Default First irritant on 2011 Journey...

....is that tiny hook that is supposed to keep the gas cap from hanging on the body paint! It doesn't! I cuss it every time I fill the tank. May require a replacement cover (provided it has a decent hook)......

More irritants to come if/when I discover them.....

I think this is a very minor problem but do what I did
that is a piece of black heat shrink tubing over the exististing
hook-heat with hair dryer.
Now you have hook the length you want and it's flexible.

I drive my mom's 2010 Journey once a week when I go over to take her out shopping, banking and general errands. She is coming off chemo and isn't comfortable driving herself yet. The single biggest complaint I have is with the cover on the compartment between the seats. It doesn't stay in place and I tend to rest my arm on it. When I accelerate, it slides back, when I brake, it slides all the way forward - VERY IRRITATING!!!

I guess the "tiny hook" is meant to hang the cap from via the cable. It works I guess but put a proper cap holder on there. Seems like an odd place to save $10.00.

The rear Bumper is the annoyance to me.


This corner would pop out when u tap on the bumper. Even tho you can pop it back in, but it is annoying.
