What owners wrote
I was involved in a vehicular accident on monday, 10/01/2012 in a 2011 dodge journey. I have had several minor issues with the vehicle starting with the drivers seat failing to operate withthe electric controls, the glove box defect, the covers on the floor bolts especially on the drivers side slip off.
While driving down the interstate at approximetely 65MPH my dodge journey shut off and then restarted again. Luckily I was on a straight away at the time. While researching I found out that other journey's from 2009-2010 have had the same issue.
