We had our RT for 48 hours! Woman on a cell ran a stop sign in a rural area and we drilled her! The air bags performed perfectly.... I had a small contusion on my left knee and my wife has lingering aches in her chest from the shoulder harness. That's all. The car was declared a total loss and the crumple zones worked as they were engineeered to. We replaced it with an identical vehicle and hope to hell this one lasts a bit longer. We are both 70 years young!

I got my Journey in July 2009 and absolutely loved it until winter came. This car does not do well in snow or ice. I have gotten stuck 3 times this winter in just a light dusting of snow because of the front wheel drive traction control. We were parked on a small incline and it was a little slick and the wheels just spun. My husband had to get out and push until we got come traction. Also I was going through an S-curve and the road was again lightly dusted with snow and the back end started to swing around on me. I turned the wheel back the other way and it started coming back around the opposite direction until I came to the stop sign where the snow plow had salted the road.

bought the first rt journey with everything but sunroof loved it so much i bought another one on march24 it is black rt with everything besides nav and sunroof got a great deal, dont know of any problems besides when we got the new one when we parked it smelled like something was burning i figured it was from them changing the oil, but i saw other reviews about burning smell and plus it did it again when we took it home and parked it but other than that if it doesnt catch on fire we love everything about it.

I have had my Dodge Journey for a Year and love the car. It had been raining all day on Sunday and when my husband and I went to take friends out to dinner, the passengar side in the front was flooded with water. You could see where it looked like it ran down the door. Windows and door where shut tight and the overhead console when I turned the corner, had water running out as well. Have an appointment on Thursday. Hopefully, the car will not start to smell and they fix the problem. Will see how it turns out. Also, the car could get a little better gas mileage. It's almost like to much car for the size engine.

I am a Dodge die hard, bought the Journey after deciding that my 93 Dakota 4wd was out dated. Needed to keep a tow vehicle though as I have a small boat. Replacement vehicle needed to have decent towing capacity and all the latest safety features. So far this vehicle has proven to be very decent, good ride, extremely quiet, great interior storage. Like the radio controls on the steering wheel, very handy. V-6 very responsive, same HP as Dakota 318 v-8, this puppy will scoot when ask to, 6 speed trans works well. No towing info yet as hitch and wiring harness back ordered at dealership. I special order this vehicle and towing components should have been installed at factory, not the dealer.
