How many miles will a 2014 Journey last?
The 263 mileages owners gave run from 5 to 297,000 miles. A quarter are at or under 19,000 miles, half at or under 54,717, three quarters at or under 92,000 and nine in ten at or under 123,000; 54 (21%) came after 100,000 miles, 14 (5%) after 150,000 and 4 (2%) after 200,000.
These mileages say when owners reported a problem, not when a 2014 Journey wears out. NHTSA's file holds only vehicles whose owners complained; one that ran without a problem never appears in it, so it gives no lifespan and no cutoff, and how a vehicle was maintained matters more than any one odometer reading.
Most of these reports came early in the vehicle's life: 209 of the 263 came at or under 100,000 miles. The 54 past that mark show the 2014 Journey still being driven at those mileages, not how many reach them: NHTSA's file counts complaints, not the vehicles on the road.

Common problems with the 2014 Journey
NHTSA's file holds 416 owner complaints on the 2014 Dodge Journey. Owners named the electrical system most often: 106 complaints, and half of the 71 that list a mileage came after 46,000 miles. A complaint can name more than one component.
| Component (NHTSA category) | Complaints | Listing mileage | Median mileage |
|---|---|---|---|
| Electrical System | 106 | 71 | 47,000 |
| Engine | 98 | 58 | 54,000 |
| Service Brakes | 80 | 40 | 40,000 |
| Air Bags | 46 | 35 | 65,000 |
| Seats | 43 | 26 | 68,988 |
Of the 416 complaints, 26 report a crash, 9 report a fire and 28 report an injury (38 people reported injured). These are owners' reports to NHTSA, not findings.
Is the 2014 Journey a good year?
Complaint counts cannot say whether the 2014 is a good or a bad Journey: they rise with how many were sold and how long they have been on the road. They show how the 2014 compares with the other model years in NHTSA's file.
With 416 complaints, the 2014 ranks 4th of the 12 Dodge Journey model years from 2009 to 2020 with 10 or more complaints, counting from the most. The most: the 2009 (1,594). The fewest: the 2020 (66).
Recent model years have had less time to collect complaints, so their counts are still growing. No year is ranked by mileage here, because a year's median mileage mostly follows its age.
| Model year | Owner complaints | Listing mileage | Median mileage |
|---|---|---|---|
| 2009 Journey | 1,594 | 1,115 | 61,914 |
| 2010 Journey | 1,085 | 833 | 70,906 |
| 2011 Journey | 169 | 136 | 64,600 |
| 2012 Journey | 377 | 269 | 78,000 |
| 2013 Journey | 353 | 236 | 72,000 |
| 2014 (this page) | 416 | 263 | 54,717 |
| 2015 Journey | 554 | 326 | 56,715 |
| 2016 Journey | 389 | 241 | 56,000 |
| 2017 Journey | 202 | 107 | 35,000 |
| 2018 Journey | 237 | 95 | 26,000 |
| 2019 Journey | 103 | 25 | 55,000 |
| 2020 Journey | 66 | 13 | 40,000 |
The linked 2015–2022 pages show NHTSA's September 15, 2026 collection, so their counts can differ from this table's.

What these figures can and cannot tell you
- Complaints are owners’ reports to NHTSA. NHTSA publishes them without verifying them: a complaint is an allegation, not a defect finding.
- The mileage is what the owner wrote on the complaint; NHTSA does not check it against the odometer.
- The make, model and model year are the ones on the complaint. NHTSA records them as filed, so a few complaints sit under a model year the name was not sold in.
- They are not a lifespan study. The file holds only vehicles whose owners reported a problem, so these figures do not say how long a typical 2014 Journey lasts.
- A complaint count rises with how many vehicles were sold and how long they have been on the road, so it is not a rating of the 2014 Journey.
- Nothing here describes one vehicle: its title brands, odometer readings, accidents and open recalls are in the records for its own VIN.
- 153 of the 416 complaints on the 2014 Dodge Journey give no usable mileage (blank, zero, a filler such as 999999, or over 500,000) and are left out of every mileage figure.
- NHTSA names counted: JOURNEY and JOURNEY AWD. NHTSA files some vehicles under several names (a series name and a trim name, for example); this page counts only these.
- Recall-file names matched: JOURNEY and JOURNEY AWD.
