2015 JEEP RENEGADE Complaints

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.
