome, otherwise thanks for having us!
    Back to the intro - we are all about Mopar upgrades and accessories so if there is an untapped market for this car I haven't found yet, I'd love to hear what's available and what are common / good upgrades and mods for these cars.
    Oh yeah, it appears to be "Brilliant Red" in color

    Welcome to the forum. Check the accessories and modifications sections for ideas on customizing your DJ. Not much aftermarket out there but we have quite a few creative members who have done some amazing things with their rides.

    my dad used to tell us to stop breathing when the windows fogged up back in the day.
    Other than that, I can't help.
    And welcome!
