  1. Buy back is in progress. MSRP to MSRP. Looks like the Radio problem is a software rewrite that should take 30 to 60 days to have the software written and sent to the dealers.
  2. We have the base model radio with no bells and whistles. Radio has been ordered according to the dealer. Has been at least 10 days since the order was placed and they have failed to contact me. I have left several messages and inquiries about the radio and have no response. Good Luck to you. Took a survey from a car report site last night. The Journey got poor marks in my book. I am probably going to get a lawyer to see if I can't make Chrysler buy it back.
  3. Join the club. Touch screen went black and the heat came on full blast. 96 degree days in the south and the heat is on and you can't turn it off. Nice. Took the Journey in and they flashed the computer. Problem happened again and they kept it for 15 days to replace a Telematix module. So far the problem hasn't reappeared but the radio now turns up for no reason as soon as the car is started. Goes to full volume but when you go to turn it back down the volume level usually shows 10 or less. Got out of the Journey the other day and the alarm went off while I was standing beside the vehicle. Fob was in my pocket and had no contact with anything. We are in the process of contacting Chrysler to initiate a buy back. I will go back to GMC or Chevy......
  4. Radio problem has not been fixed. Went back today and the ticket has been reopened with Technical support. Dodge is now looking into the problem.........
  5. We have the same problem. Dodge cannot replicate the problem. The radio does not always turn itself up. Sometimes it waits until the car is put into drive. We bought the Journey and it has been in to the shop twice for issues with the touch screen going out and the heat coming on full blast. Wouldn't be a problem during the winter but when it is 96 degrees outside it is not a good thing. They had the Journey for 15 days before saying that it is fixed. We will see.
  6. Just bought a 2011 Dodge Journey to replace our 2004 GMC Yukon XL that was destroyed in the April 27th Tornado in Alabama. Bought the Journey to get a little smaller vehicle with better gas mileage. Got the 2.4L and the mileage is only slightly better than the Yukon. We have had the vehicle 2 weeks and it has been in the shop twice for the same problem. The radio and air control screen has gone out and the heater comes on blowing hot air. Wouldn't be a problem if it wasn't 101degrees in Alabama at the time. The little information center between the gauges switched from English to German when the radio screen went out. Anyone else had this problem? If so what was the cause of the problem because the dealership is puzzled.
