  1. Mine did the same thing but I was able to jump it and then after that it worked great. It has happened to me 3 times and I just had my win module replaced 2 weeks agao. All good so far. Just make sure you have both keys with you when they change the win module as they need to reprogramm the car to accept both of them. I did not know this and the dealer did not say anything and when my wife went to use the car it would not start. Had it reprogrammed and works great.
  2. I have a problem where I can turn the key to acc and all my lights and everything come on but when I go to the run position it does nothing like it is dead. One time the auto start started teh car but the other two I had to jump it. I found out it is the WIN Module and they ordered mine last week. It is on back order until 12-12-08. I keep mine in a garage and seem to have the problem when it got cold and let the car sit for a day without driving it.
  3. I have only 7000 miles on it and thought it would be fairly easy to tell what piece was new just by looking at it ( no dust on it). I will take another look.
  4. When they apply this TSB what reservoir are they changing? I just took mine in for this repair and I had the car back within 45 minutes, they also said they retorqued the nuts on the exhaust in this time. When I got home I opend the hood and I could not find anything that looked new.
  5. mjm, I just left the dealer and they said they replaced the reservoir and they tightened the bolts which were loose for tsb 11-003-08. They did this in about 35 mins. Does that sound about right? As far as the cowl and TSB 23-027-08 he said that it calls for him to drill holes through the cowl and into the frame and secure it with screws. He also said being that it is a saturday they did not want to start drilling at the base of the windshield just in case they crack it, so I have to bring it back for that. He would not look into the WIN module today but will do it when I return to have the cowl issue fixed. They told me that it could be anything and that you were probably wrong about the WIN module and they cannot just order a WIN module unless the car is in the shop. So I guess when I bring it in for the cowl issue they will look at the WIN module and the NO start condition I have and tell me they could not find anything and nothing will get fixed. This is the standard procedure with this dealer. It seems they cannot fix anything unless you bring it to them 4 or 5 times. Was he right about drilling holes because I have seen in other posts about them replacing the cowl and clips, nothing about drilling holes. I also have a issue with the rear dome led light on the driver side is half light and flickers and an awful tapping in the engine that just started. I will have then check that out when I return in dec. Thanks again for the info and help.
  6. thanks, mjm also suggested this which is probably the same thing. "Vibrating at high speeds sounds just like a cowl screen issue. Ask the dealer to apply TSB 23-027-08. At the same time tell him to apply TSB 11-003-08 to check the exhaust just in case. I want to make sure he fixes everything in one visit."
  7. There are other complaints about this very problem throughtout the forums. It has been suggested that if you are experiencing this noise to have the dealer apply TSB 23-027-08. It seems to be a cowl issue.
  8. mjm48 thank you so much for the information. The last 8 didgits of my vin are 9T185961. I am bringing the car in tomorrow morning which is a miracle they are taken it in on a Saturday for warranty work, the dealer normally will not do any type of warranty work on a Saturday. I will ask them to apply both those TSB and to replace the WIN Module. I am just assuming that they will ask me to bring it back another day to apply the TSB and Win module, either way I will keep you posted as to the progress with the dealer. Off note, I have the my gig without NAV, I have sirius and I just saw there was an update to the radio software. Is this something the dealer is supposed to do? if so is there a charge? Or do I just need to update the radio myself? Thanks again.
  9. I live in NY which requires a front tag and when I bought mine there was not one on the car. the dealer checked his whole inventory and not one had one. We called chrysler and they said they did not make one for the car. Outcome was to drill it into the bumper as they had two dimples where the bolts go. I said to myself, what else do you expect from dodge.
  10. I did what the book said, turn the key step on gas peedle five times turn off and the indicator went off but within a minute it was back on everytime.
  11. vI have a 2009 Journey I bought back on June 9. I just received a recall notice from the dealer for Modification RRT 08-087. I asked the service manager on the phone what it was for and he told me it had something to do with brakes/powersteering and a cap of some sort. I was not to comfortable with his answer so I called dodge and they told me there was no recall for my vehicle and that if I got the noyice from the dealer, it wwas the dealer doing the recall. I asked dodge how could the dealer recall the vehicle and you dodge not know anything about it. Needless to say the non english speaking rep could not answer my question. I am wondering has anyone else seen this or had the repair completed? if so what is it for? On another note I am getting a vibrating/whistling sound coming from the front of the car when I am going 60-70 on the highway. It does not do it all the time but it is very annoying when it does occur. I thought at first it was my radar detector against the glass so I removed it but I still get the noise. I am not sure if it is the same as the howling noise as I have read in the forums because it is not really a howl, sounds almost like when you were a kid and stuck a baseball card in your bicycle tire spokes, that is what it sounds more like. Any one else getting this noise? Also on two occasions now i went to start the car and when i turned the key to acc everything came on fine but when I went to start the car, nothing. Completly dead. On the first occasion I used the factory installed remote start to get it started and it worked fine. I turned the car off and back on with the key and it worked as it should. the second time the same thing everything came on fine but when I went to start the car nothing, teh remote start did not work either. I would up having to jump the car to get it started. No lights were left on, not was the radio and it is garage kept. I turned the car off immediately after getting it going and tried the key and it worked fine. It has been 2 weeks and it still seems ok, anyone else have this problem? Just an FYI I had my first oil change down at 3500 miles by the dealer and at 5000 miles my oil change notice came across teh system notification screen on the dashboard. I tried resetting it several times. Everytime I reset it the oil change notification would reset but then about a minute later it would come back on. I took it to the dealer who kept it all day and they said all they did was reset the notification. I find it hard to believe that is all they did for the whole day and plus i did about 20 times over a three day period, has anyone else experienced this? Any suggestions on getting the dealer to check your vehicle for all service bulletins? I have been looking on line and see there have been radio upgrades and tsb's on the power steering fluid level but when I ask my dealer they say there is nothing for my vehicle. I feel like they are just being lazy and really do not want to do any work on it unless I complain about a specific problem. Is there a site that lists all the service bulletins? I would love to get a complete list and take it to the dealer and have them go over the car. Thaks for any information provided.
