  1. Well guys, it's been one year since a bought my 2010 Journey. I'm glad I didn't listen to all those people who told me it was a mistake. I now have 23,000km's and absolutely no problems. Truck runs very well and the highway gas mileage is more than acceptable with a 9.6 @ 120 kmph. The brakes are almost due I suspect, but thats all. I would recommend the 2010 sxt to anyone.
  2. Can anyone tell me if a 2010 RT comes equipped with uconnect as a standard option?
  3. We had quite a bit of snow in Quebec, and my FWD SXT was just great. It feels solid good traction, just awesome!!!!
  4. Second fillup gave us a 13.1 average. I thing its not so bad. We went to a friends cottage yesterday and did all highway and the reading was at 9.6/100km. I think its great, Wonder if it gets better after the engine is broken in. I only have 1000kms.
  5. Hi guys, Just did my first fuel fill up and it is a little better than expected. I managed 13.1 litres per 100 km on a combined highway and city. How does that compare with others.
  6. First day with my Journey today and I am at 122kms. My first comments are that it is very enjoyable to drive during the day. It was raining tonight so I used my wipers and I have to say that the rear wiper is not very good. it just doesn't clean the middle part of the wiper. Another little thing that bothers me is why does the u connect not charge my i-pod touch.? I will try with a nano tomorrow. Overall, can't really complain about anything major, but it has been only 122 kms.
  7. Mine is in laval. Many journeys have arrived in Montreal in the last couple of days. Why is yours taking long?
  8. I will send it back if I get confirmation that it should be included.
  9. Just picked up my journey and guess what ???? no climate control for the rear.. I have the convinience package and the premium convinience package it states i'm supposed to have rear controls , but not in mine!!!!!!!
  10. After a good nights sleep, I reconsidered the sirius radio. Although the dealer said they would remove it from another Journey, I just didn't want them fishing wires over the top and unscrewind things, so I decided to take it as is. I'm not really sure I would want to spent the 20$/month when I have the I pod. Going to pick it up at 7pm tonight !!!!!
  11. Congrats, I hope you enjoy it. I'm picking mine up at 7pm this evening. !!!!
  12. Well my Journey is finally in. Theey told me it was not th dealer called to tell me that they are ready to deliver tomorrow. When I asked them to activate my sirius satellite radio, there. I told them that its what I wanted when i signed. They told me it would cost an additional 1200$. I laughed because the difference was only 250$ when I signed. They then told me that there is no wiring for the satellite radio so they would have to run new wires for the antenna. What a farce. I hope this is not a beginning to many more disagreements with this dealership. I told them that I would not pick up the Journey until it is complete. If they don't do it by Friday, I will go elsewhere.
  13. I ordered my journey on Feb 17, and will be getting it in the next 10 days or so. It let Mexico on the 13th of may and is now in Texas. It has to go through Chicago and then through Canada to finally reach the dealer by the 31st of May. Waiting is torture, I just hope its worth the wait!!! A friend of mine who has a 2009 RT just got the diff changed 2 weeks ago and yesterday it was the tranny Hope my 2010 SRT will be blessed lol
  14. Did you not get the sxt with the premium convenience package. There should be a sub included
  15. Very well said DP360, I completely agree with you. The only point I was trying to make was that there are many satisfied customers and I didn't want people to get scared and get cold feet after reading negative comments. It happened to a person I know who was interested in the journey and after reading really negative comments decided to go for a jeep patriot??? Anyways I know that this is THE best journey forum and all comments and opinions are welcomed. Gatrus
  16. Hi everyone, I understand that this forum is open to everyone and peoples opinions and comments are what makes a forum informative and interesting. Having said that , I am waiting for my journey to come in, and can't believe that way over 3/4 o the comments on this forum relate to problems the Journey has. It goes from braking to radio and everything in between. I just want to let people know that every time a see a journey at a light or in a mall and the owner is around, I always ask what they think of their Journey and if they regret their choice. Most of the Journey's are 2010 and almost everyone says its a great vehicle with no issues. One person told me they changed their brakes after 48,000k's which is about normal. I wish that more Journey owners that enjoy their vehicle and have only ordinary issues post their comments and not only the ones who have problems. Gatrus
  17. Why would you want to return it early? Any problems with it?
  18. Congrats!! I'm still waiting for mine. Ordered it 2 weeks ago and due in July.
  19. Have you heard of any problems with the AWD RT having transmission problems? A friend of mine jusy took his 09 RT to the dealer because it smelled burnt oil and the problem is a burnt transmission.The funny thing is that he does nor haul and 90% of his kms are highway kms. Is this a common problem? lately it seems that everyone I speak to who has a journey has had fairly serious problems.
  20. Can anyone tell me if there is a rear bumper protector for a 2010 Journey.? If so, where can I get one. thanks
  21. Does anyone know it side steps are available for a 2010 Journey SXT. If so does anyone have a picture ?
