Changing the battery on a 2011 Dodge Journey…

Replacing the battery on a 2011 Dodge Journey took a little more work than I thought.

Some people said turn your wheel to the right to access the battery compartment, but that turned out to be a waste of time.  The owner’s manual didn’t show a picture so I had to find the battery myself.

This is how I did it (less than 30 mins).

Step by Step to change the battery:

• Pop the plastic tabs out from under the driver’s side fender…

• Jack the car (emergency brake), support with jack stand

• Take the wheel off

• Pull the front section of the inner cover out to reveal the battery compartment behind the bumper…

•  Change battery and reassemble in reverse order.
