  1. For me this only happens when I try to lock the car using the lock inside the drivers door as I'm getting out. It doesn't happen when I get out and either push the lock button on the fob or push the button outside the drivers door with the door closed.
  2. You have the option of upgrading the brakes. In this same forum check out Successful BIG BRAKE upgrade on 2011 Crew. When I owned a early 2012 (before they changed the brakes to a larger system) I used this to upgrade the fronts to bigger rotors/pads.
  3. Yep just happened to me as well. Going to dealership tomorrow to order replacement radio.
  4. If the dealerships would step up and make it right for their customers, none of us would have to put you through this. Fortunately, there are still people like you who go out of their way to be helpful.
  5. Journeyman425, you've helped more people in this forum than any dealership I've ever dealt with! Thanks again for all that you do for DJ owners. You da man!
  6. Journeyman425 Glad to hear that you got your DJ back! Can you check ET279029 With 10k miles for DRL?
  7. Like most of you I'm hooked on sat radio. I don't remember the last time I listened to regular radio. I was able to get the subscription renewed for a year at a little over $100 USD by calling the following number: 866-635-2349. Told them i wanted to keep All access but couldn't afford $200. The cust serv put me on hold for a minute or two and offered me a year for $130 after taxes.
  8. So if the vehicle was not already built with the option, it can't be added by calling corporate and asking them to add it at their end? In the future, maybe not have it as an option on the Uconnect so folks don't have an expectation that they can have drl activated. Not sure why this has to be a point of angst between the consumer, the dealer and the corporation. If the user wants to have DRLs, they should be able to get them.
  9. The download problem has to do with the Internet explorer browser. I found using Firefox or Google chrome corrects the issue.
  10. Well, I didn't just "sit back" as you put it. I asked the POC on the other end if they had everything they needed and was told they needed nothing else. In my line of work, you must check and double check everything otherwise, people are unnecessarily put in harms way. If you'd read the entirety of my post, I became frustrated after being told this was being handled. If it were up to me, this would've been handled long before it came to where we are now. A manufactorer's design defect should not fall on the consumer to have to spend additional monies to correct.
  11. Update, never heard anything back from dealer or corporate (even after I was told this would be taken care from corp as a goodwill gesture) I suspect Dodge/Chrysler is not alone in not making it right for their customers especially when the fault is solely on the manufacturing. As much as I love the DJ, being jerked around is enough for me to say this will be my last Dodge!
  12. Please take a look at my thread about rental reimbursement. There's an RRT for this very issue. The problem is the cylinder head is defective and will need to be replaced. Even if they don't want to use the RRT, this will be covered by the powertrain warranty.
  13. Rented a vehicle from Enterprise from Monday to Friday costing $199.00. DJ was dropped off Monday and picked up Friday. Was told by someone I'm assuming was Peterson's Dodge service manager after pressing the issue that he'd have his boss call corp to request reimbursement but they never called me back as promised. Spoke with cust serv rep at corporate named Jessica who informed me that the dealership would have to cover this.
  14. I was told they were out of loaners when I dropped off the DJ
  15. 2012 dodge Journey I had the left cylinder head replaced (under power train warranty) due to a p0302 MIL which has been a common manufacturing problem with many of the 2011 and some 2012 DJs. Has anyone whose had major engine work been able to get reimbursed for cost of rental while your DJ was in the shop? If so, what did you have to do? Already spoke with both the dealer and corporate and received no approval. Doesn't seem fair to have the consumer pay for a manufacturer problem. There is also a RRT for this ame issue Not a recall, an RRT (Rapid response transmittal) .....dealers are supposed to run the vin any time you in for service, and do any of these that show up. Not a common thing. Good for customer satisfaction.It was PCM flash update for false codes Flash: MIL Illumination P0441, P0300, P0301, P0302, P0303, P0304, P0305, P0306, P0420, P0430, P113D, P113E, P0133, P0153 OVERVIEW: This bulletin involves selectively erasing and reprogramming the Powertrain Control Module (PCM) with new software. MODELS: 2012 (JC) Journey **2012 (JS) 200/Avenger** NOTE: This bulletin applies to **JC** vehicle equipped with a 3.6L engine (sales code ERB) built before November 15, 2011 (MDH 1115XX) or **JS vehicle equipped with a 3.6L engine (sales code ERB) built before December 16, 2011 (MDH 1116XX).** SYMPTOM/CONDITION: The customer may experience a MIL illumination. Upon further investigation the NUMBER: 18-004-12 GROUP: Vehicle Performance DATE: January 28, 2012 Technician may find that any of the following Diagnostic Trouble Codes have been set. a. P0441 - Evap Purge System Performance b. P0420 - Catalyst Efficiency (Bank 1) c. P0430 - Catalyst Efficiency (Bank2) d. P0133 - O2 Sensor 1/1 Slow Response e. P0153 - O2 Sensor 2/1 Slow Response f. P0300 - Multiple Cylinder Misfire g. P0301 - Cylinder 1 Misfire h. P0302 - Cylinder 2 Misfire i. P0303 - Cylinder 3 Misfire j. P0304 - Cylinder 4 Misfire k. P0305 - Cylinder 5 Misfire l. P0306 - Cylinder 6 Misfire m. P113D - O2 Sensor 1/1 Slow Response (High Frequency) n. P113E - O2 Sensor 2/1 Slow Response (High Frequency) Updating the software will correct the conditions listed above. DIAGNOSIS: Using a Scan Tool (wiTECH) with the appropriate Diagnostic Procedures available in TechCONNECT, verify all engine systems are functioning as designed. If DTC's other then the ones listed above are present record them on the repair order and repair as necessary before proceeding further with this bulletin. If a customers VIN is listed in VIP or your RRT VIN list, perform the repair. For all other customers that describe the symptom/condition or if the technician finds the DTC, perform the Repair Procedure. PARTS REQUIRED: Qty. Part No. Description 1 04275086AD Label, Authorized Modification REPAIR PROCEDURE: NOTE: Install a battery charger to ensure battery voltage does not drop below 13.2 volts. Do not allow the charging voltage to climb above 13.5 volts during the flash process. NOTE: If this flash process is interrupted/aborted, the flash should be restarted. 1. Reprogram the PCM with the latest software. Follow the detailed service procedures available in DealerCONNECT/TechCONNECT, Refer To Group 8 - Electrical > Electronic Control Modules - Service Information > Module - Powertrain Control > Standard Procedures > PCM/ECM Programming. 2. After PCM reprogramming, Clear any DTC's that may have been set in other modules due to reprogramming. The wiTECH application will automatically present all DTCs after the flash and allow the tech to clear them
  16. Will the production camera work with the RB5 without having to get a lockpick?
  17. I have replaced the pass side piece twice, once at the dealer and once from a mopar site. Honestly, it wasn't much cheaper getting it online after paying shipping. If it breaks again i probably won't replace a third time.
  18. Don't worry about this, when one of the tires spins faster than the others (uphill on snow and ice) it'll throw the light. The next time you start the DJ it should turn off, at least it does for me. Another situation that'll throw the code is putting the spare tire on as its a different diameter.
  19. Well... If you wanted the radio to fit a Dodge Journey I dont think it will. Appears the radio came out of a Charger.
  20. http://www.driveuconnect.com/system/2012/dodge/journey/touch43sreb/. This radio has the SAT function. The RHA radio didn't. Not sure what else to tell you. Doesnt seem like they're telling you the whole story to me.
  21. Seems a little misleading in that you stated it was a 4.3s (S refers to satellite on my radio) but, looking on the Uconnect site the RHA radio doesn't have a SAT capability. As I said before, my understanding of capable (combined with it saying when properly equipped) means additional equipment has to be installed for SAT to function.
  22. I think this means a satellite tuner will need to be added to the existing radio to receive Sirius/xm programming. I'd check with the dealer to be sure.
  23. Ok so looking at this a little more it appears that i will only have Sirius on the RB5. SiriusXM radios were only included on a few 2013 vehicles (your Ram 2500 included). Oh well, so much for MLB play by play.
