UNKNOWN. System failed to warn me that a car was approaching on my blind spot and if I had the warning it could have prevented an accident. Had a warning been given allowing me to know not to cross the lane I would have been more aware of the car approaching my lane and then the automatic emergency braking system could’ve kicked in to prevent this accident from happening in the first place.

The 'Service Engine' light came on and the vehicle overheated 400 miles from home. The servicing Jeep dealer (Vision Jeep in Rochester, NY) stated the engine cooling fan failed, in the same manner as noted in Recall Campaign v54 for the cooling fan in 2015-2017 Jeep Renegades. My car is a 2016 Renegade, and the service manager was surprised my VIN was not included in the recall. He stated it failed in the same way as other recall repairs they did for the same model car, and was the same part that failed. I firmly believe it was a mistake that my VIN wasn't included, despite the model and year of my car being in the range of the cars for recall v54.

After work I got in my renegade Trailhawk and turned it on as usual to go home. Upon starting up the vehicle, warning lights came on telling me the headlights, tail lights, blinkers, daytime lights, tag lights, parking lights and back up lights were not working or out. I got out and inspected them only to see they were in fact all still functioning as should be. I got someone from the dealership to look at the issue and was told it would be alright, but definitely get the service department to look at it in the morning. I am having it inspected today by the service department and hopefully the issue will be resolved.

THIS CAR COMES ALMOST TO A DEAD STOP AND STALLS WHEN ACCELERATING. ITS DANGEROUS BECAUSE IT WILL STALL RIGHT AS I'M ENTERING TRAFFIC AND ATTEMPTING TO GET UP TO THE SPEED OF TRAFFIC DURING A TIME WHEN ALL OTHER CARS AROUND ME ARE ALSO ACCELERATING, IT'S HAPPENED SINCE THE FIRST DAY I BOUGHT THE JEEP I'VE ALREADY FILED A COMPLAINT. THESE ENGINES SHOULD BE RECALLED.

I BOUGHT THIS CAR IN MAY OF 2020. IT IS ABSOLUTELY RIDICULOUS THAT A BARELY 5 YEAR OLD CAR IS ALREADY SHIFTING HARD. AND HAS TO GO UNDER MAINTENANCE FOR THE TRANSMISSION. IT IS NOT JUST MY CAR, BUT OVER 75% OF JEEP RENEGADE OWNERS IS HAVING THIS ISSUE. IT IS UNSAFE. I NOTICED IT WHEN I WAS ROLLING TO A STOP AT A STOP LIGHT AND MY CAR JERKED FORWARD INTO ONCOMING TRAFFIC. LUCKILY NO ONE WAS COMING. IT COULD HAVE BEEN DEADLLLLYYYYYYYYYY!!!!!!!! FIX THE ISSUE. NOW I HAVE TO STOP FARTHER FROM THE LIGHT OR SIGN BECAUSE I KNOW MY CAR IS GOING TO LUNGE FORWARD. A 5 YEAR OLD CAR I HAVE TO TREAT LIKE ITS 20 YEARS OLD, I WILL NEVER BE BUYING ANOTHER JEEP ANYTHING AGAIN. I WAS AN IMPALA OWNER FOR YEARS AND NEVER HAD ANY ISSUES. EVEN WHEN MY IMPALA HIT 19 YEARS OLD AND HAD ALMOST 300,000 MILES. A 5 YEAR OLD CAR SHOULD BY NO MEANS ACT LIKE THIS. NOW AFTER DROPPING 12,000 ON THIS CAR I HAVE TO LEAVE WORK, LOOSE MORE MONEY AND GO TO AN APPOINTMENT ON THE 21ST TO SEE IF WE CAN GET THIS ISSUE FIXED.

MY PASSENGER SIDE FOG LIGHT KEEPS GOING OUT. I HAVE CHANGED IT 3X IN A VERY SHORT AMOUNT OF TIME. I HAVEN'T RECOGNIZED ANY PATTERN OR CAUSE BEHIND THIS. I'M SEEING ON FORUMS THAT BECAUSE YOU HAVE TO ACCESS THE BULB THROUGH THE WHEEL WELL, POSSIBLE MOISTURE MAY BE GETTING INTO THE COMPARTMENT CAUSING THE LIGHT TO GET WET AND SHORT. I'VE BEEN TO THE DEALERSHIP AND THEY WANT ME TO PAY A DIAGNOSTIC FEE AND SAY IT'S NOT COVERED UNDER WARRANTY. THIS TO ME SOUNDS LIKE A DESIGN FLAW AND I THINK THEY NEED TO FIX IT.

VEHICLE SHUTS OFF WHILE DRIVING AS WELL AS TAKING TURNS. JUST SHUTS OFF WITH NO WARNING. AFTER IT SHUTS OFF THE LIGHTNING BOLT IN PARENTHESES (ELECTRONIC THROTTLE CONTROL SYSTEM) COMES ON, THEN GOES AWAY. CAR SHOWS AS STILL RUNNING, BUT WON'T MOVE. SOMETIMES THE LOW OIL GAUGE COMES ON, BUT THE VEHICLE IS UP TO DATE WITH OIL CHANGES. VERY UNSAFE FOR VEHICLE TO JUST "STOP MOVING" OR "SHUT OFF" IN THE MIDDLE OF DRIVING, OR IN THE MIDDLE OF AN INTERSECTION. THIS HAS HAPPENED ON AND OFF FOR ABOUT 4 MONTHS, BUT NOW IT IS DAILY.

NOTICE A CHANGE OIL LIGHT STARTED POPPING UP ALTHOUGH I DID NOT NEED TO CHANGE OIL ACCORDING TO RECORDS I WAS NOT DUE TO CHANGE OIL UNTIL ANOTHER THREE MONTHS, I ONLY BEEN DRIVING THE VEHICLE AROUND 4900 SINCE I PURCHASED IT IN JULY 2020, THEIR LAST SERVICE WAS DONE AT THE DEALER ON JULY 6 2020 WHICH INCLUDED OIL CHANGE. ITS ON THE SERVICE HISTORY RECORD. I ALSO STARTED NOTICING A BURNING SMELL WHEN I GOT OUT MY VEHICLE SO I DECIDED TO CHECK MY OIL LEVEL AND TO MY SURPRISE I WAS 2 QUARTS LOW AT ONLY 58213 MILES THIS SHOULD NOT BE HAPPENING. I CALLED AND SCHEDULED TO GET IT LOOKED AT. ACCORDING TO THE DEALER, THEY ARE AWARE OF THIS ISSUE, SO WHY NOT A COURTESY CALL TO THE CONSUMER? I JUST DON'T UNDERSTAND THAT. I CAN UNDERSTAND IF THE VEHICLE ISSUED A WARNING LIGHT THAT STAYS ON AND WON'T GO AWAY THEN I WOULD OF DONE SOMETHING ABOUT IT, BUT IT WAS JUST A CHANGE OIL LIGHT AND WENT AWAY SO I THOUGHT IT WAS JUST REMINDING ME AND BEING THAT I WAS GETTING CLOSE TO 58,000 AND AGAIN ONLY BEEN DRIVING IT OVER 4,000 MILES SINCE LAST OIL SERVICE. MY FEAR IS THE DEALER MAY TRY AND HOLD ME LIABLE AND HAVE TO PAY FOR SERVICE FOR THE ISSUE BECAUSE I DID NOT TAKE THE VEHICLE IN RIGHT AWAY WHEN I SAW THE OIL SERVICE LIGHT FIRST APPEAR.

MY JEEP IS 4 YEARS OLD AND HAS 55,000 MILES. I LEASED IT BRAND NEW AND HAVE BEEN THE ONLY DRIVER. IT HAS NEVER BEEN IN AN ACCIDENT AND ALL OF A SUDDEN THE A/C IS HISSING AND NOT BLOWING COLD. I HAVE CONTACTED THE JEEP DEALER AND THEY SAID THEY CANNOT HELP ME SINCE IT IS OUT OF THE 36,000 MILE WARRANTY. I HAD IT DIAGNOSED AND IT SUPPOSEDLY HAS A LEAK IN THE CONDENSER AND ANOTHER HOSE.. I DID NOT DO ANYTHING FOR THIS TO HAPPEN. THIS IS NOT NORMAL TAKING INTO ACCOUNT THE MILES ARE SO LOW AND IT HAS BEEN CARED FOR SO WELL. I BELIEVE IT IS DUE TO FAULTY MANUFACTURING OR PARTS. THANK YOU.

MY VEHICLE HAS BEEN BURNING OIL AT AN ABNORMAL RATE. I HAVE TO TOP IT OFF SEVERAL TIMES BETWEEN OIL CHANGES. IT ALSO RUNS EXTREMELY ROUGH WHEN IN DRIVE/REVERSE, BUT NOT MOVING(STOP SIGNS, DRIVE THROUGHS). IF I PUT IT INTO PARK OR NEUTRAL, IT RUNS FINE. OCCASIONALLY, IT WILL STALL OUT WHEN COMING TO A STOP. I'VE HAD IT AT THE DEALERSHIP AND THEY COULDN'T FIND AN ISSUE. THEY UPDATED THE ECU AND TCU, BUT IT DIDN'T RESOLVE IT. MY VEHICLE IS NO LONGER COVERED BY WARRANTY NOW.

MY 2016 JEEP RENEGADE WAS INVOLVED IN AN ACCIDENT OCTOBER 4TH, VEHICLE TOTALED BUT NO AIRBAGS DEPLOYED EVEN THOUGH THE RENEGADE WAS ON AND THERE WAS A PASSENGER (BUCKLED IN) IN THE VEHICLE. HAD FCA RUN THEIR 'INVESTIGATION' THOUGH THEY WILL NOT SHARE THE RESULTS OF WHICH WITH ME EVEN THOUGH I'VE ASKED. THEIR RESPONSE 'YOUR REQUEST FOR OUR INSPECTION REPORT IS PROPRIETARY, PAID FOR BY US, BELONGS TO US, AND THEREFORE, UNAVAILABLE FOR DISTRIBUTION. IF YOU DISAGREE WITH OUR HANDLING, YOU CERTAINLY HAVE THE RIGHT TO HIRE YOUR OWNER INSPECTOR, AT YOUR EXPENSE, TO EXAMINE THE VEHICLE . WE HAVE CLOSED THE FILE REGARDING THIS MATTER.' BOTH MY INSURANCE ADJUSTER AND BODY SHOP (WHO ASKED FOR THE INVESTIGATION) STATED THAT BASED ON THE IMPACT (CRUSHED REAR AND DRIVER SIDE) SHOULD HAVE SET OFF THE AIRBAGS THOUGH THEY DIDN'T AND THE PASSENGER WAS INJURED, WHY WON'T THEY SHARE THE REPORT?

WHEN DRIVING THE CAR AND ENTERING THE ON RAMP TO THE FREEWAY THE CAR LOST THE ABILITY TO ACCELERATE. IT APPEARED THE GAS PEDDLE WAS INACTIVE AND THE CAR WAS IN NEUTRAL. IT NOTIFIED ME WITH A LIGHT "ELECTRONIC STABILITY CONTROL" THEN THE CAR SUDDENLY WENT BACK INTO GEAR. I WAS CONCERNED BUT WAS LEAD TO BELIEVE THIS WAS PART OF THE DESIGN. SUDDENLY WITHOUT WARNING AND FOR NO REASON AT 25K MILES THE BATTERY SUDDENLY DIED. ALL LIGHTS CAME ON IN THE CAR. IT HAD NO POWER AND WOULD NOT TURN ON. THE DEALERSHIP SAID "THE BATTERY JUST FAILED". IN AUG I WAS SHOCKED TO TURN ON THE CAR AND HAVE A MESSAGE THAT SAYS "CHANGE OIL" WELL BEFORE AN OIL CHANGE IS DUE. THIS WAS THE FIRST TIME I HAD SEEN THIS LIGHT BECAUSE I AM ALWAYS ON TIME WITH CAR MAINTENANCE. THE $84.77 SEEMS TO HAVE BEEN SPENT ON AN UNNECESSARY OIL CHANGE, IF THIS CONTINUES I WILL NOT BE ABLE TO AFFORD THE CONSTANT OIL CHANGES. MOSTLY RECENTLY AND MOST CONCERNING ON TUESDAY THE 29TH OF SEP. I WAS LEAVING FOR A MEDICAL APPOINTMENT AND WHEN I TURNED ON THE CAR IT SAID EVERY LIGHT IN THE CAR WAS OUT. MY NEIGHBOR CAME OVER AND VERIFIED THAT I WAS MISSING SEVERAL LIGHTS. THE CAR WAS INOPERABLE AND I WAS STRANDED. I WAS ABLE TO GET A RIDE, BUT WHEN I GOT HOME A FEW HOURS LATER, I TURNED ON THE CAR AND ALL THE LIGHTS WORKED PERFECTLY FINE. WITH THE ABOVE MENTIONED I AM CONCERNED FOR MY SAFETY, FOR THE SAFETY OF OTHERS I SHARE THE ROAD WITH, AND THE RELIABILITY OF MY 2016 JEEP RENEGADE

I BELIEVE I AM ENTITLED TO A NEW CAR JUST LIKE MINE, PAID IN FULL IN 2017. I DON'T KNOW HOW TO INCLUDE PICTURES *JS

THE TRACTION CONTROL ON THIS VEHICLE WILL ENGAGE AT RANDOM WHEN TURNS ARE MADE. WHEN THIS HAPPENS, THE VEHICLE WILL LOSE POWER AND IT'S MOMENTUM WILL CEASE.

I WAS MAKING A DOG LEG TURN MERGING INTO TRAFFIC, WITH THE LOST OF MOMENTUM I WAS HIT ON THE RIGHT REAR. THE TRACTION CONTROL ENGAGED THE DAY BEFORE AS WELL.

DRIVER REAR LIGHT (BACKUP, BLINKER AND BRAKE) LIGHTS STOPPED WORKING. WHEN I WAS CHECKING THE BULBS IT APPEARS THAT THE MIDDLE PIN ON THE WIRING HARNESS HAS CAUSED A SHORT THAT BROKE THE PIN AND ALSO MELTED SOME OF THE HARNESS. THE VEHICLE HAS 53,000 MILES ON IT. I LOOKED ONLINE AND THERE HAVE BEEN SEVERAL OTHER 2016 JEEP RENEGADES THAT HAVE HAD THE SAME ISSUE IN THE LAST YEAR. WE HAVE HAD INTERMENTANT ISSUES WITH THE LIGHTING SYSTEM FREAKING OUT BUT IT NEVER EFFECTED THE PERFORMANCE AND WOULD RESET ITS SELF AFTER ABOUT 25 MILES. THE DEALERSHIP WE TOOK IT TO SAID THAT THE VEHICLE NEEDED A SOFTWARE UPDATE WHICH THEY DID. IT SEEMED TO CORRECT THAT ISSUE AS IT HAS ONLY HAPPENED ONCE IN THE LAST 20,000 MILES OR SO. BUT THIS SEEMS TO BE A BIGGER ISSUE.
