  I LOVE my car! - 2009 Dodge Journey
  By Leo - February 16 - 2:00 pm

  I have owned my Journey for just over 18 months. I love this car! I have about 18.5K miles on the car. I will have to have the brakes redone very soon, as they have not worn very well, but considering the weight of this car I am not surprised. I have OEM Kumho Solus KH-16 (225-65-19) and I have had no problems thru two winters in the Pocono Mts of PA!! They still have plenty of life in them and have been very reliable in snowy conditions. The only problem I have had was a leak in the AWD transfer case. Took it to the local dealer and had it replaced under the lifetime powertrain warranty. This car is VERY quiet, and is a pleasure to drive. Its a keeper for me!!

  Smooth Sailing until 15 months - 2009 Dodge Journey
  By kjsherman77 - January 10 - 5:53 am

  Overall we have really loved our journey. We purchased when they first came out and the first issues I had were the heat/radio/windows not working at random intervals (I would have to turn the car off and restart several times) The dealership couldnt find any problems with it. I also hear a weird noise when I make hard left turns and my dash vibrates when I go over 50 mph. The latest thing that makes me regret the purchase is that the front brakes/pads/rotors are completely shot and it only has 21k miles on it.

  Its OK - 2009 Dodge Journey
  By tg - January 4 - 11:53 pm

  The first weekend we owned the Journey the brake module went out and then during service found the cv boot was torn and about 2 months ago had to have the wrieless ignition or whatever it is replaced. Overall though it has been a good vehicle and the service has been great. Havent paid for a service yet nearing 11000 miles. MPG can get up there as long as your not in traffic but thats any. Got it based on room being we have two full sized dogs that ride in the back(no thrid row). Tranny whines a little too loud i think. But its quiet for the most part.

  LOVE MY JOURNEY!!! - 2009 Dodge Journey
  By DodgeGirl09 - December 23 - 3:43 pm

  I really havent had it that long, but I must say, for a crossover, you really get a lot of features and extras for teh price. It has a lot more leg room that it looks like from the outside. Drives smooth, and handles very well. I have seen in other reviews that customers were not happy with the way thinterior is made, that it is too cheap, but I disagree. Yes, its not a lexus, but for a mom driving her 5 yr old, and 17 yr old around, it is very sturdy and functional. Its easy to clean, and takes the abuse that my boys have to offer (LOL). Its also very easy to fold the seats down, or scooter them forward, very user friendly for a mom on the go!

  Think twice before buying another dodge - 2009 Dodge Journey
  By CL - December 23 - 12:10 am

  Bought this car in December 2008, went for a weekend in Moncton and got stuck on the highway came back in a towing truck we had the car for a month and the problem began. Went for a oil change, they told us that the tires need to be rotate what a joke they forgot to tied the last tire and we lost a tire on the road good thing we were not on the highway. After that then came another major problem we couldnt start the car sometime it start and sometime it didnt they change everything on it from the battery, computer, cable and the last one is that there is a leak of oil in the motor. No way there gonna sell me another Dodge I SHOULD HAVE READ THE REVIEW BEFORE BUYING

  Great Car for a Low Price - 2009 Dodge Journey
  By nywoman77 - December 14 - 4:23 am

  Ive had my Journey for two weeks now. I looked at many other vehicles and found this one to offer all the features I was looking for. It was the best price in its class. It has fair gas mileage for a vehicle of its size, weight and engine size. I think the space and convenient storage exceed any expectations I had. I cant wait to take it on my first road trip. All in all, its fun to drive

  NEVER EVER AGAIN! - 2009 Dodge Journey
  By Apache - December 13 - 12:50 am

  Ok I was so happy at first - never owned a car this nice......never judge a book by its cover they say....it has been in the shop for brake sensor recall, warped rotors X3! MIGIG crashed. Now its sitting in the driveway the past month pending Lemon Law for the rotors. Us brakes and rotors people got to find each other and DO something about it. We paid alot of hard earned money for this vehicle! Everyone else - dont buy one....just say NO!

  Excellent car for the price - so far - 2009 Dodge Journey
  By John - October 30 - 6:06 am

  We have owned the vehicle for about a year and have been very happy and impressed with it. The only disappointment is that it ate up the front brakes in 20,000 miles.

  Love my Journey but - 2009 Dodge Journey
  By Susan - October 25 - 3:56 am

  Bought my Journey over a month ago. Love the way it looks, love the way it drives. got it in green. Everything works good , except for that strange noise that occurs when turning left. Went to the dealership and was told they havent had any complaints about it. Not sure what it is but I sure hope my doesnt fall off. So far the gas mileage is good, but havent taken a long trip yet. Not really loving the plastic interior though.
