What owners wrote
The contact owned a 2017 Dodge Journey. The contact stated that while driving at 70 MPH, the instrument panel began to behave erratically, after which the vehicle inadvertently lost motive power, prompting her to attempt to quickly veer to the shoulder of the roadway. As a result, the contact was sideswiped by another vehicle on the driver's side. The air bags did not deploy. All warning lights were illuminated. The vehicle was towed to a tow yard and deemed a total loss by the contact's insurance provider.
I just became aware that a recall was made for my vehicle, a 2017 dodge journey. Last year I had an accident in norristown, pa after my car failed to stop or slow down while attempting to turn left with cruise control activated on a city street. My vehicle went up a hill, over a couple of fences, before stopping against a tree. A few inches further right and my 17 year old daughter might have been badly hurt or killed.
