I have had my Journey for about a year now and my brakes keep failing. I have had the rotors resurfaced many times and replaced brake pads and yet I only have 39,000 miles on it and its a 2009. I think there is something worong with the design or engineering of the setup.

my wife loves the vehicle, but have had issue after issue since driving it off the lot. transmission rattles 35-50 MPH, it can't seem to find the right gear. almost feels like you're driving a standard shift while in the wrong gear. wheel and seats shake during acceleration. also had multiple oil leaks, pulling to the right, a brake problem, and multiple rattles. local dealers have been great and acknowledge the problems, but Chrysler has been useless. i feel like were the dodge test pilots. multiple visits and rentals are getting old. would not recommend buying this or any other Chrysler product until they learn how to treat there customers. have filed lemon law with local dealers help.

I purchased my 2009 Journey in Sept. of 2008. I had 13,000.00 mile on the car when my breaks went. The dealership said they are not covered. My driver side heat seat burns my back and doesn't heat your butt. While driving I heard a huge bang like I hit something and then the heat seat (drivers) stopped working. My car won't go over 45mph, it was putting and when I got to the dealership they told me it was fine.This is bull crap! Passenger side window does not go up from the drivers side button. It's ok for them to sell you the car but they don't want to cover anything. this is why I bought a brand new car so I wouldn't have problems. that's all I have. seat fabric is horrible.oil lt. always on
PLEASE DO NOT PURCHASE THIS VEHICLE

Purchased a 2009 Journey new in June 2009. Since this time I have had never ending problems with this vehicle, and I am NOT exaggerating. Here is a list of what was wrong with it: 6/2009: Air conditioning stopped working and needed system replaced. 9/09: developed a water leak causing mold in interior and rusty seat frames. 10/9 Both vanity mirrors broke. 1/10 water leak returned and at this point car smelled like a musty wet dog. Dealer "fixed" again 6/10: Transmission went and needed replaced. 3/11 Both exterior mirror paint was peeling: were painted. Both exhaust tips were rusting badly and exhaust was replaced. But dealer installed new exhaust with bent tips. cont.....
