2015 Dodge Journey SXT 4dr SUV AWD (3.6L 6cyl 6A)
Okay... I'm all about being fair in life... And Edmunds review of this car is WAY off... I've owned a 2012 Dodge journey for going on 3 years now. And to date.. I have not regretted my purchase once.. That's not to say there are not things I would change about the car. But for them to say the 3.6 six in this car is under powered?.. Is just plain b.s.. And I have the 2012(283hp).. The … 2015 has gotten a boost to 295hp. Ok.. This is not a race car.. And I don't treat it as such. But I am being honest here when I say I have on more than one occasion got on it at a red light and left other(some far sportier) cars in my dust... And it was not for lack of them trying. This car MOVES!!!
This car was maintained before I brought it.

I drive this suv as an Uber service vehicle, picking up and driving people to their locations. Here are the pros and cons that I see. Pros....Passengers always compliment on the inside design and how beautiful it looks and that its comfortable although there is a slight vibration that I notice when breaking. I never had an issue with this vehicle as far as reliability. I've owned it for … several months so far. I've had it inspected at oil change shops and they find no issues with this suv. Cons....the AC/Air comes on at random times but not all the time....it is rare, Im not sure if this is a glitch in the vehicle design in regards to climate control. The vehicle vibrates a little when stopping. These are the only gripes that I have while driving this vehicle for 7 months. It used to be a rental car so I am sure that it was well maintained. The storage space in this vehicle is also awesome. Too many compliments to give this ride a negative review.

I have owned 8 Dodges. It is only a 2015 and it has 115,000 miles on it. 50 miles ago, the transmission went completely out on it. I opened a case with Dodge in hopes they would grant repair assistance giving the age of the vehicle and the fact that I have been a very loyal dodge customer. They denied my request. If you want a sporty, attractive AWD Suv that will last only 100,000 miles … than this is the SUV for you. Do not allow it to get past the drive train warranty. The AWD portion of this SUV is by far the best vehicle I have ever driven in the snow of Indiana.
Still better than what the reviews say..

2015 Dodge Journey SXT 4dr SUV AWD (3.6L 6cyl 6A)
I was reading the Expert review on the Dodge Journey and on one of the Con's it said "Below-average fuel economy regardless of engine". I think the "expert reviewer" never drove the V6 engine long enough. Mind you I traded my 4-cylinder 5-seater small SUV from a Japanese car brand which had 140HP and it was giving me 15-17MPG! I was like driving a V8 truck with that MPG with far less … horses in the engine. When I had this Dodge Journey SXT V6 it was the most quiet SUV I had. My older car was like a monster truck inside. The trim is very nice compared to RAV4, CRV, Subaru, and Mazda! The sides of interior doors are not hard plastic it is wrapped in leather like trim which I've only seen in my brother's Lexus RX. I actually went one time to do test drive a few cars and while I was driving a top of the line Subaru Foreseter I was saying to myself my Journey is a lot better than this very expensive car. The space is just enough for 5 and 7 for some occassions. I have had 2 5'10" ride in the third row and they were sitting fine. And while having 7 adults does not lag this car at all. The 283HP penta is really nice on the Journey, it is actually the same engine to Dodge Charger V6. To me, the Dodge Journey is still the best value for the money 7 seater SUV. I hope they update it in 2018.
