Used 2009 Dodge Journey Consumer Reviews
Nice Looking and um nice looking
I loved this car when I first saw it. Nice looking car and test drove good. Since it was first year model, there was no history. I wish I didn't buy it. Rubber pieces on outside of door just by rear tires fallen off. Replaced rear brakes at 40k and fronts at 56k. Both visor mirror covers have broken off. Stained seats can't be cleaned. Pass. window motor is shot. Had my engine computer flashed twice. I've had to change both inner and outer tie rods. I'm getting poor gas mileage. No where close to the gas mileage you're supposed to get. I'm already looking at trading it in. Too much plastic on the inside. Feels cheap. Although it's a 7 seater you can only put children in the very back.
Broken Record
We bought this car in December of '09 used w/ 15,000 miles on it after looking mainly at GMC Acadia's, this came along and I liked the look of it. The price was considerably less and it ended up being a same day purchase. I agree with many of the above comments, little interior things break frequently which is annoying but not a big deal. The BIG deal is the front brakes & rotors. We replaced them at 25,000 and are now having to replace them again at 36,000. We also got the calipers replaced at the same time as the first brake job since we were told they were sticking which was supposedly the cause of the first brake job. This time they have no excuse and it's the same shop.

This car has problems
We loved our Journey when we purchased it. Unfortunately there have been several recalls on this vehicle that we have been waiting on Dodge to correct for over 18 months. They claim that they are still waiting on parts to correct the issues. Drivers door power window module has now went out for the second time.
