Worried owner

At times when turning key to start car will not turn over. After a few tries it turns over but it makes me very nervous. I took to Circle Dodge in Brick NJ and they said they could not duplicate condition nor could they identify my VIN number.

The ride with the appearance group/sports suspension is so smooth and quiet. The engine seems well mated with the six speed auto and once again is very quiet. I also like the drivers seat. I have manual lumbar, power adjusting seat, tilt telescoping steering wheel. The adjustments are almost endless.

I bought my Journey at 57K miles. After a week of purchasing it it was in the shop to get something replaced. Now it's been 26 days and I took it back to the dealership because the car wouldn't start twice. (sigh) I wish I would've read these reviews before purchasing this.

It was an easy choice after looking around at foreign crossovers. Sitting in the Journey, even without driving it, sold it to us. Roomy compared to it's foreign counterparts and extremely comfortable. It is a great transition family car for those wanting to move away from the "van" look yet maintaining the ability to transport your kids and their friends. Very happy with our first 1500 miles on it. Extremely comfortable and easy to drive. While some of the interior plastics aren't what I would call "quality" looking, they are functional and easy to clean and maintain. Wouldn't go back to the "van" for nothing!

Brakes/Rotors

I brought my car brand spanking new 2 whole miles on it. This Dodge Journey has given me nothing but trouble, at 21,000 brakes and rotors are completely gone?! Now I am researching and many people have the same problems. The dealers state that it is normal, no that it is not. There is a defect somewhere and somebody needs to do something about it.
