2010 Dodge Journey vehicle speed control problems

“It all started with no starts and had starter replaced and then charging problem had new battery and alternator replaced . Then driving to work all the dashboard lights lit up like a Christmas tree and died a couple of times once in the middle of the road . Even when the car was in park and key out of the ignition the lights on dashboard would light up , like the car never totally shut off?Replaced ecm afterwards thinking that was the problem but wasn’t the case (I still have the original ecm unit ) and still there was a battery drain , driving it and the lights lit up the dashboard and stalled out . You can here a buzzing sound after the car if off and key is removed ?”

“I HAVE BEEN HAVING PROBLEMS WITH THE HORN SOUNDING OFF ON ITS OWN. WINDSHIELD WIPERS RUNNING BY THEM SELVES. HEADLIGHTS FLASHING AND PROBLEMS WITH PICKING UP SPEED. I HAVE CHECKED ALL GROUND WIRES AND FUSES AND EVERYTHING IS IN TACK”

“TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2010 DODGE JOURNEY. THE CONTACT STATED THAT WHILE OPERATING THE VEHICLE, THE CHECK ENGINE WARNING LIGHT ILLUMINATED AND THE VEHICLE WOULD NOT PROPERLY ACCELERATE BEFORE EVENTUALLY STALLING. AFTER RESTARTING THE VEHICLE, THE VEHICLE OPERATED AS NORMAL HOWEVER, THE CHECK ENGINE WARNING LIGHT REMAINED ILLUMINATED. THE VEHICLE WAS TAKEN TO AN INDEPENDENT MECHANIC WHO WAS UNABLE TO DETERMINE THE CAUSE OF THE FAILURE. THE LOCAL DEALER AND MANUFACTURER WERE NOT YET CONTACTED. THE VIN WAS NOT AVAILABLE. THE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS 68,700.”

“THE CAR WILL NOT START ....I CAN JUMP IT ...GET IT RUNNING BUT THEN WITHIN 2 HOURS IT IS COMPLETELY DEAD I HAVE REPLACED EVERYTHING AND NOTHING IS WORKING FROM WHAT I HAVE READ THIS IS AN ONGOING ISSUE WITH THE DODGE JOURNEY AND THIS NEEDS TO BE FIXED BY DODGE ....THIS IS VERY VERY DANGEROUS BECAUSE IT ALSO WILL STALL OUT WHILE DRIVING IN THE MIDDLE OF THE ROAD....PLEASE PLEASE RESEARCH THIS AND MAKE DODGE DO SOMETHING...I HAVE HAD IT AT THE DEALER AND THEY SAY EVERYTHING TESTS OUT FINE WITH IT ....MY 16 YEAR OLD SON DRIVES THIS VEHICLE AND IF SOMETHING HAPPENS TO HIM BECAUSE OF THE CAR MALFUNCTION I WILL SUE THE [XXX]OFF DODGE !!!”

“WHILE DRIVING, ALL ELECTRICAL GOES OUT OR FLICKERS. THE CAR WILL SOMETIMES LOSE POWER ON ACCELERATION ABOVE 20MPH REGARDLESS IF TURNING, ON HIGHWAY OR NEIGHBORHOOD ROADS. THIS HAS HAPPEN A FEW TIMES SINCE LAST MONTH AND THOUGHT IT WAS MY BATTERY. I EXCHANGED THE BATTERY AND THE ISSUE WASNT RESOLVED.”

“AT TIMES MY VEHICLE WILL NOT ACCELERATE BEYOND 35-40 MPH. ONCE IT REACHED THIS SPEED THE VEHICLE SHAKES UNCONTROLLABLY. THIS HAS HAPPENED ON BOTH CITY STREETS AND THE HIGHWAY. I HAD TO IMMEDIATELY GET OFF OF THE HIGHWAY. IT IS VERY UNSAFE WITH A CHILD IN THE CAR AND I AM AFRAID TO DRIVE THE VEHICLE.”
