I recommend this car
Now, I did just purchase this car, just a couple of months ago, and even though it's an older car, it only had 55,000 miles when I bought it, and I purchased a 5-star warranty as well. First, I'm probably being a bit bias, b/c I'm a Dodge fan, due the Nitro I had previously. But so far, the other reviews I've read are pretty much spot-on. Mine has the 2.4L 4-cylinder. It's not as good on the gas mileage as other 4 cylinders, from the Reviews I had already read, b/c the Journey is heavy, but for me, it's also less to fill up than the 3.6L, 6 cylinder Nitro I owned previously. I also wouldn't take it on any sharp turns either. As other reviews had said, the engine does make some noise, but it's not that big of a deal to me. However, unlike the other reviews I had read, I have plenty of space as a driver, it's not as compacted as I thought it would be, but the cargo space has plenty of room, just like I've read. The infotainment system is really good too, just like the reviews I'd read had stated. I have SIRIUS, don't know how, I'm not paying for it, but if it's a feature with this car, fantastic, BB King's Bluesville station is on constant play, as other stations are too. It doesn't have the vehicle backing system nor an AUX connector that most cars now have, but it's a 2015, and the Journey wasn't Dodge's most elite model either. However, so far, I'm growing into this car, and glad I purchased it. I'll probably get the Hornet next. Ha.

I hate this car now I loved a year ago
I've had my car almost year, it's been broke down most of that year. Problems we can't seem to figure out. The check engine light is on and off . A light for traction comes on the car with squiggly lines . It makes the car jump. This seems to happen when the car is hot. We've put a lot of money into it already only to be able to drive it four days here, two days there . I'm so upset I’m paying for a car that I don’t get to drive. Something simple is blocking my car from moving.

Solid SUV
I've had my 2015 Dodge Journey AVP for 4 and a half years now and I've Never had any mechanical issues what so ever. Just normal wear and tear, like tires, an alignment, wiper blades and oil changes is all I've had to do. I gets pretty good gas mileage and handles snow like a champ, being front wheel drive. I'd recommend this vehicle to anyone wanting a good reliable SUV. It's not like my Denali that I lost in a rear-ended crash, but it's a solid vehicle!!!

Nice Vehicle, but they QUIT making them!!??
We loved this car as my wife ordered it for herself for a Retirement Gift to herself! Had a "FEW" problems, but all got fixed! Not sure WHY Dodge quit making this model. They NEEDED to UPGRADE IT and it would have SOLD BETTER!

Handles alot of driving very good
This suv is so spacious in seating which does take away from trink but I have 3 rows that seats up to 8 people all with seatbelts. My 6ft. Son can get in and out without any problems. Nice radio for factory, my version was equipped with bluetooth but does have a aux port. Overall I'm pretty satisfied with it.

Most reliable car I’ve owned love it
It’s comfortable it needs a bit more leg room in the front otherwise no complaints definitely get one with a roof rack if possible if you have a bigger family will come in handy

The engine is not good.
I have 90,558 miles on my car. The engine started making a ticking noise, I had it looked at and was told unless the back bearing is replaced the ticking will not stop. Apparently this is an ongoing problem with thecJourney. I'm sure that Dodge is aware of this and hasn't recalled. What a shame I really liked my car. I will not be recommending or purchasing another Dode.
