Bad fit/trim - Beware 19" tires

After having this vehicle for a few months, I really am not that excited over it anymore. Lots of interior fit/finish issues that lots of people having. The make-up mirrors on the visor, will be the first to break, very cheap. Watch out on your brakes, this vehicle will eat breaks in 10k, and warp the roters. I do work of a large rental car company, and they have major issues with this vehicle and its breaks. 19" Kumo tires, avoid the 19" option. The tires are cheap crap, went through 3, road hazards, thin sidewalls, soft tread, and you can't get the tires. Discount can get them, order only.

Was reluctant to buy Journey but was replacing a van and liked the style. So far is a great car. Avg mpg has been 24.5 with a low of 21.3 and high of 26.1. Ride is comfortable, quiet and steady. Just finished 1500 mile trip and loved driving the car. So far everything works including tire monitor which came on when I picked up a nail

Good Journey

Our Dodge Journey has been fun to drive. Recent recall not an issue with us. We are glad to have the issue fixed. We do not have children so our concerns are safety, fuel economy, and comfort while on the road. Fuel economy does me little good if I am too stiff to get out of my vehicle when I get to my destination. Chrysler has always had top notch interior comfort in my book.

Was very excited about buying this car but now have been let down have had the brakes done 3 times at 48,000 and they tell me its the way I drive. Both visor mirror covers broke off. Passenger window needed to be fixed 3 times. Diver door needed paint because the tape was peeling off. Had to have it brought in because the car would start but no lights, radio, or signals would work. And never mind bringing it in for the recalls. Will never buy Dodge again

I've had my Journey for 3 months and already have had the sunroof, power steering, transmission, and main wiring harnesses worked on. The oil light came on before 3000 miles and I got the recall about the wiring harness about the same time. I made an appointment and had the service department look to see why the car made a load noise when turning left. The Power steering was replaced and the transmission started slipping between 1st and 2nd gear also gets stuck in 5th gear and causes my mpg to be about 16.5. Now the the dealership is leaving it up to Chrysler to figure out.
