2012 Dodge Journey Review

By KBB.com Editors
You'll Like This Car If...

If driving a minivan flags a big red check mark on your "no can do" list, but you need the kind of room and versatility a minivan provides, the 2012 Dodge Journey might be the answer. With a

You May Not Like This Car If...

The 2012 Dodge Journey is nice vehicle, but it is not as modern or well-equipped as a Ford Explorer or GMC Acadia. Compared to a Honda Pilot or Toyota Highlander, the 2012 Dodge Journey does not hold

How it Drives

The 2012 Dodge Journey crossover might look like a tall SUV, but its ride and handling characteristics remind us more of driving the Dodge Avenger sedan. Careful attention to the 2012 Dodge Journey's suspension and steering calibrations give it a nice balance between agile cornering ability and comfortable, quiet ride. We were surprised how rapidly the Journey responded to steering inputs, and even when pushed hard into sharp turns the Journey exhibited only minor body roll and lean. With all three rows occupied, we discovered our front-sea

"I have a 2010 Dodge Journey SXT AWD, which I never wanted. I had a 2008 Dodge Grand Caravan that got totaled from a very horrible accident. I had to settle for the Journey (bank was picky.)I now have 88000 miles on my car, and I've never really had any trouble with it. I drive about 80 miles a day and average about 23 mpg. I love how cold the a/c gets even on the hottest days, it is a very comfortable vehicle. My Journey has never let me down, I do not regret buying it. I just got a new job which will bring my daily mileage up to 200 miles a day. I will be buying a brand new Journey very soon."

"I bought this 2010 Journey used with only 19000 miles. After owning it for just 6 months had to replace back brake and roters. At 30000 the AC started making a horrible noise and eventually stopped working and had to have condenser replaced ($1800). It was covered under the extended warranty I had purchased. Now, here we are 4 months later and the AC has stopped working again and its not covered under warranty ($875). Dodge has horrible customer service and they DO NOT stand behind their vehicles. Oh and the transmission is slipping from 3rd to 4th gear and will eventually stop shifting all together. AND the brakes and roters need to be replaced again. Often times the car won't turn on until I remove the key and move the shifter a bit. Here I am stuck with a car that is losing value rapidly and I still owe a lot on it. Biggest mistake ever, will NEVER buy a dodge again."
