While driving in normal conditions on the highway, the vehicle brakes were applied and I began to loss control of the vehicle. The vehicle then flipped over on its side and airbags eventually deployed. I was taken to the hospital for potential injuries from the incident. No citations were given for the loss to indicate negligence on my end. I believe this may have been resulted from the current recall on the vehicle.

Journey will drive and turn just fine, then without warning it becomes extremely hard to turn or will not turn at all, especially on a right turn. It happens most often when going 20mph or less (even more often when backing up). I almost hit someone Saturday because it locked up in the middle of my turn. It has been happening several times a day. I took it to dealer before and they couldn't find anything they said. I dropped it off again today and told them to try driving it on parking lot slow and to back up and drive forward a few times because that is when it does it most, but they just pulled it in shop, so doubt they will do anything today either. It is dangerous. I have about 30,000 miles on it now and they say if they don't find it before it hits 36,000 then it won't be covered. It has a serious issue that needs resolving. Last time it happened was last night when I parked it in front of the dealer, but it has been doing it for a long time and becoming much more frequent. Thank you.

The contact owned a 2014 Dodge Journey. While driving approximately 85 mph, the steering wheel seized and the contact lost control of the vehicle. As a result, the vehicle rolled over four times and crashed into a pole. The air bags failed to deploy. The driver and front seat passenger sustained injuries that required medical attention. The rear passengers were ejected from the rear window and required medical attention. A police report was filed. The vehicle was destroyed. The manufacturer was notified of the failure. The approximate failure mileage was 30,000....updated 12/30/15 updated 12/31/15.

The car stalled on me twice nearly getting into a wreck. Took it to the dealership where I bought it from they put it on the computer. They said that they could not find anything wrong. Then about 21/2 weeks later it did it again. I have a print out of the computer analysis.

Journey 6-cyl

  • 3,700 miles
I was driving with my girlfriend. We just got over the top of a hill and going down hill at about 35 to 40 mph. The vehicle shut off. No power steering and no brakes. Stopped 5 feet from a telephone pole. Vehicle was towed to liccardi Dodge. They did not find anything wrong with the car. We were shaken up from the incident and I traded the vehicle in fearing for my life. I had only made one payment on the car so I had $16,000 of inequity. I traded it in on 9/29/14 not taking chances. I now have a huge debt on the new car because of this and huge payments. Very disappointed. Had the vehicle for 2 months.
