Good Luck! as an FYI you do not have to use an attorney for the lemon law unless Chrysler refuses to deal with you. I bought a 2007 4 dr jeep wrangler and had a problem with it that warranted me threatening the lemon law. Chrysler ended up (after 9 months of negotiating) giving me my money back if I bought another vehicle from them. I ended up with this mess called the Dodge Journey. I have had problems with the electrical system, my gig, transmission and the leaky roof. I have had the transmission seals replaced, the sunroof replaced and a new ignition switch installed. I have had two recalls completed including the wiring harness and the lift gate and am currently having an issue with the TPMS light (tire pressure monitoring system) it will not go off. Mine is AWD with 19" tires and only gets 15-16 MPG. In general I am disgusted with the overall quality of this vehicle, overall it looks great and the seating is wonderful and if I was a girly - girl then that would be enough for me. For $30,000 you would think you could drive something that you could be happy with looking good and running well.

I do love my Journey but the 3rd row is kinda a joke a small child could fit but not a grown up. I do love the room in the front and in the backseat this is one reason we got it. I am 5'10 and my husband is 6'5 300 lbs so it is hard to find a vehical comforable for us both. We also have a baby on the way. Great for tall big people with room to spare. Lots and lots of storage space also!

I cannot remember exactly how I did it but it is in the owners manual. They all come with Fahrenheit for some reason.

There are two recalls for 2009 Journey: 1) wiring harness on some 3.5L vehicles; 2) power train control module on some Journeys. See http://www-odi.nhtsa.dot.gov/

Did you have any warnings .... like a weird burning smell? do you have heated front seats? The reason I am asking is that when I use the heated seats I smell a weird burning smell. Just started doing this and if my dealer was worth two beans and did not take 14 hours just to check something and I had to miss a day of work then I would have in in again...more problems than it is worth right now!
