CarComplaints.com Notes: The 2015 Jeep Renegade has a very large volume of complaints for such a new model, especially compared to other SUVs in the same class.
Most Jeep Renegade complaints are for various problems with interior accessories & electrical systems, as well as squealing brakes, transmission (rough shifting) and engine problems.
The Jeep Renegade is not a safe car! It is not safe for the person driving, the passengers or the people on the road near the Jeep Renegade! I was driving down the road, picking up speed when suddenly the brakes locked up, at the time I was going about 40 mph. There were no cars near or around my, there were no animals in the road...nothing, no reason for the brakes to lock up. The service department can not service the car because the can not duplicate the problem. Now they are telling me I need to drive the car home...no way I am driving that death trap!
