Rear brake and back up light assembly ground wire shorted and burned out. This caused all of the lights in the assembly to go out and sent multiple warnings to the dash board. This short came close to melting wires and the plastic assembly itself.

Both fog lights have had to be replace due to the inside reflectors getting so hot, the bulbs are melting them with the potential to cause a fire. This vehicle is a 2015 bought brand new and has 52000 miles on it.

The drivers side fog light reflector was melted and charred like it was nearly on fire. There was no silver coating on the plastic reflector and it looks like the plastic was absorbing all the heat of the bulb.

My fog lamps housing melted. The entire inside of both housing are melted due to heat from the bulbs. My lenses are black. It cost me $225 for new parts and that does not include labor. How long before these new ones melt again? hopefully it does not cause more damage and short my car out or catch on fire.

The front left daytime running light bulb tits were melted down the dealer said I had to replace entire related wire system. (daylight running and turn signal) this melting on the bulb is abnormal. Possible fire hazard.

If you have small children do not load them in this Jeep! when accelerating from a dead stop will struggle to get up to speed and sounded like I was rear ended at a high speed. I got out of the Jeep to see if something fell off. Transmission sounds and feels like its slipping. Not every time but it happens so often it has made me feel unsafe and I do not go out of town or long trips over 45 miles away from home.. every time I take it to the shop and ask whats going on they say its how the Jeep Renegade was made, its normal for it to do all this.

Got into Jeep to go home from work and I look down the screen is telling me my left signal, parking light and brake light is out. The next day it was working fine. A few days after that it did it again will I was driving this time the little light on the bottom right corner of the screen popped on and caught my attention, so I changed all the bulbs and still nothing so I check fuse it's good. Take to shop and find out the connector shorted out and the wires were corroded. This is a safety issue because had I not been paying attention and had my husband double check and make sure it wasn't working I may have never found this problem. The first time it happened was Tuesday September 3rd and the second time was Thursday September 5th

Indicator light for right turn signal out, left turn signal out, daytime running lights out, brake light out and parking lights out cycled while the car was in motion. All lights are working properly. Turned car off and back on again, all lights disappeared. Researched that other Renegades have had this issue, but only 2017 models were recalled.

Daytime/park running light has blown out 3-4 times since purchasing it in 2015. I have taken it to the dealership to have it looked at and all they do is replace the bulb. I am now out of warranty and the bulbs continue to blow out. I only have 75K miles on this truck. Not to mention, I have owned several vehicles throughout my life and I have never had a change a light bulb of any kind on any of my previous vehicles like I do with the Renegade. Seriously thinking about trading this in for a totally different brand of vehicles altogether.

- Richmond, VA, USA

Fan stopped working causing car to overheat and smoke while idle. Cannot drive the car. Also have had a problem with the day time running light blowing out. Had the light fixed three times in a few months and blew a fourth time. Took it to the dealership every single time and it's currently out bc they obviously don't know how to fix it so it's a waste of time.

Approximately one month after purchasing my 2015 Jeep Renegade trailhawk, I began having trouble with the electrical system. The battery has died four times, the key fob(s) work intermittently, the engine has shut off on its own, the clock continuously resets the date/time, and the windows have stopped working once. I have been forced to use Jeep's roadside assistance twice due to dead batteries. This weekend, the heater stopped working and it does not turn on. These continuous problems substantially impairs both the use and value of my car. Additionally, it presents a significant safety concern for my family; winter is upon us and my wife utilizes this vehicle to Transport our two children, whom are each under the age of three years old. The thought of them being stranded with no heater due to continuous electrical issues is unnerving. I initially considered this to be an isolated incident; however, I've asked two additional 2015 Jeep Renegade owners if they have encountered any similar instances - both have returned their Renegade to the dealership for servicing due to electrical issues. The dealership informed them the vehicle simply needed a software update. This is not a satisfactory response!
