Transmission is known to fail like clockwork after 4-5 years, electrical malfunctions, tires are crap, transmission can't handle V6 and gets stuck around 3-4 gear if you have to pull out fast. Power windows have a mind of their own, high beams turn on by themselves and have to pull over to shut the vehicle off and on a few times to turn them off, NO room in 3rd row even for car seats, radiator and coolant hoses and pumps failed at the 4-5 year mark and total cost was over $5000, fob fails or the journey doesn't recognize it most times, alarm system goes off by itself.

It CLUNKS when shifting into gears. Dealership says it is normal, it is just air in the lines. Has anyone else heard this? Not very happy at all with this vehicle. Ready to trade it in on a Toyota.

I decided to get down to 1 vehicle. Got rid of a 2012 Malibu fully loaded and a 2006 Honda Element AWD. I wanted all the comforts of the Malibu and the space and AWD of the Honda. I narrowed down between Edge and Journey. For the price (and I get supplier discount for either), the Journey gave me more bang for the buck. dealer gave me a heck of a deal on a new Black version. Not a fan until I had them paint the calipers red. Only issue was the brake switch went out on a rear taillight. It stayed on or came on for no reason. It has done well this winter. I have been very satisfied as a driver. Passengers are not as comfortable in the front passenger seat.
