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.

This vehicle is constantly burning through oil between oil changes. It has stopped several times while driving only to find out it has no oil. It has been on the W80 recall list for 2 years and the dealerships in my area just say the parts are on allocation. I literally have to drive with oil in the car to refill it on the side of the road. I just got another recall notification from Jeep for U90 and they don't have parts to fix that either. I can't get it fixed. I can't sell it and I can't afford to keep it on the road. The low oil warning light does NOT come on.

My customer satisfaction number is W20. I have been waiting since December 2022 to get the catalytic converter replaced. I was told there were 2 people ahead of me. Everytime I called I was told they were still trying to reach the people. They did update the software but now my Jeep is sluggish. I have to force the gas pedal to force the accelerator to the floor to pick up speed. So my gas mileage is very bad. I hope the engine does not go waiting so long to get a defective part replaced. I am in Arkansas now and will be until my Mom gets out of the hospital. I want to get my Jeep fixed now. I am close to Batesville and Jonesboro Arkansas. Please tell me where I can take my Jeep to get it repaired or do I take the recall card to any Jeep dealer. I feel I have waited long enough.

My 2016 Jeep Renegade Sport 4WD 2.4L (~87K mileage) never has given me any major issues or shown symptoms of any need for service attention recently. It has been upkept with regular oil changes and servicing as needed. I recently went on vacation and had the vehicle parked for a week and upon returning and trying to turn the vehicle on it would not start. It was not the battery as that was recently changed and the vehicle tried very hard to crank, but nothing was successful on its own we even tried charging the battery and jumping it with our other car. I had AAA finally come and they were able to start it, but as soon as you put it in "drive" to move it the engine would flood and the car would shut off. As the car would run, white smoke would flow out of the tailpipe horribly as well. I had it towed to the AAA car center since they are around the corner and they are stating the head gasket is blown and the engine will need replacement. There was no indication from the vehicle that it needed a oil change or that oil was low. There was no symptoms I encountered prior to all of this happening. It was advised NOT to have the engine machined to fix the gasket due to the mileage and age of the vehicle. I am in shock that this came out of nowhere. Again, I drove the car a few days before leaving it parked in a safe location and it's mainly driven by me and there was absolutely no indication something was even remotely wrong.

Same as many other people, Traction Control. When making slow left hand turns Traction Control warning light comes on and complete power loss with engine still running. I have discovered if I lift my foot off gas pedal and quickly return it I regain power. This is dangerous as many other folks have reported. The fear of a side impact is always on my mind. Not confirmed by dealer as it does happen on every turn. Finally yes available for inspection any time.

Stopped at a red light stepped on gas to go on the green and car had shut off. Two or three tries later the car restarted. Scary with traffic coming from behind. This is the third time this has happened.

- Santa Monica , CA, USA

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.

The vehicle just stalls out with no warning. Just shuts off. After a few attempts the car restarted however stalled out again.

This has occurred ever since I-??ve bought my car, and not every time. When car is at a slight incline and at a stop, it will not accelerate. Gas cap broke off for no reason. Dealership rep said that-??s happened to someone else too. Chip for airbag sensors are not available.

In April of 2020 and at 41,800 miles, my vehicle was experiencing very significant vibration and noise from my engine and had become unbearable. I learned, from taking the vehicle to the Dealer, that the Passenger Side Engine Mount was defective - leading to instability under the hood. The Dealer, 'off record' indicated there was a known defect and that they were replacing a fair amount of the mounts for those customers who recognized that there may be a problem. The Dealer wanted $600+ to replace the Engine Mount! I believed an item like that (part of the drivetrain system) should be replaced for free by the manufacturer. However, I purchased the Engine Mount (Part #6841 8168 AA -001) and Bolts and replaced the Mount myself. In addition, I contacted FCA and they reimbursed me for the $241.68 expense. Most unfortunately, again, at 55,231miles the replacement (FCA Part) Engine Mount FAILED - creating incredible vibration and noise!! Again, I purchased another replacement FCA Engine Mount, Bolts and installed the replacement Engine Mount myself. I have tried to reach-out to FCA utilizing the e-mail address that they communicated with me back in 04/2020, although FCA is not responding. This issue, that of a potentially factory defective Primary Engine Mount design, can be a very significant issue as it supports and/or impacts the Drive Train System. The question must be asked, what could happen with the vehicle for those drivers who do not recognize an ever (but slowly) increasing noise and vibration until it is too late?? I would respectfully request NHTSA consider a recall mandate for this item for which FCA should be required to re-design the part and offer free replacements.

while driving, car comes to a complete stop and stalls when accelerating. dangerous during oncoming traffic whether it's the pedestrian or the cars surrounding me. car won't move instantly upon pressing on gas pedal-- it stalls for a bit before moving.

- Lowell, MA, USA

Jeep lost acceleration and died in the middle of the road. Fortunately I had just gotten off the freeway or we could have been seriously injured. No warning or check engine lights illuminated, it just completely lost the acceleration and died in the road.

The radiator fan will stop working or work intermittently. If it's not running when the temp gets up you have to manually Spin The Fan then it will engage. It is prone to overheating while idling or moving slow. I have replaced the fan on a active recall for this model three times already. The fans usually last from anywhere from 4 months to a 8 months.

- Fresno, CA, USA

there were no warnings on the vehicle to indicate a problem occurring. coming from a complete stop there is a delay in accelerating to speed - feels like a stall and the pedal is not receiving any gas... but the tank is full. dealership never found any issues nor were able to reproduce the same problem. this problem happens multiple times a year. this is dangerous for driving as i'm unable to get to full speed in traffic.

UNKNOWN I was recently sold a vehicle that I feel should be under the "safe car" issues. The engine cooling fan. If an engine cooling fan is not working right, this can cause the engine to overheat and the potential exists for a vehicle fire. How is that not a safety issue? Two Manufacturer recalls on the Jeep Renegade 2016: #V54 2015-2017 VM BU FB ENGINE COOLING FAN #W20 2013-2019 Mutli Vehicle 2.4 Reprogram PCM PH1 I bought a car not realizing the signficance of these recalls which were not explained to me at the time of purchase. Neither recall repairs were done by the previous owner. I feel the engine cooling fan is a serious safety issue yet it is not listed on your website. This means other unsuspecting buyers can purchase cars without salespeople being required to disclose detailed recall information. Nor whether or not this recall was taken care of by the previous owner. In my case, it was not.

Had this car since 2016, only 39,289miles, no problems whatsoever, and then I did this recall thing the 12th of July 2021, and today the 14th of July 2021 I have an engine light on, I have this horrible noise when I turn it on, I am so pissed and mad!!!really mad!!!Techs should not touch anything else than whats is called for to be fixed!!!i feel that when we take the cars they mess things out so we, the customers have to end up putting money since is free, they need customers to go back and spend on something that it didn-??t needed it from the beginning!!!like I said 6yrs and not a problem, even have a multi point inspection sheet that it shows everything was great!!!i am scare to take back, because now I-??m going to end up paying for their mistakes/fault/unprofessional work.I am so disappointed, upset, mad.I was planning to buy there again, but now I-??m re thinking bout it!it won-??t get fixed I know I will end up paying, but I want to make a complaint so that way at least it will pile with other people who end up having the same problems!why do Mechanics do that, or Techs do it!if is not broken, don-??t fix it please.They should take an integrity test and not take advantage of the situation.
