Used 2009 Dodge Journey Consumer Reviews
Regret
I had my car for a year and started having issues with it. It gets terrible gas milage. Had to have new break and rotors, new water pump, now the heater is being fixed. Not to mention all the "little" issues. Worste car I have ever purchased. The gas milage is terrible. Nothing like the sticker in the window when I bought it. I would not recommend this car to anyone.
Journey Problems
After the first 3 months of having my journey, it started having nothing but problems. It uses quart of oil every oil change. Transmission problems already, components falling apart or not working now, when filling up with gas it stinks inside it, no matter if u fill it up or put a couple gallons in. The antenna fall off when driving down the road. Which is not covered under warranty. After buying this, I would not refer this vehicle to anyone. Let alone purchase another chrysler/dodge vehicle again. Very unreliable and quality is very poor.

Family Truckster
This vehicle is by far the best in its class, and priced well for quality and performance it delivers. As many first set of brakes were replaced at 12K, but under warranty. Dealer adv that Dodge is making improvement to the brake pads soon. The V-6 with quick shift option is great. The national safety ratings are excellant. Only complaint city MPG could be better, but again my wife drives like she trying out for pole position in NASCAR. The under hidden storage, beverage (in dash), built in power converter, and recharging flash light, and rear doors that open 180 degrees are options you won't find in an import. Would by again..
Love my Journey
Love this Car!!! I drive a lot of miles every weekend, comfortable and enough room for the dogs kids and grandma's!!!
Great Family Car with Room to Grow
I love my Journey! This is our first crossover, moving up from a 4 dr car that just didn't have enough space with two car seats. I have 1500 miles on the odometer and average 22-23 mpg hwy, 19 city. Note that I accelerate slowly (don't get the RPM up to 3000 very often), coast when possible, use cruise, etc, to maximize fuel economy. If you like to rev it, don't expect to get great gas mileage. My 6'2" hubby and I (5'5") are both comfortable riding in this vehicle for extended periods. With the front seat pushed all the way back, there is still ample room for a toddler seat in the back. As for the blind spot, check your mirrors, turn and look, recheck mirrors, and it's not an issue.
