53 Car Stall problem of the 2012 Dodge Journey

Failure Date: 08/20/2017

My vehicle has been constantly stalling out while in motion and it is unsafe to drive. My vehicle also picks up speed randomly without excelling the gas pedal. I have a family of five and due to this issue we are having to borrow other vehicles. Its sad that Dodge has not done anything about this issue as I see 100's of people have been making the same online reports. I have one year left on this vehicle and was so happy until this issue arose. I do not want to start over with a vehicle & due to so many complaints I feel like Dodge should at least waive down payment deposits to get these vehicles off the road before a huge lawsuit is done against them.

54 Car Stall problem of the 2012 Dodge Journey

Failure Date: 08/18/2017

The car stalled on me a total of 3 times when coming to a stop at busy intersections with cars coming up behind me fast. I took it in a total of two times, to no avail. They stated they could find nothing wrong. The second time I took it in was after a week of very sketchy engine trouble (where it almost stalled numerous times) and the last 2 times it had stalled on me. When I got it back it drove much better, but yet they stated they didn't find anything. I have researched and this is not an isolated incident. I have a cousin who has a Chrysler t&c, same year and the same thing happened and again they could find nothing (they are the same engine. ) I have put a complaint into Dodge. I have my paperwork form service at Dodge, just unable to upload right now.

66 Car Stall problem of the 2016 Dodge Journey

Vehicle stalls randomly while decellerating, braking, stopped or driving. All electrical components remain operational (a/c. Radio, gauges, etc. ) but braking and steering become difficult. You must come to a stop, park and restart the vehicle. This has happened three times now, twice to myself and once to my wife. Two dealerships have found no issue so nothing can be done. I am at the end of my options and fear for the safety of my family. Please advise me of my options before one of us is hurt or worse.

67 Car Stall problem of the 2010 Dodge Journey

Failure Date: 06/07/2016

When I turned off the engine and removed the key and stepped outside the vehicle I noticed the engine was still running. Engine continued to run for 45 minutes to an hour. When I reentered vehicle to try the key again it would not shut off and was unable to shift the gear lever. The vehicle was at a clients location so I drove it home and parked it in the driveway where it continued to run for about an hour when I removed the key. I had the vehicle towed to premier of cape cod the only Dodge dealer on cape cod. I was told it was an electronic computer module. To replace the module with 2 new keys the cost would be $1,038. 00 installed. I submitted a safety claim with the Chrysler/Dodge regional office and was denied. I was offered a year of free oil changes and no reimbursement as vehicle warranty was over. The vehicle was a 2010 with 74,470 miles. My concern is that this could very well been a safety issue as vehicle kept running and could not be secured. It seems to me that this should have been issued a recall as upon investigating further this model and year had a history of this issue. A $1,038. 00 repair for a computer module is not your average issue/repair.
