Brakes & Rotors Out After 18 Months!

I just read all the reviews and wish I had BEFORE we bought this car... I have accepted the minor problems (broken visor, inconvenience of early recalls, and panic alarm going off when using the keyless entry); but the expense incurred for brakes and rotors going out after 18 months is just NOT acceptable! And to be told it is a "normal wear and tear" problem not covered by warranty adds insult to injury. I wish dodge understood that people buy new because they don't want to deal with these types of problems. I don't know how to do it, but I am hoping someone reads this and know how to get a recall effort going because this is seriously concerning!

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.

This car has been nothing but headaches and stress. A ticking noise coming from the engine, per dealer rocker arms replace. Making same noise toke it back said Chrystal redesigned the rocker arms and replaced them again. Still making noise, per Chrystal this is the characteristic of the rocker arms and I have a life time powertain warranty. That's crazy. Why would they redesign something to make the some noise?? I pursing the lemon law. FIX THE PROBLEM!!!

My wife says this car drives itself and she is not far from the truth. It has it all, and has gotten rave reviews from all of our friends who have seen it.

Ever since we have had this vehicle one thing or another has been happening. The mirror where you can put you glasses dropped down and would not stay up. We have had to have a new part ordered for that. The prop that hold the hood up came out and a piece came off so we have had to order a new piece for that. They tried to put it back three times so we finally took it to another dealer and they ordered a new part. Just this morning my husband raised the hood and a piece fell off that cushions the hood when it goes down. It is minor things but we are really unhappy with all these happenings. We have to drive about 40 miles to the dealers to keep getting it fixed.
