I'm getting multiple messages displayed saying lights are out when they are not, have had many instances where the language is changed to something else. And the cooling fan stops working intermittently causing over heating and most recent melted wiring harness plugs to and from fan.

Check engine light on. ECM (engine control computer) malfunction. Dealer first denied any problems with vehicle even with check engine light on. So I took to it to independent service center, which confirm problem. By providing the service center report, the dealer then confirm problem. Problems/symptoms occur 2 days after financing vehicle.

Was sitting in a drive through and car started smoking. It stopped after I shut everything down. Then another time it overheated after driving for seven minutes had to stop. Air conditioning doesn-??t work. Engine light on. Just bought from dealer with 20000 miles like a lemon. So not right.

I started up my Renegade as usual and when I got to the stop sign at the end of my street, I had a message on the screen telling me to press the break and push the start button. I never turned my car off. No check engine lights before or after this incident.

Since I drive the Jeep off the lot 1/20/2017 with 9 miles on the vehicle I got home and saw that the passenger side daylight running light was not functioning. I called the sales rep and he informed me to bring in the vehicle to find out what was wrong. During the next six years of ownership, I have consistently had the same issue with the running light bulb being burnt out and the two messages of daylight running light out and parking light out. On 9/22/20 with 19,437 miles on the vehicle I paid $34.69 to fix broken wires and have two new bulbs installed. Then on 6/30/22 with 27,236 I paid $33.92 to replace the passenger daytime running light and parking light. Then on 8/10/22 with 27,858 miles on the vehicle I paid $319.82 to have the passenger side daytime running light and parking light bulb and the tech also replaced the driver's side running light socket and bulb because driver's side running light because it was making a poor connection. I addition the vehicle was at the dealership for four days running an electrical diagnostic. I picked up the car and no messages existed. Ten days later I called the dealership and told my service rep that the two messages of the daylight running light and the parking. On 9/14/22 with 28,510 miles on vehicle I went in to see the service manager and the service tec to ask how they would resolve this ongoing light issue and was told that they would need to complete more diagnostic and that I was looking at four hours of diagnostics at a cost to me of $600. Since I was at the dealership, I had an oil change and was given a failure on the light evaluation because the passenger side daylight running light and parking light were out. I got home and started researching the 2016 Jeep Renegade and came across dozens of complaints regarding the same issue I was having of the daylight running light and parking light out. I replaced the factory bulb with a led bulb and after that change I am only getting one message of parking light out

After work I got in my renegade Trailhawk and turned it on as usual to go home. Upon starting up the vehicle, warning lights came on telling me the headlights, tail lights, blinkers, daytime lights, tag lights, parking lights and back up lights were not working or out. I got out and inspected them only to see they were in fact all still functioning as should be. I got someone from the dealership to look at the issue and was told it would be alright, but definitely get the service department to look at it in the morning. I am having it inspected today by the service department and hopefully the issue will be resolved. As an update on this particular issue, I took the Renegade to the Service department the next morning and after just a few minutes I was informed this would be remedied within less than 15 -20 minutes. Apparently there was a new update to the system that was installed by the awesomely knowledgeable crew at Marshall CDJR and I haven-??t had any of the same issues since.

Electrical issues continue with blinkers, brake lights, tail lights. Replaced battery, replaced cooling fan. Stationary, and when in motion.

When driving car, beeping occurs (as if someone is riding and not buckled) and parking brake and air bag lights flash on dash board. Saw online that many people have this issue w their Renegade as well. Dealership wants to charge $175 just to check it out. Please help!

When driving, my check engine light comes on. Then the service 4 wheel drive light flashes and I'm unable to use my 4 wheel drive. My car shuts off at stop signs, on its own and the air bag lights come on. After reading about this, it sounds like it's a very common issue with the Renegades. This is super disappointing and unsafe.

The car engine shuts down unexpectedly while driving. Bought the car from autonation 3 months ago. I noticed the oil low pressure just started to come with the shutdown. This is very dangerous if driving on the highway. This model needs to be recalled because I found hundreds of similar situations online.

I have a Jeep Renegade 2016 sport I have been having this weird issue with it where it has a notice that says service 4 wheel drive then completely shut the car off while driving I have looked up this issue and it seems other Jeep buyers with the same model have these issues too I don't think it's safe to have these cars out for buying when the clearly have a defect that need fixing

- Chicago, IL, USA

Vehicle shuts off while driving as well as taking turns. Just shuts off with no warning. After it shuts off the lightning bolt in parentheses (electronic throttle control system) comes on, then goes away. Car shows as still running, but won't move. Sometimes the low oil gauge comes on, but the vehicle is up to date with oil changes. Very unsafe for vehicle to just "stop moving" or "shut off" in the middle of driving, or in the middle of an intersection. This has happened on and off for about 4 months, but now it is daily.

Due to unknow reasons the driver side power seat positional controls in my Jeep Renegade have become uncontrollable and unpredictable in their functionality. The driver power seat malfunction lingers despite several time-consuming vehicle examinations by a fca local authorized Jeep dealership service agent. This issue presents a safety and health hazard to me while operating the vehicle.

While driving the car loses power and the message "shift to park" appears then the car stalls. The car was traveling less than 25mph.the car may or may not start afterwards. The battery was replaced but the same problem occurs. This has occurred multiple times and has stranded me. It doesn't matter the outside weather conditions.

Driving on highway at 70 mph up a minor incline, the vehicle started hesitating/chugging and then the accelerator pedal stopped responding. Vehicle stalled and coasted to stop where the idle was rough and then died. Initially, would restart, but then stall out. For the next 3 hours (while waiting for a tow), the electrical system was flaking out - intermittently flashing any error in its wheelhouse. Restarted next day and idle very rough/misfiring, engine light blinking and decent cloud of black smoke generated. Initial report from shop is that the engine oil is sludge (changed 5K miles ago), battery is completely dead (was already replaced at 15K miles) and a spark plug end is bent and in horrific shape. Vehicle has 25K miles and has been in service for 4.2 years.

When driving the car and entering the on ramp to the freeway the car lost the ability to accelerate. It appeared the gas peddle was inactive and the car was in neutral. It notified me with a light "electronic stability control" then the car suddenly went back into gear. I was concerned but was lead to believe this was part of the design. Suddenly without warning and for no reason at 25K miles the battery suddenly died. All lights came on in the car. It had no power and would not turn on. The dealership said "the battery just failed". in Aug I was shocked to turn on the car and have a message that says "change oil" well before an oil change is due. This was the first time I had seen this light because I am always on time with car maintenance. The $84.77 seems to have been spent on an unnecessary oil change, if this continues I will not be able to afford the constant oil changes. Mostly recently and most concerning on Tuesday the 29th of Sep. I was leaving for a medical appointment and when I turned on the car it said every light in the car was out. My neighbor came over and verified that I was missing several lights. The car was inoperable and I was stranded. I was able to get a ride, but when I got home a few hours later, I turned on the car and all the lights worked perfectly fine. With the above mentioned I am concerned for my safety, for the safety of others I share the road with, and the reliability of my 2016 Jeep Renegade
