The contact owns a 2015 Jeep Renegade. The contact stated while pulling the driver’s side door handle, the handle detached from the vehicle. The contact was not able to open the door and had to enter the vehicle from the passenger’s side. The vehicle was taken to the dealer and the contact was informed that the handle needed to be replaced; however, the contact had to pay out of pocket for the repair. The vehicle was not repaired. The manufacturer was contacted and was aware of similar failures, but no assistance was provided. The failure mileage 72,000.

While I was driving, my sunshade visor fell down as if it were moved to block the sun while I was driving (I did not do it). I immediately pushed it back up because I could not see, it blocked my entire front windshield vision. After pushing it up, it fell back down within minutes. I immediately took it out of the holder and put it to the side. After researching the issue it is a common known issue. Service advisors say "they all do that". My question is, why would such a dangerous issue be widely accepted? Is increased chance of accident and death acceptable when it can be fixed? I have stopped 23 separate people and asked them about their sunvisor and EVERY SINGLE ONE had this same issue (ranging from 2015 to 2020).

The contact owns a 2015 Jeep Renegade. The contact stated that the parking light was illuminated. The contact stated that the radio randomly turned on and off. The service powertrain and 4WD messages were displayed. The vehicle was taken to an independent mechanic who informed her that the failure was due to a software module update. The vehicle was taken to the local dealer but was not diagnosed or repaired. The manufacturer was not contacted. The approximate failure mileage was 150,000. The VIN was not available.

Put gas into jeep and cap broke off.

Cap-less fuel tank is broken, I was pumping my gas and pulled the exterior part off the cap-less fuel tank and It came right off. THAT SHOULD not happen

Battery went dead, vehicle was jump started as per guide protocol, then vehicle would not shift out of Park. Had to use Emergency towing and release the shift with the shift lever override as described in the manual. Vehicle will now only go into gear with screwdriver, but it still will not recognize it is in gear and will not move. Warning lights of service transmission. Battery changed, vehicle is just sitting, there is NO explanation as to what to do, dealerships have no clue. Vehicle will roll and cause an accident if not propped behind the tires. Through Jeep forum, it is noted that this is an ongoing issue with this specific year/make/model. The "fix" is over $2000, it should be a recall and the manufacturers responsibility since it is a known issue. Jeep USED to be a reliable, dependable brand, unfortunately, this is the last one we will ever own.

I bought a 2015 Jeep Renegade in October of 2021 (last year) and have experienced the vehicle stalling TWICE in the middle of traffic. I was informed of the recall by Carmax after the deal was drawn up and the vehicle delivered to me on October 4, 2021. I took the vehicle to Class Jeep in Arlington, Texas, (see attached documents) who refused to replace the engine of the vehicle – the reason for the Recall. I have done all that I can do and exhausted every means necessary to have the recall completed and the vehicle replaced or repaired to bring up to operating standard. I currently owe $21,000.00 on a vehicle that is non-operable. Carvana delivered the car with a rotted battery (paperwork attached); and, a faulty brake job (where new brakes had been put on top of bad rotors) which they felt $200.00 should cover the cost for a $1100 brake repair/replacement. Carvana also refused to replace the transmission on the vehicle which they identified as the source of the ‘stalling-out’ in the midst of traffic when the vehicle would not shift gears to accelerate. The justification was because ‘a module is on top of the transmission instead of inside of it’ and it’s not an engine problem; therefore, refused to repair or replace. Essentially, I have been told that the vehicle which is a safety hazard and threat to life is no longer their concern. Please advise – both the dealership and the manufacturer have taken the position that the operating problems of this vehicle is that ‘of the o

Transmission when driving it sticks in 9 gear. Loss power. Two years ago the value body was replaced, then 2-3 months ago it started the same loss of power dealer checked found nothing said to drive it see if it happens again.Two week ago took it back in to the dealer and they replaced the valve body for a 2nd time. Left the shop a few hours later the same thing happened again. Driving the highway and no power. Took it right back to the dealer on Saturday. Have not heard anything from them yet.The transmission service light goes on and the check engine light.

The contact owns a 2015 Jeep Renegade. The contact stated while driving approximately 10 MPH and attempting to accelerate, the vehicle failed to respond. There were no warning lights illuminated. The vehicle was taken to an independent mechanic and diagnosed with a software failure. The vehicle was not repaired; however, two rotors, wheel bearings, and motor mounts were replaced. The manufacturer was notified of the failure. The approximate failure mileage was 80,000.

The contact owns a 2015 Jeep Renegade. The contact stated that while her mother was driving 35 MPH, the vehicle unexpectedly shifted to neutral(N) without warning. The contact’s mother was able to shift back into drive(D). The vehicle was not diagnosed. The contact stated that the vehicle was experiencing the failure listed in NHTSA Campaign Number: 16V529000 (Power Train). The manufacturer was contacted and confirmed that the VIN was not included in the recall. The contact was referred to the NHTSA for assistance. The failure mileage was unknown.

Vehicle throttle lags from a take off causing dangerous conditions while merging on to highway and turning on busy city streets.

At 58k miles my check engine light came on and it was determined that it was throwing the code 0456 for a small EVAP leak. I took my Renegade to the dealership for a smoke test and had told them there is sometimes a strong fuel smell when driving. The first smoke test they claimed they couldn't find a leak but noticed a strong fuel smell coming from the rear of the vehicle. They performed one more smoke test and still couldn't find leak. Scheduled another appointment, software update was performed and code was cleared. 2 days later check engine light came back on and when fueling vehicle found gas leaking from the rear wheel well. Took Renegade back to dealership, where it was determined the leak was coming from the fuel filler neck. Paid $500 to have new fuel filler neck installed code was cleared only to come back on the next morning. It was determined it was throwing the same code 0456 for a small EVAP leak. Was advised I would have to have another smoke test done. Idle is really rough when sitting still. It is no longer leaking fuel, but still runs like garbage. Haven't been able to have a forth smoke test done yet because I can't afford it. I have already forked out almost 1k since this started almost 2 months ago. Was advised I should reach out to Chrysler as I have had the vehicle since new and have kept up with all maintenance. Warranty had been expired 4 months prior to this issue.

Vehicle was parked for a couple of hours on neighborhood street. Owner entered vehicle, shut driver door and then back windshield spontaneously shattered.

The drivers side fog light reflector was melted and charred like it was nearly on fire. There was no silver coating on the plastic reflector and it looks like the plastic was absorbing all the heat of the bulb.

While driving highway speed (55mph) I received a “transmission check” notification followed by “check engine” light engaging. Nothing felt different at this time. A few minutes later, I came to a full stop at a light. Upon turning green, I pressed the gas pedal to drive and the car revved, but would not move forward, as if stuck in neutral for about 10 seconds. If finally lurched forward and began to drive normally.

The vehicle engine has been shaking moderately since we purchased it. The dealer told us that is just the way the vehicle sounds and feels. Recently it has begun to shake more while stopped in traffic or at a light. The dealer told us the engine mount was broken. The vehicle has only 33,354 miles. This is a safety issue as the engine could become dislodged and cause an accident as well as the fluids would be a hazardous materials exposure endangering potential wildlife. Jeep originally told me it was covered under warranty and then later changed their mind. Either way it is a defective part of the power train and dangerous.

I recently had the exact problem that was reported under NHTSA ID 11309398. I wanted to report this since if it is happening to me and others, perhaps Jeep will consider a recall to fix this issue. I had to pay over $700 for parts and labor (my warranty expired 2 months before this happened!). It's a pretty annoying manufacturing/quality issue. I've never in 50 years of driving had this happen on any car. Issue described below. The cap leess fuel filler broke. I was filling up the fuel tank and when I went to remove the fuel nozzle from the tank, the cap less filler neck came out with the nozzle. Basically fell out. And there was no obvious way to repair it. I had to replace the entire mechanism since I don't want fuel sloshing out of my tank.

Excess moisture causing condensation freezing in the muffler assembly and not allowing engine to start. Was stranded for 2 days. Had Jeep towed to dealership after a few hours dealership was able to contact a certified jeep dealer and diagnose the problem. No warning lights on the dash came on at all not even the check engine light. In doing research and talking with dealership this is a very well known issue as well as there are service bulletins on this issue. as well as speaking with lots of people online they have had this issue as well. why is there no campagin or recall on this issue.

The contact owns a 2015 Jeep Renegade. The contact stated while driving 65 MPH after having a power train software update performed, the vehicle lost motive power and decelerated without warning. The contact pulled over to the side of the roadway. The contact restarted the vehicle several times while attempting to shift the vehicle into gear before the vehicle started operating as needed. The contact stated that the "Check Engine and Check Transmission" warning lights were illuminated. The vehicle was then driven to the residence. The dealer sent out a representative to pick up the vehicle to be diagnosed. The vehicle was diagnosed and the contact was informed that the transmission needed to be replaced. The contact informed the dealer that the vehicle failure was like NHTSA Campaign Number: 16V529000 (Power Train) however, the VIN was not included. The dealer confirmed that the VIN was not under recall. The vehicle was not repaired. The manufacturer was notified of the failure. The failure mileage was approximately 72,699.

Outside Temperature Sensor fail in temperature under 31 degrees which causes check engine light to come on and disables four wheel drive to engage while driving in snowy conditions. Took Jeep to dealership repair cost $600 for a vehicle I’ve only owned for 25 days with 51,000 miles, they informed me that later down the road I will have to repeat this process again because this is a very common expensive problem in Jeep forum.

It mostly happens in the morning. While I’m driving to work which is less than 5 minutes away from where I live. The car would just shut down while I’m driving, lights would flicker and the car will stop. I would have to wait a few minutes or more to restart the vehicle and the drives normal. I bought the car from Carmax in May or June 2021. They told me there were no recalls. I look up the problem I’m having and found a previous recall about the same issue, on the same year, make and model. Need help

In freezing weather the front doors of my vehicle will not always open and when they do the latch will not allow them to close. The mechanism is working but the door latch will not latch. I have video but can’t upload it.

The contact owns a 2015 Jeep Renegade. The contact indicated that while driving at various speeds, the vehicle lost motive power and stalled without warning. The vehicle was taken to the local dealer who indicated that the vehicle shut off due to low engine oil. An oil consumption test was performed, and no failure was found. The contact indicated that the failure persisted. The vehicle was taken back to the dealer who determined that the engine consumed an excessive amount of engine oil, causing the vehicle to shut off. The vehicle was not repaired. The manufacturer was notified of the failure. The failure mileage was 110,000.

The contact owns a 2015 Jeep Renegade. The contact stated that on multiple occasions the vehicle stalled due to a low oil level. The contact stated that there was no warning light illuminated. The contact also stated that the vehicle was consuming oil at an abnormal rate. The contact had taken the vehicle to a dealer where an oil consumption test was performed; however, no faults were found with the vehicle. The manufacturer was also notified of the failure and the contact was informed that there were no recalls on the vehicle. The vehicle had yet to be repaired. The failure mileage was approximately 40,000.

I had the factory clutch replaced on my vehicle with genuine dealer parts. After 3,000 miles the clutch failed while I was driving. That clutch was replaced with a new clutch under warranty and it also failed while I was driving after less than 300 miles. Both times the clutch failed without warning. When the clutch fails, the vehicle will not start and cannot go into gear. The first time I was turning onto a extremely busy highway and could not get my vehicle out of traffic. I am concerned that there is a design flaw in the replacement clutch parts that puts the safety of vehicle owners at risk.

6/24/21 I backed out of my carport & my car jerked me very hard like something shifted. All error codes & lights came on, air bag (which did not deploy) E Brake light was on, check engine & tire pressure the PRND light up simultaneously & flashed. I turned it off & back on, seemed fine I put in drive & drove in my circle driveway & suddenly it stopped accelerating even with me giving it gas then it took off & the E Brake came on. Thank GOD I was In My driveway & not pulling into traffic when this occurred. My husband tried again when he got home & it did the same to him would go then just stop accelerating mid drive & E brake come along with ALL the flashing error codes & I mean every code it can throw it did. It was like it was going in & out of limp mode & the E brake would come on when it wanted to mid drive. It has been in service since 6/26/2021 when it was taken by tow to the dealer, as it was unsafe to try to drive. I do have an extended mopar warranty & im told they have contacted Jeep engineering team but have NO answers. It’s been in their possession close to 40 days now. I will not feel safe at all IF they fix this car due to that incident. I would either be dead or badly injured.

While I was in the vehicle putting a 5 month old child in the car seat I had the door open. My wife was putting stuff in the passenger side door. Not thinking she got the remote start to cool the car off. Obviously the car wouldn’t start because the doors open. She tossed the keys in the center console like she normally does and shut the passenger door. I shut the drivers side rear door after placing the child in the car seat. All doors are locked and the keys are in the car. Unable to gain entry since we are not at home. 911 was called and police and fire showed up promptly and gain entry. The child is fine but we feel this should be addressed. I have been able to recreate the situation multiple times.

While putting my car in park to exit my vehicle, my emergency parking break activated and would not shut off. I tried resetting the car multiple times. Nothing released the emergency parking break. The car needed to be towed to the dealership where they informed me a "glitch" had happened in the parking system...

Shifter won't work (won't move out of park) after battery dies. My vehicle's battery died at the end of April, we assumed it was just an old battery and had it replaced by AAA. Last week, the battery died again (this also co-occurred with the key fobs not working...if that's helpful). After AAA charged it, we turned it on but it wouldn't shift out of park. We followed the manual instructions to manually shift it into Neutral but then we couldn't turn the vehicle off. Eventually it was towed to the dealership while it was still running...and they said that it needs a new shifter (+$1300)?! The vehicle was purchased new and this series of events (battery dying / shifter dying) seems to be a recurring event....in some cases owners have had it happen in really inopportune and even dangerous places. https://www.jeeprenegadeforum.com/threads/transmission-wont-shift-into-gear.98673/ https://www.jeeprenegadeforum.com/threads/stuck-in-park.103031/ https://www.reddit.com/r/JeepRenegade/comments/gkt6ov/will_not_shift_from_park/ https://www.jeeprenegadeforum.com/threads/service-engine-and-service-transmission.73290/ https://www.jeeprenegadeforum.com/threads/battery-died-and-it-all-went-bad.46762/ https://www.jeeprenegadeforum.com/threads/replaced-battery-now-having-issues.98907/ https://www.jeeprenegadeforum.com/threads/battery-died-transmission-won%E2%80%99t-go-into-gear.101187/ My concern is that as the 2015 (the first year) Renegades get older, many more vehicle's will need batteries

The transmission bucks when it shifts most of the time when the transmission gets warmed up. it is worrysome and I am worried for my safety.

THE CONTACT OWNS A 2015 JEEP RENEGADE. THE CONTACT STATED WHILE DRIVING AT VARIOUS SPEEDS, THE VEHICLE LOSS MOTIVE POWER AND WOULD NOT IMMEDIATELY RESTART. THE VEHICLE WAS TAKEN TO THE LOCAL DEALER TO BE DIAGNOSED. THE MECHANIC REPROGRAMMED THE ENGINE SOFTWARE. NO FURTHER INFORMATION WAS AVAILABLE. THE MANUFACTURER WAS NOTIFIED OF THE FAILURE. THE APPROXIMATE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS 15,000.

MY CAR WILL NOT STAY IN DRIVE. I WAS LEAVING A PARKING SPACE IN A PARKING LOT AND WHEN I PUT IT INTO DRIVE IT MOVED FORWARD AND THEN SHIFTED TO NEUTRAL ON ITS OWN. I SHIFTED BACK TO DRIVE AND IT WENT BACK TO NEUTRAL. IF I HAD BEEN PULLING OUT INTO TRAFFIC, SOMEONE COULD HAVE EASILY CRASHED INTO ME BECAUSE WHEN IT SHIFTED INTO NEUTRAL MY CAR NO LONGER HAD ANY POWER AND IT CAUSES AN UNEXPECTED SLOW DOWN.. MY CAR IS CURRENTLY AT A MECHANIC'S SHOP WAITING TO BE REPAIRED. IN RESEARCHING THIS PROBLEM WITH MY CAR, I HAVE FOUND OTHER JEEP RENEGADES AND CHRYSLER VEHICLES WITH THE SAME PROBLEM HAVE BEEN RECALLED FOR SAFETY CONCERNS. IF MY CAR IS DOING THE SAME THING, WHY IS IT NOT A SAFETY CONCERN? MY CAR IS CURRENTLY AT THE MECHANIC SHOP IT WAS TOWED TO, WAITING TO BE REPAIRED. AT THIS TIME, I HAVE NO PAPERWORK ON REPAIRS.

I PARKED MY CAR IN THE GARAGE ON A MONDAY GOT READY TO GO THE VERY NEXT DAY CAR STARTED BUT WOULDN'T GO IN GEAR AND THE DASH BOARD WAS SAYING SERVICE ENGINE AND TRANSMISSION THERE WAS NO WARNING ANY TIME BEFORE

ENGINE LIGHT HAS BEEN ON LIGHTING ON AND OFF. I WENT TO MECHANIC AND IT'S THE COOLANT THERMOSTAT. WHICH MIGHT BE AFFECTING MY INTAKE AIR TEMPERATURE. IN COLD WEATHER ENGINE LIGHT GOES OFF AND IN HOT WEATHER IT TURNS ON. THIS CAUSES MY JEEP TO STRUGGLE WHEN I WANT TO SPEND UP ON HIGHWAY. THE OTHER ANNOYING PROBLEM IS THAT WHEN I'M IN IDLE AT A STOP LIGHT THE JEEP SHAKES SO MUCH THAT I FEEL IT ALL OVER CAR. IT ALSO HAS A VERY LOUD NOISE TO IT. MY OTHER PROBLEM IS WHEN SOMEONE IS SITTING ON THE PASSENGER SIDE MY VOLUME TO MY RADIO GOES DOWN. NEVER FAILS. I HAVE TAKEN IT TO THE DEALERSHIP AND THEY TELL SOMETHING COMPLETELY DIFFERENT. I HAD MY JEEP DIAGNOSED 3 TIMES AND IT COMES OUT THAT IT'S THE THERMOSTAT. DEALERSHIP WAS TELLING IT WAS THE FUEL INJECTOR WHICH HAS NOTHING TO DO WITH COOLANT ISSUES. I ALSO HEAR MY TRANSMISSION CLICK HARD WHEN CHANGING GEARS FROM DRIVE TO REVERSE. IT IS AN AUTOMATIC TRANSMISSION.

MY FRONT RIGHT WHEEL COMPLETELY SNAPPED & MY TIRE WAS PERPENDICULAR TO ITS NORMAL STATE. THEY HAD TO REPLACE A HOST OF PARTS INCLUDING THE FR AXLE, STRUT, STRUT MOUNT, MOST OF THE SUSPENSION. ROUGHLY 6MO AFTER THE REPAIRS MY JEEP STARTED HAVING A TROUBLING SOUND & FEELING WHILE DRIVING. UPON GOING OVER ANY KIND OF BUMP TURN REGARDLESS OF BREAKING SPEED, I COULD FEEL & HEAR A PART KNOCKING AROUND LIKE A JOINT WAS HITTING THE WALLS OF ITS BRACKET & IT AFFECTED EVERYTHING ABOUT HOW THE CAR HANDLED ANY CHANGE IN DRIVING CONDITIONS. I WENT TO THE TIRES PLUS I HAVE BEEN USING FOR A DECADE TO DIAGNOSE & THEY RECOMMENDED I GET THE STRUT MOUNT REPLACED BUT CAUTIONED THAT THEIR DIAGNOSIS WAS A GUESS AS THEY WOULD HAVE TO TAKE APART THE SUSPENSION TO SEE IF THE MOUNT WAS INDEED THE CULPRIT. I RECOGNIZED THAT THAT PART WAS REPLACED AFTER THE INCIDENT & IMMEDIATELY SAID WAIT, LET ME CHECK W/MY INSURANCE. I RETURNED TO THE FACILITY THAT DID THE REPAIRS & WAS TOLD THAT MY STRUT WAS 'BRAND NEW' & 'PERFECTLY FINE' BUT THAT MY SHOCKS NEEDED TO BE REPLACED. I SOUGHT A 3RD OPINION - WHO DEDUCED THAT THE PROBLEM WAS NEITHER PARTS BUT WAS ACTUALLY THAT MY ALL OF MY SUB MOUNT BOLTS WERE LOOSE & IT WAS CAUSING MY ENTIRE ENGINE TO MOVE AROUND... I WAS LIKE OK, AND WENT HOME, HOWEVER THE ISSUE SLOWLY RETURNED OVER THE COURSE OF 6-8 WEEKS & THEN 1 MO AFTER THE ANNIVERSARY OF THE ORIGINAL REPAIRS I HEARD A LOUD POP/CRACK. MY FRONT RIGHT STRUT COMPLETELY SNAPPED! I CANNOT SHAKE THE FEELING THAT ITS MORE.

SINCE I BOUGHT THE JEEP, IT WOULD SOMETIMES SHIFT REALLY HARD FROM 1ST GEAR & THAT WAS AT 47K MILES. NOW I AM AT 55K & IT IS DOING IT FROM 1ST, 2ND, & SOMETIMES 3RD. OF COURSE, JEEP HAS MADE IT SO THAT I CANNOT EVEN CHECK MY TRANSMISSION FLUID, MUCH LESS ADD ANY BECAUSE THEY MADE IT A CLOSED UNIT. I'M SHOCKED THAT WITH ALL OF THE COMPLAINTS I HAVE SEEN ABOUT THE "JERKY" "HARD SHIFTING" "SLIPPING" THAT A RECALL HAS NOT BEEN DONE ON THIS, CLEARLY, FLAWED TRANSMISSION SYSTEM.

MY CAR'S RADIATOR FAN STARTED RATTLING AND AFTER LOOKING FURTHER INTO THE ISSUE, I FOUND ENDLESS SOURCES OF OWNERS OF THE SAME CAR AS ME THAT HAVE HAD THE SAME ISSUE. IF NOT DILIGENTLY ACKNOWLEDGED AND FIXED, THE RADIATOR FAN MOTOR WILL EVENTUALLY GO OUT. THIS HAS CAUSED SMOKING AND FLAMES AND CATASTROPHIC ENGINE DAMAGE. THE SOUND HAPPENS WHEN MY CAR IS IDLING AND STOPPED IN FIRST GEAR. TO AVOID THESE COSTLY AND DANGEROUS EFFECTS OF WHEN THE RADIATOR FAN MOTOR DOES FAIL, I HAVE BEEN UNABLE TO DRIVE MY CAR. CLASS ACTION LAWSUIT CASE 2:19-CV-10417-NGE-EAS HAS BEEN FILED, BUT NO FURTHER UPDATES HAVE BEEN RELEASED.

SINCE I OWNED THIS JEEP I COMPLAINED AT SERVICE THAT THE TRANSMISSION SEEMS STRAIN AND WHERE A CHANGE IN GEAR SHOULD NATURALLY HAPPEN, THE ENGINE WOULD WHINE AND WHINE AND THEN EVENTUALLY SHIFT GEARS. I WAS ALWAYS MET WITH SERVICE MEN WITH NO RESPONSE. SINCE THE VERY BEGINNING I WAS TOLD THAT THE ENGINE BURNED CONSIDERABLE AMOUNTS OF OIL, AND I WOULD NEED TO MAKE ADDITIONAL SPECIAL APPT SAND BRING IT IN TO MAKE SURE I HAD OIL IN THE ENGINE?THE CONSOLE ABOVE MY HEAD WHERE THE INTERIOR LIGHTS AND THE SUNROOF SWITCH IS THERE ARE RED LIGHTS THAT LIGHT UP FROM TIME TO TIME INDICATING WHAT/ AND WHY ARE THEY LIT? ANOTHER QUESTION UNANSWERED BY THE JEEP SERVICE DEPT OF ROCKLAND CNTY NY.NOW THAT MY JEEP IS OVER 150,000 MILES THE ELECTRICAL IS SHOT. THE CHECK ENGINE LIGHT COMES ON AND GOES OFF FROM TIME TO TIME. THE 4WHEEL DRIVE SPORADICALLY WORKS, SAME WITH THE SUNROOF CONTROL AND THE DRIVER SEAT LUMBAR AND POSITION CONTROLS ON THE DRIVER SEAT. ONLY WORK WHEN THEY WANT TO

THIS VEHICLE HAS STALLED WHILE DRIVING IN THE HIGHWAY 3 TIMES NOW. IT ALSO CONSUMES MORE OIL IN A MONTH THAN MOST CARS CONSUME IN 20 YEARS. IT IS AN UNSAFE CAR THAT IF NOT FIXED WILL RESULT IN DAMAGE, INJURY OR DEATH. THIS CAR NEEDS TO BE RECALLED AND FIXED ASAP.

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2015 JEEP RENEGADE. THE CONTACT STATED THAT WHILE DRIVING VARIOUS SPEEDS, THE TRANSMISSION WAS SLIPPING WITH THE CHECK ENGINE WARNING LIGHT ILLUMINATED. ADDITIONALLY, WHILE DRIVING THE VEHICLE STALLED. THE VEHICLE WAS TAKEN TO EMPIRE LAKEWOOD NISSAN (14707 W COLFAX AVE, LAKEWOOD, CO 80401, (303) 232-8881) WHERE THE DEALER REFERRED THE CONTACT TO CHRISTOPHER'S DODGE RAM (16655 W COLFAX AVE, GOLDEN, CO 80401, (303) 238-7311) WHERE THE VEHICLE WAS TOWED TO BE DIAGNOSED 6 TIMES. THE CONTACT WAS INFORMED THAT THE THERMOSTAT, FOUR WHEEL DRIVE SWITCH, AND MODULE NEEDED TO BE REPLACED. THE VEHICLE WAS REPAIRED HOWEVER, THE FAILURE RECURRED. THE MANUFACTURER WAS NOT NOTIFIED OF THE FAILURE. THE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS 69,976.*DT On 2/22 vehicle had faulty transmission. It was the 7th time vehicle had stalling issues.

MY JEEPS RUNS OUT OF GAS AT 1/4 TANK. NO LOW FUEL LIGHT COMES ON. THIS HAS HAPPENED ON MULTIPLE OCCASIONS. (I.E. WHILE ON THE INTERSTATE GOING 65MPH, IN CITY TRAFFIC)

THE TRANSMISSION SHIFT VERY HARD LIKE A BUCKING BRONCO FOR LACK OF BETTER WORDS. THE VEHICLE HAS BEEN TO THE DEALER WHERE I PURCHASED THE CERTIFIED USED VEHICLE. IT IS A 2015 JEEP RENEGADE AND THE PROBLEM IS THE 9 SPEED AUTOMATIC TRANSMISSION. I CAUSES JERKS WHEN SHIFTING AND WHEN STOPPING CAUSES A BIG JERK AT THE VERY END OF BRAKING AT A STOP SIGN OR LIGHT FOR EXAMPLE.

MY VEHICLE HAS STALLED ON THE HIGHWAY 3 TIMES AND THE TRANSMISSION IS VERY JERKY. THE DEALER DID AN OIL CONSUMPTION TEST AND SAID IT IS NORMAL FOR MY CAR TO CONSUME 2 QUARTS OF OIL EVERY 3000-4000 MILES. I HAVE NEVER OWNED A VEHICLE THAT USES THIS MUCH OIL. THE OIL WARNING LIGHT HAS NEVER COME ON INDICATING G THE OIL IS LOW.

I WILL START THIS OFF BY SAYING I'VE HAD A FEW PROBLEMS WITH MY 2015 JEEP RENEGADE INCLUDING A/C PROBLEMS, POWER OUTLETS(BACK SEAT 110V OUTLET, CARGO OUTLETS & BUILT IN FLASHLIGHT) SHUTTING OFF AFTER ONLY A FEW MINUTES OF USAGE. THE BLIND SPOT ASSISTANCE WILL RANDOMLY POP UP WHEN DRIVING SAYING 'BLIND SPOT ASSIST IS TEMPORARILY UNAVAILABLE' THE BIGGEST ONE BEING WHAT'S HAPPENING NOW WHICH IS WHAT I'LL EXPLAIN BELOW BUT TO INFORM YOU MORE I'LL INCLUDE THAT IT HAD 96K WHEN I GOT THE TRUCK AND HAD ALWAYS KIND OF HAD A JERKY FEEL WHEN SHIFTING BETWEEN GEARS WHICH I READ WAS KIND OF NORMAL, SO I DIDN'T PUT MUCH THOUGHT INTO IT UNTIL NOW. MY TRUCK WAS SITTING IN MY DRIVEWAY FOR 2 DAYS WITHOUT BEING MOVED AND WHEN I WENT TO LEAVE THE BATTERY WAS DEAD. I HADN'T LEFT ANYTHING ON, LIGHTS, RADIO, ECT. IT HAD HAPPENED A FEW TIMES BEFORE BUT I DIDN'T THINK MUCH OF IT TILL NOW. SO AFTER I CHARGE THE BATTERY LONG ENOUGH TO GET THE VEHICLE STARTED IT FINALLY FIRES UP BUT ALL THESE MESSAGES COME ACROSS THE SCREEN: CHECK ENGINE, SERVICE TRANSMISSION, BLIND SPOT TEMPORARILY OUT OF SERVICE, PASSAGEWAY ENTRY UNAVAILABLE, ALONG WITH A FEW MORE. I GIVE IT A MINUTE HAVING THE TRUCK RUNNING TO RESET THESE THINGS THEIR SELVES AND MOST DO EXCEPT A FEW. THE CHECK ENGINE LIGHT WAS STILL ON ALONG WITH THE BIGGEST PROBLEM WHICH IS THE SERVICE TRANSMISSION WARNING THAT HAS THE TRUCK STUCK IN GEAR; IT WON'T SHIFT OUT OF PARK. I TRIED DISCONNECTING THE BATTERY TERMINALS FOR ABOUT 20 MINUTES SEEING IF THE SOFT

WHEN I AM DRIVING ON THE ROAD THE VEHICLE TURNS OFF AND DOES NOT TURN ON AND SEND AN ELECTRIC POWER STERING ALERT THIS HAPPENS SINCE I PURCHASED THE VEHICLE USED AT A JEEP CERTIFIED DEALER IN FLORIDA AND I HAVE DRIVEN IT SEVERAL TIMES AND THEY TELL ME THAT IT HAS NO PROBLEMS

HARD CLUNK SHIFTING IN FIRST 3 GEARS. IT SHOULD BE A SMOOTH TRANSITION BUT IT THUMPS HARD AND LURCHES FORWARD WHEN GOING FROM 1ST TO 2ND ESPECIALLY. IT'S A SCARY ISSUE THAT UPON READING I SEE IT IS A PROBLEM WITH MY MAKE AND MODEL JEEP.

INFAMOUS 9-SPEED TRANSMISSION HAS NOT WORKED CORRECTLY SINCE THE 1ST DAY I BOUGHT IT NEW! TOOK IT IN TO JEEP SERVICE 9 TIMES FOR THIS ISSUE! JEEP SERVICE MANAGER SAYS, "IT'S WORKING AS IT SHOULD." OH, IT IS SUPPOSED TO WORK SCREWED UP?! HARD SHIFTING, LURCHING, POWER LOSS, INCONSISTENT SHIFTING PATTERNS, ETC. PROBLEMS EXIST UPON TAKE-OFF, SPEEDING UP, SLOWING DOWN & COMING TO A COMPLETE STOP. IT IS NOT RIGHT!

MY VEHICLE'S PASSENGER TIRE WAS IMPROPERLY MOUNTED BY THE MANUFACTURER. IT HAS LED TO THE ENGINE MOUNTS BECOMING WORN, CAUSING THE CAMSHAFT TO BE WORN AT ONLY 71,213 MILES, AND THE DRIVE SHAFT BECOMING BROKEN. THIS HAS BEEN DOCUMENTED BY A REPAIR SHOP AND A JEEP DEALERSHIP SERVICE CENTER SAYS THAT THIS IS THE THIRD TIME THAT THEY HAVE SEEN THIS ISSUE AND ATTRIBUTE IT TO THE TIRE BEING IMPROPERLY MOUNTED BY THE FACTORY. THIS IS ALSO A KNOWN ISSUE DOCUMENTED IN VIDEOS AND ONLINE FORUMS. THIS IS A MATTER OF SAFETY AND COULD CAUSE CATASTROPHIC FAILURE WHILE DRIVING. THE MANUFACTURER HAS BEEN NOTIFIED BUT HAVE NOT YET ACKNOWLEDGED THAT THIS WARRANTS A RECALL, WHICH IT SHOULD.

TRANSMISSION BEGAN TO SLIP AND FAILED UNDER NORMAL DRIVING CONDITIONS BOTH ON HIGHWAY AND STREETS WITHIN FIRST YEAR OF CAR PURCHASE FROM DEALERSHIP. THE DEALERSHIP REPLACED THE TRANSMISSION AND WITHIN FIVE YEARS, THE TRANSMISSION IS SLIPPING AGAIN WHILE DRIVING UNDER NORMAL CONDITIONS BOTH ON HIGHWAY AND STREETS.
