Wow, nice job. Looks good on silver!

I have it as well, as mentioned, very easy to install, and mine is identical. There are a few dealerships now on eBay that sell mopar accessories for cheaper than you can buy from the dealer directly... I'd recommend checking there first

You are correct, they should do the flash update when the install of the hitch. And the $475 sounds like it includes installation as well.

I definitely love the new badge on the grill with the red stripes. Will have to see where to get one of those!

Is it on all the time? Did you accidentally press the off button near the HVAC controls? Or is the light on in in the tach cluster? Does it remain on when you turn the Journey off, and then on?

It was neither. The Journey needed to be flashed telling it that the hitch was installed so it knew to provide power to the plug.

The only way to tow an AWD journey is on a flatbed. If you try to tow it with any wheels on the ground, you'll void your warranty.

I didn't grease mine, but I don't think it would hurt to grease them.

Interesting. I emailed them quite a while ago, and was told 6-8 weeks. Guess I'll be going with something else.

There was another post a month or two ago where another user was posting that he was looking as well. Unfortunately, there is no chrome hood deflectors that anyone has been able to find at this time. Being as the hood has been unchanged from 2010-2012 and there hasn't been one that is out, I am not sure if we will see one.

Yep, mine basically looks the same as that, except mine Journey is black. It's a bit harder to tell there's a cutout because everything is black.

Correct. The nut I believe is actually connected to the CV Joint. So on the 2011 RT's since they are AWD, we will have CV joints on the front, and the rear.

Don't take chances with the brakes. If the dealer will not look at it, call Chrysler Customer Service.

Since it's dark out, I can't really take a pic of mine, but here is what the finished product looks like... It does appear to be a little lopsided (even on my Journey) because of the way the connector bracket is.

Do any 5 bolt rims fit?

From what I've heard... No. There is very minimal (and I'm talking millimetres) of space with the OEM 16" rim to clear the caliper... If you are buying from another retailer, make sure that they have the rim to OEM specs or it will NOT clear the calipers. The bolt pattern is 5x127 if I recall, and they are a 6x6.5.

What specifically is the size you ordered? These online "select by vehicle" searches are incredibly frustrating. Apparently 1010tires has zero tires that would fit my stock 19's and tirerack.com just has the OEM Khumos.

The OEM tire size for the 16" rim is 225/70/16, and that is what you see in my pic above... I am not sure why Geer wasn't able to get that at CT as that is where I purchased mine from?

Side note - For 19s, the compatible tire size is 235/55/19

You would think anytime now anyways... Still not available.

@Woodsey - You're right. I did get the warning once. The very first day, and nothing after that.

@Generaltso - Yeah, I think it's a pretty sweet feature too that it doesn't nag you and show the light all the time. Would be interesting to know if this works the same way for US vehicles as well. I'm thinking that this might have been one of the changes in one of the EVIC updates because I believe there were a few users... drb227 I think might have bene one, that said that the light always came on when he started his Journey.

The Motorola Roadster will work with an iPhone 3G or 3GS. It has a speaker built into it, and it also supports going over an FM network as well.

ROFL. That's hilarious

Just for arguments sake, I would ask him what the towing capacities are if you do not have the trailer tow prep package.

There is a different in tow rating between a tow prep equipped Journey, and a Non tow prep equipped Journey. It sounds like he just read the manual which doesn't really clarify it.

Did you verify with them that they performed the TSB that's resolves this issue? If so, I'd recommend reaching out to Chrysler Customer Care if this has happened 4 times and you aren't getting any answers.

Not sure if any other 2011 owners have come across this. I elected to not install the TPMS sensors with my 2011, and my Journey doesn't notify me at all. No extra dings that I can see. No light on the instrument cluster. When I go into the Tire Pressure section on the EVIC, it shows N/A for all for tires (obviously), but I thought it was weird that it isn't putting on the light or anything.

I know there definitely are jackpoints underneath because that's how they do them at most places when they change the tires by putting it on a hoist, I just don't know what it is

I noticed the pic was the same on the first one. I didn't notice the rear ones though. Weird

That's what I'm running on mine... Altimax Arctic's in 16... Here's a pic.
