Go Reds 433 Posted September 22, 2020 Report Share Posted September 22, 2020 I have a 2016 Journey and all of a sudden the a/c will come on by itself. I only have 13,353 miles on it...yeah I don't drive much. Any one else having the same issue and if so what was the solution. I contacted Dodge and they said they were unaware of this problem. Thank you. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
5rebel9 Posted September 22, 2020 Report Share Posted September 22, 2020 What type system is in your Journey? Is it the auto temp or dual zone MANUAL system? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Go Reds 433 Posted September 22, 2020 Author Report Share Posted September 22, 2020 I have the auto temp system, and the setting is off of auto mode Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
5rebel9 Posted September 22, 2020 Report Share Posted September 22, 2020 Seems there are a number of threads started on this issue in this heading page. From what I can gather, it seems to be in the touchscreen or module software. I don't have any troubles (yet) like this as ours is the manual system. I'd suggest spending some time going thru established threads and see if any have "fix" info.....Good Luck! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

jkeaton Posted September 23, 2020 Report Share Posted September 23, 2020 (edited) The AC will come on automatically based on humidity levels in the cabin. Even if turned off in the manual mode, the AC system will remain active to prevent fogging. This is normal and explained in your owners manual.
