  1. in central north sask dealers have lots of them but no one wants them ,very bad reputation up here. lots of ram trucks on the road.
  2. i have an 09 journey with close to 150000kms on it and agree with jeepgal, with all repairs done to my vehicle i could of easily upgraded to a honda pilot, toyota highlander gmc acaidia or ford flex and still been money ahead, also then i would of had a vehicle with some resale value. ihave been a mechanic for 35 years and thought dodge was improving quality in the last decade. was i ever wrong. in 35 years of driving i have never seen a worse vehicle, sure the ride and handling are decent but if you cant drive it because its allways in the shop what good is it. Keep in mind that most of my problems are reacurring and that after your warranty is over dodge will not help you . dodge vehicles have sunk to a new all time low and they should of been forced into complete bankrupcy and dissolved. i have owned 5 dodge vehicles in my life and will never consider buying another.
  3. just got a set of michelins in 235 55 19 from tire rack ,good price 139.00 havent installed yet , will update later
  4. look under the back between the rear wheels if there is a diff and driveshaft its all wheel drive
  5. have a 09 journey sxt all wheel drive, was good till 15000kms then turned into the journey from hell, definitley not happy, no excuse for this many issues with a new car,dodge must not have done any testing on this car at all
  6. hi i have a 2009 sxt all wheel drive journey with 146000 kms i was wandering if anyone else was having trouble with the rear axles and seals on the rear diff.since i have high kms on my journey i will list all the problems i have had. 5 rear axles cv boot failures due to not enough clearance to the rear knuckle. replaced all the seals on the front and rear axles at 90000 kms and need to replace again. rear heater motor failure at 40k, rear wheel speed sensor at 65k, strut bearing at 65k, tie rod ends at 95k, front wheel bearing and ball joint and struts at 145k, brakes at 60k and 145k, rear lowerfender/door seal fell off, power steering hose failure at 62k, ruined tire at 35k and could not get replacement tires had to buy new rims and tires in different size,19in tires still very rare in canada, two tpm valve stem failures, 1 brake calliber failure. on the good side i have had no problems with the motor and tranny except for the common 5/6 hunting problem and harsher shifting after using the auto stick feature, you have to turn off the ignition to reset more smooth automatic shifting. oil changes between 5and10k kms, 22 miles to gal 90 percent highway, all wheel drive works good, starts very well in cold weather down to -40 not plugged in. a nice handling and quiet vechle when new but gets old and clunky way to fast, hope i never have the missfortune of ever owning aanother dodge product . help from customer service or dealers has been very poor.
