It's got its pros and cons

This vehicle is great on the highway the design of the vehicle on the other hand you roll down the windows or just one window and you get that helicopter sound I don't like that the third row seating is really difficult to get to I have adults trying to get into this thing and I have to put the kids in the very back because they're the only one small enough to get back there other than that the decent vehicle

2nd time I've owned one.

I like the versatility of the Journey. The seats fold down to carry items and it drives smooth like a car. Definitely opt for the V6. My first one was a 4 cylinder and the pickup was lacking. But the V6 is great with about the same fuel economy! The 3rd row seats are not practical for frequent use but work out ok for a short trip with 7 people.

Absolutely love it.

I would recommend it to anyone looking for a family car, or travel. It is fun to drive, handles well. The 6 cylinder is a plus. Great gas mileage. Comfortable seating. Lots of outlets for the kids electronics, front and back. Separate the climate controls are a plus. Could use a little more storage space.

Most reliable car I ever had.

This car is what I need. My old car always broke down in the worst time. The employee recommended to me. I used yo have a minivan and the car has 7 sits and up to 8. It's the best recommendation I had.

Newly purchased vehicle

This car meets all my needs and has so much room in it plus leather seats which is a plus. I love the exterior design of it and color. I’m glad I chose an suv and would never go back to a small car.

Seems to be performing well.

Good features for the price. Sufficient power with the V-6. No complaints. Have only owned for two weeks. Only downfall is the fuel economy. Dodge could work on improving it and the emissions output.

Happy with purchase

Has everything I need, nice size cargo area or extra seating for outings, has a slight hesitation in the engine but still moves right along. the large screen for the back up camera is a plus, and touch screen for controls are new to me and different.

Worst thing I ve driven since the 80’s

Just returned a rental. What a relief to give it back. Thirsty, gutless, and noisy. Screamed like a supercharger starting cold. Lights went off and on irratically. Car only had 23000 km on. Should be recycled soon. Shame on you, Dodge!
