I do not understand your questions basd on our family histroy with recent Dodge/Chrysler products disc brakes do not last as long as 53,xxx K so replacement was log overdue After repair the "Symptoms" were brakes did not stop vehicle swiftly and firmly as stated ABS problems ----corrected

The pedal has no resistance----almost to floor beforetaking effect Porblem solve it was the ABS as I suspected during the initial install of new rotos and pads one of the ABS sensors was not replaced correctly

Took car in for brakes, 53xxxK long overdue $1300.00 later, crap Took back to dealer, they agreed, replaced Calipers Back at dealer, replaced master cylinder set-up Back at dealer ?????? loaner car for vacation My best guess based on experience with Crown Vic ex RCMP car is ABS power module Will see when back on July 08

Anyone considered or have done---putting challenger intake 0n for increase HP to 305

Wife took 2011 R/t in for oil change and slight hesitation------new head---this car gets driven hards over 80K brakes of course--

WE have just received a call from the dealer we bought our 2011 R/T from about this weekend's sale-----NO Payments to year end, 3 day trip to Vegas along with other incentives-----HIgh pressure dealer lots of bling and fast talk. But I complained to Chrysler about our purchase and no window sticker, and received---after purchase---a Friends and Family account # for a serious discount----we are considering trading in the 2011--old facia for a 2011 new facia, using this factory discount. Will keep the Forum advised.

6700 K and readout is 10.4 BUT this transmission does NOT down shift when a slight rise in the road comes up, it just drags the speed down, and requires more throttle, and uses more gas-----we have been manually shifting in to 5th in order to maintain speed, have not gone over any real mountains but lots of hills in BC and Washington that on the east coast are called mountains

You have to contact U Connect--the phone number is on line

Allpar has dialog about the 2011 Journey having finished production in early May----so anything "built" in late May should or would be a 2012------interesting situation

In no way do I regard myself as ELITIST, but I do think I am practical I have a Chev Truck 07 New Body Style, belong to 2 major truck Forums these models are seperated from the Old Body Style Caliber Forum seperated the SRT from the std injection models Crossfire Forum seperates the SRT from the std units Dodge Dakota R/T had a seperate section in the original Dakota Forum My "interest" in seperated sections for the older models and the 2011 was because the 2011 is a completely different beast than the previous models and any problems and concerns about them has little or nothing to do with the 2011 unit, as Dodge is going to change the Journey for 2013 this will make 2011/12 concernd redundant This Forum is not mine to direct , but I was hoping it was open to user suggestions Terry

I think in the US the R/T models --Caliber and Journey did not sell well with upscale buyers--we had an 09 Caliber Sport? could not find any mention of this model in any Dodge documentation---after investigation it turned out it had sway bars and HD shocks and firmer springs---probably the R/T suspension. Never saw one in the US Our 2011 Journey R/T AWD is firm to the road and handles the rought stuff o.k.---we do not have any snow to worry about---a traffic stopper is 2" out here in BC but comming from the prairies it is nothing. Under the hood cannnot even see the spark plugs and am looking for trans fill----no luck- I run synthetic in all my vehicles, Chev, Harley, Crossfire and hopefully the Journey. Technical information is in very short supply-------I do not use the dealer for basic maintenance--to pricey, bought extended warranty---but I may prove to be a waste of money--based on our history with Dodge------2000 Dalota R/T's. had 2---kept one until last week with 300,000K orig motor and trans NOTE to Moderator----this Forum needs to be devided into 2010 and earlier and 2011 and up--the problems of earlier models are of no concern to me and do not relate to the updated 2011 and 12
