I own a 2012 Dodge Journey Crew AWD and I have very few complaints about this vehicle, one of them being that the seats (cloth) are not very comfortable, but I have learned to live with them. However, the other complaint that I have about this car is a peculiar squeaky, squishy sound coming from the front and rear suspension at low speeds in uneven surface parking lots that will make the car rock or more so, when the front wheels are turned and the car is dipping as in leaving the main road and turning onto a side road where the suspension becomes active, low speeds only! Bad bushings perhaps? Anyone experience this problem? The car has only 31,000 miles but I've heard these noises from early on during the first year of ownership. I went back to the dealer while under warranty and they informed me about a service bulletin stating that the front strut tower mounts were to be replaced. Nevertheless, that did not solve the problem and I sort of accepted/forgot about the squishy noises, however, they seem to have gotten louder lately, and so that is why I am writing this letter to the forum. Any help in this matter would be greatly appreciated! Stringslapper

Thanks journeyman, I have already spoke to the dealer and he understood what to do when I showed him your reply. I'll be bringing it back to him when my rear end seal comes in.

I would also like to have my daytime running lights enabled. Unfortunately, I had it to the dealer twice and still no dice, I really haven't gotten a definitive answer of why not either. The last eight digits of my VIN are as follows: CT312845. My mileage is 20,800. Anyone's help would be greatly appreciated!
