    2late4u got a reaction from dhh3 in ** DAYTIME RUNNING LIGHTS ** PLEASE READ BEFORE STARTING A THREAD   
    well i would have gone to the head guy and told him nicely that if they wanted my repeat sales and recommendations to my friends that they should do it for free and or refund the money to me or maybe he might offer you a free 2 yr oil change service on top of your first 4 free oil services that you will get instead of a refund. good luck and remember their are lots of dodge dealers that you can use...

    2late4u got a reaction from dhh3 in Big brake kit to repace crappy OE brakes?   
    i would not turn any rotor that you have been having problems wit warpage or shudder, you would only be wasting your time and money by making a bad rotor even thinner. that said had my first brake problem at about 10 k and the dealer turned them and then about 28k started having more shuddering so was able to talk dealer into replaceing fronts pads and rotors as a goodwill gesture. now about 30 k later( 63k usa) not having no shudder or any problems with my brakes also i dont do much in town driving i am thinking i will do my rears pads and fronts again in about march or april waiting on wagner to run their rebate offer about this time of year. since not having any problems front or rear with shudder or any rotor problems will just replace the pads. i know most people say you should turn the rotors when doing a brake job but have done this many times before with no problems.also if you use ceramic pads they WILL cause more heat and makes the rotors heat up alot more and i will not use them i always stick with wagner thermo-quite pads and they last forever for me.

    I'd roll it by the dealer and have them remove it since it is a result of improper preparation.

    2late4u got a reaction from halofan.3 in Considering a 2013 Journey   
    i had a 2011 3 row seat journey with front and rear air and heat and loved it.traded in on a 2014 crossroad 2 row seat and love it, But i do find the 2 row seat only comes with the front air and heat as the 3 row has dual air and heat and it does a lot better with air conditioning during the hot summers,it does fine here in al but out there in Kansas and further west i would not get the 2 row with just the front air. i like my car cold.

    2late4u reacted to jkeaton in Trying to buy pads and rotors   
    I'd just go to a local parts store and buy some mid-grade rotors and pads. Ordering them, if something is wrong or whatever, it's a pain, plus the way they throw around packages, one could get damaged. Buy from a local parts store and usually get a decent warranty, lifetime usually on pads. I'll buy a lot of stuff online, but brakes, I just buy local.

    2late4u reacted to jkeaton in Dealer visit for a few issues   
    Coming up on 36000 miles so we went ahead and made an appointment to get the car checked out, tell them about the front end clunks, transmission clunks and the clock running fast.They kept it a day and said the radio needed a part (Radio/Telematics Gateway Module) and the front end noise was from dry away bar bushings, so the lubricated the bushings. They had to order the part for the radio so we got the car back until the part came in. On the transmission, they said they could find no problem. There were no software updates, the fluid was fine and what we are experiencing is "normal operation". OK, I don't have a problem with that and the fact they found nothing mechanically wrong means I'm not worrying about it anymore. On the way home, we had to go to a mall with some speed bumps, clunk was still there....lol...I kinda new it would be. Anyway, they got the part for the clock/radio in so we took it back. This time I took that service bulletin in and showed it to them (the one posted somewhere on here about front end clunks where they say to replace the struts and strut mounts), The service adviser said they had access to all those bulletins and I said, well did you check it out? So they kept it another day and low and behold, they found the problem. So, now we have new struts and strut mounts. 4 wheel alignment included, all at no charge. The clunking is GONE!!! I'll update if the clock slows down.

    2late4u got a reaction from rolly in 3.5L vs 3.6L driving impressions   
    never drove the 3.5 but the 3.6 almost has too much power, reason being if you do a lot of city driving and have a lead foot mpg wont be good but if you take it easy its okay and real great on the open road.

    2late4u got a reaction from rolly in 3.6 oil filters   
    just got back from my last free oil change at the dealership and while waiting for my vehicle i happen to go to the parts window and started talking how i had 3 oil filters left over from my 2011 3.6 and just assumed they would be the same for my 2014 3.6 and to my surprise he said no that there was a slight difference in them and he showed me one of each yr. and the older filter was a little shorter and the new one had a 3 sided legs going up about 1/4 inch with a round tip on top of it. he said for me to return my old ones and he would swap them out for the correct ones so be carefull when ordering your oil filters from where ever you get them.
