  1. I thought I would post this here since its "kind of" interior. The weep holes in the doors, mine all have a small plastic sticker over them including the rectangular hole to the right side of the rear hatch. Water never drains from them except when I open and close the doors (big pain in the ass when your trying to detail/wax your car) and the rear hatch only drains when the hatch is in the full upright position (which makes for a nice trickle of water on your head when you go in there after a wash or a rain).

    Are these stickers supposed to be there or were they not removed at the factory and were supposed to be? What good do they do to trap the water inside the door?

  2. 2 weeks after taking delivery I have had a couple minor issues related to the transmission that a trip to the dealer will hopefully solve with a flash. Fit and refinement is good. Nitpicking a bit, the center armrest/console rattles a bit when my arms not resting on it, and rattles and squeaks drive me nuts. I have to take a look and see what I can do about that. Otherwise I am impressed so far.

  3. Yes. It lasts on a few seconds and disappears over 1800 rpm. If I accelerate more aggressively through 1500-1800 rpm in 3rd gear the sound does not occur.

    I have also noticed a bit of a shudder during some downshifts when just coasting coming up to a stop before applying the brakes

  4. At the top of third, if i am around 60km/h (4ph) there is a slight vibration and a sound like I am going over rumble strips (like the kind cut into the road when approaching stop signs on county roads).

    Is anyone else experiencing this? My journey is a 2012 R/T AWD Rallye. 4 days old. Only 160km. I just thought I would ask in case it was common with this tranny or with the AWD. I will be calling the dealer tomorrow.

  5. I honestly didn't even read the specs before I purchased it. My dealer had one on the lot and I drove it and signed the papers right after. Didn't find out about the stitching till a couple days later when I was reading the sales brochure. I wish I had of though. I feel as if I can't really refuse the vehicle seeing as I knew it didn't have the stitching when I bought it.

  6. As an aside, there's a banner at the bottom of the mobile theme saying "get the free IP board app" for this forum yet when you click it the app store says its $1.99. Is there really a free forum app or is the banner just wrong? It's a PITA having to sign in every time. I was hoping this forum was compatible with the tapatalk app but it's not.

    Sorry if this isn't the place to post this. I didn't see a dedicated folder for board questions.

    Thanks

  7. Hey everyone. Today I bought a 2012 R/T Rallye edition to downsize from my truck (2009 Dodge Ram SLT). Glad to be here!

    I will miss my truck, but I fully loaded the Journey so hopefully it will ease the transition.
