We bought the Dodge Journey because it was a great value, it was big enough for our family of six and it got better gas mileage than a mini van. The seats are very versatile, but with all seats up, the car's blind spot doubles. The rear-most seats combined with the middle seat, block more than half of the rear window and all of the side windows. And the middle seats are difficult to return to an upright position when someone has to get out from the back. The stow bins are so shallow and small that they are practically worthless. The car seats are not the most comfortable, mainly because the headrests are too far forward. Since I have written this review, both middle-seat track systems have broken and had to be replaced. Fortunately, this has been within warranty and the rails have been fixed. I do believe that they are now easier to move back and forth. The "stow" areas are very shallow and can't hold very much, though the middle seat stows are nice for when I need to leave my purse or electronics. However, I will say that all seats go into a "down" position very nicely and I was able to fit a 17' extension ladder in the back with just a bit of the packaging intruding between the driver and passenger seats, so it has a very nice cargo capability with all the seats down. We have had very few recalls on this vehicle and no major problems with the transmission or engine at this point. We get about 22 average mpg when we don't use a/c. It drops to 18 mpg with a/c. Now that I have three teenagers, one who is a boy, the far back seat is not comfortable because there is so little leg room.

I bought this vehicle new in 2014. I bought the SE model because of the price and fuel mileage. The reliability has been great and the comfort is good. The only down sides are the fuel mileage is no better than the v6 and it's slightly under powered for a vehicle this size. Also when the 3rd row seat is up the cargo room is very small. Overall am happy with my journey. I would buy one again but would step up to the next package with the v6 and the upgraded systems.

Bought a 2013 journey 2 months ago. I traded a 4x4 for this AWD....was hesitant that I could get up my driveway in the snow (we live up a steep hill) but was pleasantly surprised at how well this did in snow. Handles great, rides well and am getting about 25 mpg. My only complaint is I have trouble getting the seat situated to be comfortable (mine doesn't have power seats). Otherwise love it.

This American Value Package is a deal. You get options included that cost additional from other manufactures. The car is great in the City and handles the Interstates well. I can't think of a better car with options for this price. We did not take the third row seating as it eliminates all the storage in the vehicle except for a space about the width of 1 suitcase standing on end. We are only two people and use the car to transport ourselves primarily. However, we take 2 grandchildren on occasion and need the storage behind the seating. I am not sure haw this effects the acceleration but mine get up and goes pretty good!
I love my journey!

Not sure why there are low ratings. I am a 5ft 1in female, with two children. The hight of the seats make it very easy to put the children in. The door open a full 90 degrees. I keep it as a five passager vehicle with the back row down. But love I can add two seats when needed. My car has the words, nav, heated stirring, heated seats, blue tooth, and so much more. There are four hidden compartments from stowing drinks under the floor by the middle row as a cooler, to under the front passager seat for confidential items you want out of site. All seats but the dricers fold flat for largw items .Like I said I'm in love! The only thing my car doesn't have that I'd like is an automatic life gate. Other than that I have no complaints. My husband fits more than comfortably in the back, he even love my vehicle.
