2017 JEEP RENEGADE Complaints

NO LOW FUEL WARNING LIGHT. VEHICLE STALLS OUT WITH 4 BARS LEFT I GAS GAUGE. WHILE IN MOTION.

JEEP HAS 35000 MILES ON IT AND WHILE DRIVING DOWN CITY STREETS 4 TIMES THE VEHICLE HAS JUST STALLED. ONE TIME IT STALLED STARTING FROM A STOP SIGN. ONE TIME IT STALLED TURNING OFF THE HIGHWAY.

2017 JEEP RENEGADE ENGINE DIES WHILE DRIVING, OFTEN AFTER MAKING TURNS, AND IT TAKES A FEW MINUTES TO START BACK UP. THIS HAS HAPPENED ON BOTH RESIDENTIAL STREETS AT SLOWER SPEEDS, AS WELL AS ON THE HIGHWAY AND IS EXTREMELY DANGEROUS. SERVICE DEPARTMENT AT JEEP DEALERSHIP SAYS IT'S NORMAL AND A "FEATURE" OF THE VEHICLE TO TURN OFF THE ENGINE IF OIL LEVELS GET TOO LOW. WE REGULARLY CHANGE THE OIL EVERY 3,000 - 4,000 MILES, AND THERE HAVE BEEN NO OIL LEAKS DETECTED.

THE CAR WAS THROWING EMERGENCE BRAKE FAILURE LIGHTS, ESC SYSTEM, SERVICE ELECTRONIC PARING BRAKE, SERVICE ESC SYSTEM, AND CHECK AIR BAGS LIGHTS

MY CAR STALLED AND TURNED OFF WHILE DRIVING. I WAS IN MOTION TURNING FROM ONE ROAD ONTO ANOTHER IN JULY 2020 AND AGAIN 2X ON DEC 23RD, 2020 WITHOUT ANY WARNING. IN JULY THE DEALER TOLD ME IT WAS A "SAFETY FEATURE" FOR THE ENGINE TO TURN OFF IF THE OIL IS LOW. IT HAD BEEN 4,729 MILES SINCE MY LAST OIL CHANGE DONE BY THE JEEP DEALER WITH SYNTHETIC OIL (WHICH IS GOOD FOR 6,000 MILES). WHEN I HAD THE OIL CHECKED AFTER IT STALLED ON DEC 23RD THE OIL WAS 4 QUARTS LOW! THERE IS CURRENTLY A RECALL FOR OTHER 2017 JEEP RENEGADES WITH THE 2.4L ENGINE, BUT MY VIN IS NOT INCLUDED. THERE WAS A CLASS ACTION LAWSUIT FOR MY YEAR MAKE AND MODEL CAR FILED ON JULY 21ST, 2020 FOR THIS SAME EXACT PROBLEM.

MY ELECTRICAL POWER STEERING MODULE IS EXPERIENCING TECHNICAL ISSUES AND MY STEERING WHEEL LOCKED WHILE DRIVING 55 MPH ON THE HIGHWAY.

WHILE IN MOTION THE VEHICLE HAS SHUT OFF IN THE MIDDLE OF THE STREET NUMEROUS TIMES.. ONCE WHILE TURNING THE VEHICLE HAS TURNED OFF.

MY RENEGADE HAS STALLED 5XS IN THE LAST 4 MONTHS WHILE DRIVING DOWN THE ROAD. EACH TIME, I'M DRIVING AT LOW SPEEDS. IT CONSTANTLY SAYS MY OIL IS LOW, BUT THE TECHS KEEP SAYING MY OIL IS FINE. THIS LAST TIME, I CHECKED THE OIL. MY RENEGADE DIDN'T EVEN HAVE OIL ON THE DIP STICK. I SEARCHED MY USUAL PARKING SPOT AND THERE IS NO OIL ON THE GROUND.

WHEN TURNING LEFT FROM A COLD START VEHICLE STALLS AND SHUTS OFF. IT SAYS IT NEEDS TO SHIFT, BUT IT IS ALREADY IN DRIVE. YOU MUST SHUT THE VEHICLE OFF AND ATTEMPT TO START IT SOMETIMES IT TAKES FIVE MINUTES FOR IT TO START. NOW IT SAYS THERE ARE ISSUES WITH THE LIGHTS, LIKE THEY ARE OUT BUT THEY ARE ACTUALLY WORKING. NO WORK HAS BEEN DONE ON IT BEFORE. CURRENTLY AT THE DEALERSHIP. HAVE VIDEO.

CAR BURNS THROUGH OIL VERY QUICKLY. WHILE I WAS DRIVING, THE OIL LIGHT FLASHED FOR HALF A SECOND AND THEN THE CAR JUST COMPLETELY SHUT DOWN. THE OIL HAD RUN OUT COMPLETELY UNDER 2000 MILES FROM LAST OIL CHANGE. THIS HAS HAPPENED TWICE. IF YOU DON'T CONSTANTLY MANUALLY CHECK THE OIL LEVEL, THE CAR CAN JUST SHUT OFF WITHOUT WARNING WHILE YOU ARE DRIVING WHICH IS VERY DANGEROUS. THIS CAR BURNS THROUGH OIL EXTREMELY FAST.
