2015 JEEP RENEGADE Complaints

WHEN DRIVING THE VEHICLE IT SHIFTS EXTREMELY HARD BETWEEN GEARS. IT WILL STALL THEN LURCH FORWARDS WHEN HITTING THE GAS PEDAL. IT VIBRATES VERY HARD WHILE IDLING (LIKE AT A STOP LIGHT) ABOUT 50% OF THE TIME. IT HAS BEEN SERVICED AT MY LOCAL JEEP DEALERSHIP WHERE THE PUSHED A SOFTWARE UPDATE. THIS HELPED, BUT DID NOT SOLVE THE ISSUES FOR A FEW WEEKS (AT MOST). IT IS NOW SCHEDULED TO BE DROPPED OFF AGAIN.

DOORS WILL NOT LOCK / UNLOCK WITH KEY FAB. LIGHTS FLASH AS IF LOCKING BUT DONT LOCK. JEEP REMAINS OPEN AND VULNERABLE TO THEFT WITHOUT YOU KNOWING.

RETURNING HOME ON HIGHWAY CHRISTMAS DAY. CAR WOULD NOT ACCELERATE. WAS STUCK IN A LOW GEAR. HAD TO BE TOWED HOME.

I AM CONTACTING YOU DUE TO DUE TO BAXTER SERVICE REP PAUL AT BAXTER CHRYSLER DODGE JEEP RAM DEALER REFUSAL TO REPAIR RECALLS FOR MY JEEP RENEGADE. THE RECALLS THAT GENERATE FROM MY INSURANCE COMPANY ALLSTATE ARE INDEED RECALLS MY VEHICLE NEEDS BASED ON PERFORMANCE ISSUES. HE INFORMED ME THAT THEY'RE NOT RECALLS, AND WHEN I SAID ALLSTATE MADE THEM UP, HE SAID 'YEAH'! THE INFORMATION FOR THE 4 RECALLS ARE FROM DATA.GOV. THE SERVICE DEPARTMENT AT BAXTER SAYS THEY ARE ONLY GOING TO REPAIR THE RECALL (FOR ENGINE COOLING FAN) THAT CHRYSLER WEBSITE SHOWS! PLEASE ADVISE &/OR ASSIST TO RESOLVE THIS ISSUE! I HAVE REPORTED TO THE ASSISTANT SERVICE MGR JUSTIN SUNQUIST AND BBB AS WELL. THANKS

THIS HAS BEEN AN ON AND OFF GOING ISSUE. WHEN THE PROBLEM OCCURS, THE CHECK ENGINE LIGHT COMES ON AND THEN THE CAR WOULD STALL IN THE MIDDLE OF DRIVING ON THE HIGHWAY OR STREETS. A WARNING APPEARS ON MY DASHBOARD SAYING TO PUT MY CAR IN PARK IN ORDER TO SWITCH GEARS. SOMETIMES IT PUTS ME IN NEUTRAL WHEN I'M AT A STREET LIGHT. I'D HAVE TO TURN MY CAR OFF AND RESTART IT IN ORDER TO DRIVE AGAIN BUT IT KEEPS HAPPENING. SEVERAL TIMES I TRY TO TAKE MY CAR INTO THE DEALERSHIP AND THE CHECK ENGINE LIGHT WOULD TURN OFF AND IT WOULD CONTINUE TO WORK LIKE NORMAL UNTIL THE NEXT EPISODE. IT'S BEEN GETTING PROGRESSIVELY WORSE AND WORSE NOW.

I HAD THE SERVICE ENGINE LIGHT COME ON IN MY VEHICLE. I TOOK IT TO GET IT LOOKED AT AND THEY RAN A DIAGNOSTICS TEST ON IT. THE THERMOSTAT HAD TO BE REPLACED. NOT EVEN 9 MONTHS LATER, THE SAME THING IS HAPPENING AGAIN. THE SERVICE LIGHT CAME ON, IT WAS CHECKED, AND NOW MY THERMOSTAT NEEDS TO BE REPLACED AGAIN. I AM NOT HAPPY ABOUT THIS. I WAS DRIVING WHEN THIS HAPPENED.

THE CAR STALLS OUT WHILE DRIVING ON SEVERAL OCCASIONS I HAVE HAD TO COMPLETELY STOP TURN MY CAR OFF PUMP THE GAS AND THEN RESTART. THE FIRST THREE MONTH OF THE PURCHASE I HAD TO HAVE IT TOWED BACK TO THE DEALERSHIP BECAUSE THE CAR STOPPED COMPLETELY AND WOULDN'T NOT START AGAIN NO MATTER HOW LONG IT WAS BEING JUMPED OFF . I CALLED THE TOW TRUCK WHO USED SPECIAL JUMP BOX AND HE STILL COULDN'T GET IT TO CRANK. NOW HERE IT IS A LESS THAN A YEAR LATER AND THE SAME ISSUE AGAIN.

MY OIL CHANGE IS NOT EVEN DUE AND I GET ALARM OF LOW OIL, WHEN THIS HAPPENED THE VEHICLE STOPS, AND DON'T START, I WAS TURNING AND IT JUST STOPPED I CULD HAD BEEN HIT BY ANY CAR COMING

SHIFTER/GEAR ON 2015 JEEP RENEGADE IS STUCK IN PARK. CANNOT TAKE CAR OUT OF PARK. CAR STARTS BUT CANNOT MOVE IT DUE TO GEAR SHIRT BEING STUCK IN PARK. THIS MAY BE A MANUFACTORS DEFECT. CHECK VIN BUT NO RECALLS CAME UP. OUR MECHANIC MENTIONED THERE MAY BE A RECALL ON THIS CAR DUE TO FAULTY SHIFTER.

THE VEHICLE WILL NOT START AT RANDOM TIMES. IT FINALLY DOES START AGAIN AND THEN THROWS COMPUTER ERRORS. IT HAS ALSO SHUT DOWN NUMEROUS TIMES WHILE I WAS DRIVING DOWN THE ROAD. SOME OF THESE INSTANCES WERE WHILE I WAS DRIVING THE VEHICLE AND OTHERS WERE AFTER THE VEHICLE WAS SHUT OFF FOR A SHORT AMOUNT OF TIME.
