Headlights leak causing water to build up inside light housing usit.
Horn randomly honks (while in motion and while parked turned off), doors lock/unlock randomly (while parked) and the headlights and flashers go on and off (while parked). I pulled the fuse from the horn so that it doesn't honk while driving down the road or being parked in my garage overnight. Recently I have replaced the alternator and battery and the vehicle will not start in the morning after sitting all night long. I drive the vehicle to work park it and when I get ready to leave the office for the day the vehicle is dead once again. Something is draining the battery. . . We have nothing plugged into any outlets or cigarette lighters inside the vehicle. Even double checked that all interior lights are off.

Day time running lights. The Journey has daytime running lights installed but not activated. I contacted my local dealer and was told they are only activated if the car was sold new in a state that required them. The dealer said they can activate by hooking up their factory scanner but it would cost me several hundred dollars. I don't understand why I need to pay to have a safety feature that was installed at the factory activated. There is research that shows daytime running lights save lives and some of the states I travel to require that I turn on my headlights if I don't have daytime running lights. I discovered this right after we bought the vehicle used.

Headlight on passenger side does not work on high or low beams.

Driving on highway at 5:30 am with headlights on. Bright lights (high beams) came on by themselves. Would not turn off. Then would flicker off and on. Head lights stay on. This has happened numerous times since, performance Dodge (dealership where purchased brand new) said they had never heard of that. Checked for codes, found none. Bright beams have come on in daylight with no headlights on. This is the same car I complained about not starting. Still have that issue, last time was in Feb 2015. Performance Dodge ( where I purchased car brand new) told me to call a tow truck for a jump start. I told them this was the same problem over and over and they were aware of it, it wasn't a power issue. This last time in Feb. 2015, the tow driver said that it wasn't a power issue. He had his partner turn the ignition while he barely touched a wire bundle under the hood. Car started right up. Dodge still said no codes.
