Journey with Dodge Journey

2017 Dodge Journey Crossroad Plus 4dr SUV (2.4L 4cyl 4A)
10 of 10 people found this review helpful

It's great value for the price. Our Crossroad Plus had all the boxes ticked and has all the technology we wanted in an SUV that can seat 7. The only negative so far is the backup camera. The image is not very clear (quite fuzzy, in fact). Still does the job but we've had much better backup cameras in other vehicles.

Love my the comfort and space in my journey. Was so excited when we purchased it but we had it for 2 weeks started making noise in front end and has been in shop for 3 weeks. They still can’t figure it out. As of today they are replacing my tranny in my 2017 Dodge Journey that only had 1000 miles on it. Not to sure what to think of it. The dealership has been amazing but not happy with vehilce

2017 Dodge Journey 20,000 mile review

2017 Dodge Journey Crossroad 4dr SUV (2.4L 4cyl 4A)
6 of 6 people found this review helpful

Bought it used with 3000 miles from a Dodge dealership in late 2017. Had my pick of over 10 of these SUVs used as loans and rentals After all the haggling total drive off cost of $15,321.86, which was not bad. It had the stock 4 cyl. engine which will do the job hauling loads or a trailer of less than 1000 pounds. Performance is fair, certainly not a race horse. It will get you from point A to point B. My Journey has minimal electronic stuff as I use Goggle map off of my phone and listen mainly news radio for info and traffic reports. No maintenance issues so far. I get a little wind noise from the roof rack, which I recommend. If you have lead foot the transmission is not the smoothest. Seating comfort is good. Carrying capacity is fair. Visibilty out the Journey is not as good as it should be. Installing 3" convex mirrors in the corners of the stock mirrors helps. Gas mileage on the street is what i consider poor. Taking several 250+ mile trips (especially to Vegas and local national parks), I averaged about 30 MPG (speeds 60 to 65 up the steeper inclines and 75 on the downhill side, which is decent. I strongly recommend using synthetic motor oil over regular motor oil. Mileage increase was about 1 mile per gallon. Bottom line if you are price driven a decent SUV for the price I paid for it compared for what they wanted for the similar sized Honda, Toyota, and other makers.

My Journey

Excellent value, smooth ride and handling with the best cargo space in the class. Very good sound system with on the steering wheel controls helps keep your eyes on the road, not the radio. Nothing else on the market matches the features with the price. Recommend for any space hungry family.

Step Up for a Journey

Traded in my 2002 Ford Edge Ranger. As much as I loved that old pickup I do have to admit the Journey is a step up. I drove the 4 cycl Journey and it was ok but lacked in responsiveness when I needed the power. However, the 3.6L V6 Crossroads plus is just that a PLUS. I look forward to many, many years and many, many outings with this Dodge.
