2014 Dodge Journey Check Engine Light Codes

The 2014 Dodge Journey commonly reports codes for oxygen sensor faults (P0130–P0167), evaporative emissions system leaks (P0440–P0457), and misfires (P0300–P0312). In Denver, owners who bring their 2014 Dodge Journey to Larry H. Miller Chrysler Dodge Ram FIAT Denver receive precise OEM-level diagnostics that identify the root cause rather than guessing. Left untreated, an oxygen sensor fault will lower fuel economy and cause catalytic converter stress — a repair that can escalate from a modest sensor replacement into an expensive converter replacement. An EVAP leak left unaddressed can cause failed emissions tests and repeat service visits. Misfires can damage pistons and catalytic converters if driven extensively. Our certified technicians explain each code, the likely cost to repair, and the long-term consequences of delaying service, emphasizing immediate savings by preventing expensive downstream repairs. We also discuss warranty coverage — noting that warranty repairs must be performed at a certified dealership — and offer transparent estimates, OEM parts, and service financing.
