Buying the 2011 Dodge Journey
CarmaCars is a rental company and does not have the 2011 Dodge Journey for sale right now. Rent one for a week first, or ask us to look for one. Before buying the 2011 Dodge Journey, read what the figures say and how to try one first.
What to check on the Journey
A pre-purchase inspection at a shop you choose is money well spent. Ask the seller for the service records of this exact car. Check whether every recall was done, by the VIN, before you pay. NHTSA has 169 owner complaints on file, mostly about service brakes, electrical system and engine.
Engine and fuel
It runs the 2.4L 4-cylinder, with front-wheel drive. It runs on regular gas. Front-wheel drive is the usual layout for cars this size, predictable in the rain and the snow.
Rated at 10.8 L/100 km combined, it needs around 32 litres for a 300 km round trip. At our price setting, 1,000 km costs about $167.40. The EPA estimates US$3,050 a year in fuel for 15,000 miles.
What the Journey is like
Its SUV body gives a high seating position and an easy load height.
When the Journey makes sense
It suits anyone who needs a car for a few days, a week or a month without buying one. It suits people curious about the model who want to drive it before they buy.
Try before you buy
Rent the Journey first, and buy only if it fits your life. Drive the Journey on your commute before you commit to it. If the Journey is in our fleet, its page shows the rates; if not, a similar car helps you judge.
What it costs to run
Tires, brakes and batteries are the regular costs to budget for beyond fuel. The EPA estimates US$3,050 a year in fuel for 15,000 miles at US prices. At our price setting, 100 km costs about $16.74 in fuel.
Picking a year and a trim
Ask the seller which trim it is; badges can be swapped and options vary. Within the 2011 lineup, trims share powertrains or differ in equipment; the trim pages show which. Write down the VIN of any car you consider; it unlocks the recall and service history.
Over to you
Ask us anything about renting before you buy.
Rent it for a week before you buy
