Suspension problem #1

Hi I owned Journey 2015 since 2 years all of sudden I noticed some fluids red colour under the hood leaking drastically so I parked the vehicle at my driveway I came to know from my neighbours that they have a recall on there Journey 2014 v4.

Suspension problem #2

My Dodge Journey has less than 70,000 miles on it. At this point the entire rear drive shaft and all motor and transmission mounts have been replaced. They were all severely damaged. Tires show significant wear even though vehicle is within alignment standards. The far left vent (driver's side) blows cool air, but the other three front vents are blowing heat. There is a severe, loud roaring sound that has yet to be diagnosed. This is a ridiculous amount of problems in such a short time of vehicle usage.

Suspension problem #3

My catalytic convertor is bad, and I'm only at 85,286 miles. I can't believe this part is already bad on a 2 year old car. This happened when I was driving, and my check engine light came on. Nothing specific happened that should cause this issue. Also, my struts are leaking. I didn't even know this until I had my car checked at the dealership. Why are these parts failing already?.

Suspension problem #4

Have a 2015 Journey. Suspension has been replaced, cooling system replaced, and now transmission replaced. Seat belts keep not working right with lights coming on. Air conditioning will not shut off on it's own. Have had it to the dealer for at least 11 weeks so far this year at 5 different times. Still having problems with the steering wheel vibration over 50 miles, air conditioner not shutting off and vechile hesitates a lot. Gears do not shit correctly from park to reverse.

Suspension problem #5

The front suspension and sway bar with all attachments should be recalled. I am not sure if other 2015 Dodge Journey users have experienced this or not but since I got my car in 2016 I have had to replace all the parts on 4 different occasions. It is ridiculous and to me is a safety issue.

Suspension problem #6
