  1. $98.00 is excessive for 15, even 30 minutes of work. But I guess I will monitor this forum to see if the code becomes available. Thanks, appreciate the help.
  2. Bramfrank, good point. If it's not available, I would rather know that before hand. Also, it sounds like it does not take long to add codes and reset. But the amount they want to charge for something simple is excessive. I have not looked up their hourly rates yet, but how long does it actually take?
  3. Hi Journeyman425. I just bought a 2015 Journey SXT with Uconnect 4.3 REB and I stopped at the dealer today. They told me they could activate the Daytime Running Lights, but it would cost $98.00. I called two other dealers and the prices they quoted were $118 and $139. All 3 told me that I would have to bring the car in early and leave it for a few hours. When I came home, I found the post on DRL and saw that earlier this month, you still could not load the sales code. None of them told me it was not available, but I was not confident in their knowledge. Since the last post I saw dated August 3rd, is the code available now? Also is the amount of money they want appropriate or way too much? Also I am reading about the trailer hitch and would like that activated too, if it is available, but do not want to pay twice for the code setup. I will have to check under it tomorrow to see what I have or don't have for the trailer harness.

      Thank you.  The last 8 are FT718491.   The current milage is 24,988.  I will go to them and ask sales to look into it.  I appreciate your help.  

      Any known issues with the front end?  Had a shimmy on day 1.  They replaced the tires for me and it is much better, but still there is a slight shimmy.

      Thank you very much.

      Sorry for the late reply - busy week! I don't get on the Forum much anymore these days.

       

      Still no sales code LMK for DRL - sorry. But I did add AHC which will enable power to your trailer wiring should you ever add a hitch. The dealer still has to restore your vehicle for the code to be picked up and installed, but it's there.

       

      NO known front end issues with this car. Occasionally we'll replace an outer tie rod end but that's found usually at an oil change service when we check the car over. Most times people don't know about it unless they complain of a clunk or rattle in front end. If the shimmy persists with new tires, chances are the new tires were not balanced properly. Re-balancing them should help, an inspection of the wheels on the balance machine for an out of round condition or dent would also be in order.

      Thanks, I will take it to the dealer for the balancing to be checked, oil change and rough idle in traffic.  I will ask them then to do a restore.  Also will ask them about adding remote start.
