Not sure what the point of the paint might be, perhaps it was the original curb and they widened the sidewalk, but unless the signs say otherwise and the CURB is painted BY THE CITY, you can absolutely park there.

As a design defect Dodge doesn't get to decide what years the repair applies to. 

They can try to deny coverage, and many, if not most people will go away, but if you can demonstrate that it is the same problem (which is a latent defect) and that they've provided an extended warranty to cover the previous model year a small claims court judge will almost certainly award you reimbursement for the money you will have spent.

You can try reaching out to your states consumer protection office as well.

No.  You need a new radio.  The good news would seem to be that the R65 wasn't done . . . . or, the bad news is that it may not have been specified for your serial number (not all vehicles subject to problems were eligible for the recall for some reason.  Check with a Dodge dealer.

But I'll ask again;  Did you get a warranty with the vehicle?  If you did, then let the seller handle the problem.

I've been through one oil sender already so I wasn't shocked to see the check engine light come on . . . when I went through the menu I found the oil pressure gauge pinned to the top - another shorted sender, I guessed.

But when I was driving around the pressure indication dropped to normal ranges.  Dealer says to come in after making an appointment, but in any case there's no dangr in driving the vehicle.

I suppose it could be shorted only when cold, but it's a weird symptom.

And that's why I went with HIR for both low and high beams - no muss, no fuss.

Try rotating the tuning knob to another position.  The encoder wheel could be messed up. . . . .

The 2 big things about nitrogen are that;

1.  It is dried (potentially reducing corrosion inside the rim and reducing the variance in air pressure to what is specified by Boyle's law).
2. The molecules are pretty large, reducing migration of the gas through the tire walls.

So, in theory you can go longer without topping up the pressure due to loss (but you still need to adjust for changing seasonal ambient temps) and your rims *might* like you better because there should be less moisture trapped inside.

In practice I wouldn't refuse it, but wouldn't bother paying for it - the atmosphere is already 78% nitrogen and constant topping up will concentrate the nitrogen further (though do nothing for the moisture).

Ads will be deleted after 6 months.

The early generation Journeys clearly use a different system than the newer ones, but there may be some common DNA.

You CANNOT self install the OEM remote start on the second generation Journeys because the controller needs to be programmed with the sales code and the controller mated to the BCM by the dealer before the vehicle can be started - so I suggest chasing down the installation instructions for the early generation Journeys and reading them through to see what's involved for yourself.

The update adds no new features to the system and the update has no impact on North American radios, but corrects some minor issues with foreign language versions of the system.

So, no.  Your car won't start mirroring your phone's screen of you apply the update.

I missed this thread when it first appeared and given that my 2014 Canadian Crossroad has auto up and down front windows, I suspect that the feature became one of those relegated to the 'plus' version of the vehicle - making the base version somewhat lacking by comparison.
 
As to oil change intervals, the manual says the warning may come on at some point after 3,500 miles and to not travel more than 10,000 miles or exceed six months between changes.  Feel free to ignore your dealer.  They are simply out there trying to sell you as much as they can.

Homelink modules tend to be stand-alone, so it SHOULD be as simple as replacing the sun visor, though I have no idea whether the wiring harness has the connector to plug it in there - certainly there is power to run the makeup light, but is it the SAME power feed?  Does it have the same connector?

Worst case?  You resell it. 

The proper tire pressure is 36 psi all around.  The number on the tire is the absolute max pressure to meet the load factors - at the pressure you are running, it must be like driving on tires of steel - they have little 'give'.

I suggest you would probably benefit from a read of the owner's manual - they are available for download.  Just google "2014 dodge journey owner's manual"

If you decide go go for an eBay unit be aware that once a FOB has been paired to a vehicle it cannot be changed. You MUST buy a new, factory fresh FOB.

There is a way to restore maps to the unit (with, or without a cost, depending on the route you care to follow and how technically adept you might be), but even if your warranty has expired you *ought* to be able to get Dodge to fix it free since this is a persistent defect that began before the warranty expires (expired?) and was covered by an ineffective recall.  By the way, you ca download all the firmware and other updates you like from the uConnect web site - you've lost your maps and they are not included in any free download.

 
 
 
 
 
You don't need to replace the radio, just reload the mapping.  Once you've set up to reload the maps you can simply do it again when (not if) it loses them again.

On my last Journey, which had the small screen I simply put in a Garmin 3790, which is small and has voice recognition.  Because it didn't have an overhead console I put it above the mirror and fished the cabling down the passenger side roof pillar and connected it to the fuse block behind the glove box.

If you have an overhead console I beiieve that the smaller (4.3") Garmin devices (the 3790 is a 4.3" device) can be wedged into the glasses case and the wiring run down from there.

It MAY be possible to find switched power in the roof liner, which means that you wouldn't have to run the cabling down to the fuse block, but I'm not certain. 

The system works with three antennas and the sensor that is closest (strongest) to a particular antenna is assigned to the wheel in question.  Once all three have been determined, the fourth becomes obvious.

Sounds to me like you have an issue wither with an antenna, a connection to an antenna or with the vehicle's TPS sensor module.

The R/T comes with the 8.4" display standard these days.  And I could never find the wiring in my Crossroad which also came with the 8." display.

Strangely the pins in the connector at the rear of the radio module dedicated to the video input  had wires in them, suggesting they were there, but for the life of me I couldn't find the other end.

I had purchased the 2011 kit so I ran the wiring to the front and had my dealer make the connections when I brought it  in to have the sales code added. 

All years use the same size . . . .

I'd wager that the mechanism is dislocated/broken/whatever

The backup light?

On my '11 I had a lever ahead of the recliner release that adjusted seat height.
 

The camera can be added to the 4.3 using a 3rd party device that costs a lot more than it should.  Adding uConnect navigation would require you to swap out a whole bunch of parts - in theory not complicated, but it depends on whether your vehicle already has Sirius and Automatic Air conditioning and it is pricey to do with factory new parts; more reasonable with salvage bits.

As much as Fred came off as sarcastic the reality is that it probably is simplest to trade the vehicle and get what you wanted - or at least the 8.4" display.
