2017 JEEP RENEGADE Complaints

TRANSMISSION KEEPS SKIPPING EVERY 30MPH INCREMENT. NOW MY CAR OUT OF NOWHERE SHUTS OFF. IT'S HAPPENED NOW 3 TIMES IN A MATTER OF A WEEK. I WILL BE DRIVING AND IT DOESN'T LET ME ACCELERATE AND IT ASKS ME TO PUT THE CAR IN PARK AND TURN IT BACK ON. WHEN I TRY TURNING IT BACK ON IT TAKES 3 TIMES BEFORE I CAN START IT BACK UP.

DRIVING DOWN I-95 AT A SPEED OF 65 CAR BEGINS TO SLOW DOWN EVEN WHILE IM ACCELERATING, WAS ABLE TO PULL CAR OVER AND ONCE I GOT ON SHOULDER I CUT CAR OFF TO SEE IF THAT WOULD HELP, CAR WOULD NOT TURN BACK ON AT ALL. HAD TO GET TOWED TO THE DEALER WHICH THEY SAID IT WAS THE FUEL PUMP, THEY FIXED THE PROBLEM ONLY FOR THE SAME THING TO BE HAPPENING A MONTH LATER, THE CAR KEEP DOING HARD JERKS AND NOT WANTING TO ACCELERATE. I CAN BE IN DRIVE AND THE CAR WILL TELL ME IM IN PARK OR JUST SHUT OFF ON ME

ANOTHER DRIVER RAN THE RED LIGHT AND THE HIT THE OTHER DRIVERS CAR BUT AIR BAGS DID NOT DEPLOY. *DT*JB

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2017 JEEP RENEGADE. THE CONTACT STATED THAT THE CHECK ENGINE INDICATOR ILLUMINATED. THE CONTACT STATED THAT THE VEHICLE VIBRATED WHEN IN USE AND THE ENGINE SEEMED TO HAVE REDUCED POWER. THE CONTACT CALLED ROSEVILLE AUTOMALL (LOCATED AT 100 AUTOMALL DR, ROSEVILLE, CA 95661, 916-782-5999) AND WAS INFORMED THAT THE CYLINDER MISFIRED AND CAUSED THE FUEL PRESSURE TO REGULATE INCORRECTLY. THE VEHICLE HAD NOT BEEN REPAIRED. THE MANUFACTURER WAS MADE AWARE OF THE FAILURE AND STATED THAT NHTSA CAMPAIGN NUMBER: 18V131000 (ENGINE AND ENGINE COOLING) WAS ISSUED BASED ON A BILL DATE. THE CONTACT'S BILL DATE NEEDED TO BE CORRECTED AND A REPRESENTATIVE FROM THE MANUFACTURER WOULD BE IN CONTACT. THE MANUFACTURER OPENED A CASE REGARDING THE MATTER. THE APPROXIMATE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS 65,000.

MY CHECK ENGINE LIGHT CAME ON AND MY ENGINE STARTED OVERHEATING. THE RADIATOR COOLING FAN JUST STOPPED WORKING FOR NO REASON. IT ALSO BLEW OUT THE RELAY AMD FUSE. I WAS TOLD THAT THIS IS OUT OF WARRANTY AND A NEW FAN ASSEMBLY NEEDS TO BE INSTALLED. THE JEEP IS ONLY TWO YEARS OLD AND HAS 39,232 MILES ON IT. AFTER RESEARCHING THIS IS I FIND OUT THAT AT LEAST 66 OTHER 2017 JEEP REMEGADE OWNERS HAVE HAD THEIR RADIATOR FANS GO OUT AT 40,000 MILES. THIS ISN'T AN ISOLATED ISSUE AND THE PART HAS TO BE RECALLED. CHRYSTLER AND JEEP ARE UNHELPFUL AND UNWILLING TO ADMIT TO THE PROBLEM.

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2017 JEEP RENEGADE. THE CONTACT STATED THAT THE ENGINE BURNED EXCESSIVE OIL AND THE OIL INDICATOR ILLUMINATED. THE CONTACT ALSO STATED THAT THE VEHICLE STALLED WHILE DRIVING VARIOUS SPEEDS WITHOUT WARNING. THE CONTACT STATED THAT AFTER THE MOST RECENT OIL CHANGE, THE FUEL PRESSURE AND CHECK ENGINE WARNING INDICATORS ILLUMINATED. SHE CHECKED THE ENGINE AND NOTICED THERE WAS LITTLE OIL LEFT IN THE VEHICLE. THE CONTACT DISCOVERED NHTSA CAMPAIGN NUMBER: 18V131000 (ENGINE AND ENGINE COOLING), WHICH SHE ASSOCIATED WITH THE FAILURE. THE CONTACT CALLED LANDMARK DODGE CHRYSLER JEEP RAM (6850 MT ZION BLVD, MORROW, GA 30260, (770) 968-4900) AND WAS INFORMED THAT THE VEHICLE WAS NOT INCLUDED IN A RECALL. THE MANUFACTURER WAS NOT NOTIFIED OF THE FAILURE. THE VEHICLE WAS NOT REPAIRED. THE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS 50,000.

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2017 JEEP RENEGADE. WHILE DRIVING APPROXIMATELY 15 MPH, THE VEHICLE STALLED AND, AFTER REPEATED ATTEMPTS TO RESTART THE VEHICLE, IT FINALLY STARTED AND THE CHECK ENGINE WARNING INDICATOR ILLUMINATED. ALSO, THE "SERVICE OIL PUMP" MESSAGE DISPLAYED IN THE MESSAGE CENTER. THE VEHICLE WAS TOWED TO JACKSONS OF ENID CHRYSLER JEEP (4405 W OWEN K GAMONT RD, ENID, OK 73703) WHERE IT REMAINED SINCE DECEMBER 9, 2019. THE DEALER WAS UNABLE TO DETERMINE THE CAUSE OF THE FAILURE. THE CONTACT ALSO MENTIONED THAT THE VEHICLE WAS TAKEN TO JACKSONS OF ENID CHRYSLER JEEP (4405 W OWEN K GAMONT RD, ENID, OK 73703) THREE OTHER TIMES FOR TRANSMISSION FAILURE. THE MANUFACTURER WAS NOT NOTIFIED OF THE FAILURE. THE VEHICLE WAS NOT REPAIRED. THE APPROXIMATE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS 45,000.

WHILE DRIVING DOWN THE ROAD JEEP FLASHES ALL LIGHTS ON DASHBOARD AND JUST SHUTS DOWN. DOESN'T MATTER WHERE YOU ARE OR HOW FAST YOU ARE GOING, JUST POWERS DOWN AND YOU HAVE TO FIGURE OUT HOW TO ROLL OFF THE ROAD OUT OF TRAFFIC. HAD IT TO THE DEALERSHIP SEVERAL TIMES FOR THE SAME THING, KEEP GETTING TOLD THIS IS "NORMAL" AND I SHOULD CHANGE MY SYNTHETIC OIL AT 4,000 MILES AND THIS SHOULDN'T HAPPEN

EVER SINCE THE BEGINNING OF NOVEMBER 2019, MY RENEGADE HAS BEEN STALLING WHEN I AM IN THE MIDDLE OF DRIVING. IT STARTED OUT TO BE A COUPLE OF TIMES BUT IT NOW DOES IT EVERY TIME I TURN IT ON AND DRIVE. IT HAS STALLED ON ME WHEN I HAVE BEEN IN THE MIDDLE OF BUSY ROADS AND HAS ALMOST CAUSED ACCIDENTS. I NOTICE THAT IT WILL STALL IF I AM TURNING A CORNER OR IF I HAVE JUST STARTED IT UP AND DRIVING OFF WITHIN THE FIRST FEW MINUTES. I KNOW THERE ARE A LOT OF COMPLAINTS BY OTHER 2017 RENEGADE OWNERS BUT I HAVE THE DESERTHAWK EDITION AND I HAVEN'T SEEN ANYTHING FOR MY MODEL. I TAKE VERY GOOD CARE OF IT AND IT IS ONLY A COUPLE OF YEARS OLD. THE STALLING PROBLEM THAT I AM HAVING SEEMS TO ONLY BE GETTING WORSE.

VEHICLE HAS STALLED TWICE NOW. ONCE ON A MOUNTAIN ROAD AROUND A DANGER CURB AND ALSO ON A HIGHWAY. LUCKILY, BOTH TIMES WAS ABLE TO PULL TO SIDE OF THE ROAD. IT ALWAYS STARTS BACK UP BUT EXTREMELY TERRIFIED TO DRIVE IT. BROUGHT TO JEEP DEALERSHIP AND THEY CAN NOT FIND A PROBLEM. ALSO, OIL LIGHT COMES ON REGULARLY NOW WITH LOW OIL. BURNING A LOT OF FUEL. I KNOW FOR A FACT I AM NOT THE ONLY ONE EXPERIENCING THIS ISSUES. THEY ARE ALL OVER THE INTERNET. MY WIFE HAS A RENEGADE AS WELL AND HER'S STALLED OUT ONCE. I FEEL LIKE JEEP IS NOT TAKING THIS SERIOUSLY. SOMEONE WILL GET KILLED IF THIS KEEPS HAPPENING.
