Glancing at some issues with the 2010 Dodge Journey, the exhaust gas recirculation (EGR) valve doesn't seem to rank high on the list. However, it does tend to fail from time to time, so there are some things that you should know to look for. For example, you may notice a rough idle, engine knocking, and reduced fuel economy. These, accompanied by certain diagnostic trouble codes (DTCs), may be indicative of issues. If you need to replace, you'll be looking to spend between $200 and $250 for a new EGR valve. Having it professionally done adds another $100 or so in labor costs. All in all, it's a relatively simple and moderately inexpensive fix for a problem that may cost you much more down the road if you don't look into it.
