This data is from the NHTSA — the US gov't agency tasked with vehicle safety. Complaints are spread across multiple & redundant categories, & are not organized by problem.
So how do you find out what problems are occurring? For this NHTSA complaint data, the only way is to read through the comments below. Any duplicates or errors? It's not us.
Vehicle will stall out when driving, going less than 40 miles per hour. System does not shut down. Does not seem to be a battery or electrical issue. Had this happen 3 times in a month. Pulled over into park & had to restart the car. Low oil pressure light came on. Took in for a routine oil change. Mechanic referred me to dealership as they could only determine a low oil consumption/ pressure. Terrible knocking sound in front as well. Very concerned as other Jeep have been recalled for similar issues, but my 2017 Renegade latitude is not under the recall. Huge safety concern.
My car stalled. I had to take it to jiff lube to have it topped with oil because the oil change was not due until 2000 more miles and the oil was very very low.
Jeep has 35000 miles on it and while driving down city streets 4 times the vehicle has just stalled. One time it stalled starting from a stop sign. One time it stalled turning off the highway.
2017 Jeep Renegade engine dies while driving, often after making turns, and it takes a few minutes to start back up. This has happened on both residential streets at slower speeds, as well as on the highway and is extremely dangerous. Service department at Jeep dealership says it's normal and a "feature" of the vehicle to turn off the engine if oil levels get too low. We regularly change the oil every 3,000 - 4,000 miles, and there have been no oil leaks detected.

I have tried to get in contact with someone to get my fuel pump fixed. I finally did today. But can't get in until nexta Friday. My car has stopped working completely while driving. I have had to wreck into mailboxes stop in the middle of the road, and almost be hit because my car stops working. I can't wait any longer. My car is a danger
The car seems to want to stall when driving along. Had to press on the gas and go above the speed limit so as not to stall. If I put it in gear and press on the gas I have to keep pumping the gas peddle for the engine to get the gas. Also if oil is low, the car just shuts off has happened to me 3 times, the sensor (dummy light) does not warn you that your oil is low. I do not drive my car far as I am afraid it will stall in the middle of the highway as I go to work.
After refueling the engine stalled when I drove onto the highway. After restarting, the engine shut down. A light came in "vehicle must be in park or start". I put on 4 way flashers. After several stalls, my Jeep restarted. This is the second time this has happened.
My vehicle was in motion on a 2 lane city road going up a mountain in tucson. Upon reaching the altitude of about 4000 feet, my vehicle started to stall out. Everything locked up, brakes, steering wheel, gas, etc. As the vehicle was stalling, I was able to pull off the road. At this point, my vehicle would not start. After about 20 minutes of waiting, I was able to restart it. We continued our ascent up the mountain, but it happened again about 3 minutes later. At this point, we cancelled our plans and went back down. There were no issues going down the mountain or afterwards. About a month later, we tried it again, and the same thing happened, but this time starting at around 3500 ft.
Vehicle was in motion and all of a sudden loss of power, vehicle will not accelerate until you get off accelerator and then it will accelerate when you depress the pedal. Has happened multiple times.
I got gas at a local gas station and as soon as I pulled out started to notice hesitation and jerking from the vehicle. Pressing the gas I noticed it wasn't shifting gears as good and engine light flashed but didn't stay on. After 2 days the problem did not end and finally engine light was consistently on. I could notice the vehicle wasn't driving as good in cruise control and would constantly jerk and vibrate. While the vehicle was not in motion a consistent jerk was present. I drive to work on the interstate and going up hills I began to notice a lag in the vehicle.
The Jeep was staionary. The fuel pump wouldn't come out of the car, leading to the car leaking gas everywhere and then wouldn't start. Took the car back to Jeep dealership, they replaced the fuel fuel tank filler. A week later the Jeep is stationary and then when I turned on the car it wouldn't start and had a flashing lightning symbol and then gas started leaking everywhere from the bottom of the Jeep. I bought this car brand new and only have had it for two years. I feel that I might have a lemon.
Losing oil not getting 25,00 miles between oil changes car stalls and turns off until I get oil changed. Also dashboard alerts for lights out or service warnings but the lights are not out.
Car stopped and totally shut off in the middle of an intersection. Luckily a man stopped and pushed my car. I had to shut it off and restart it. This would have been potentially fatal in a busy intersection.
Vehicle alerts of low oil pressure when completing a tight turn or U-turn. After a few occurances of this, the engine turned of while driving on city streets. I pulled over, checked oil level and it was extremely low. Changed the oil and a month later the alert reoccurred. Checked oil and it was low. Added oil to keep from repeat stalling. This seems to be very similar to the recall of the crack oil pump housing, NHTSA number 18V131000.
While driving car did not give any signs it would stop, steering wheel was locked and so was brakes and gas pedal, car kept saying to put in park and oil pressure low, car came to a complete stop while turning in intersection it did not turn off it just wouldn't move.
Recently, as I was driving, vehicle would stall whenever I would hit my brakes and ask me to shift into park (P), causing me to have to restart my car. Engine would take quite a few seconds to fire/restart before I was able to drive it again. It would also vibrate quite badly and be unable to go any higher than 40mph or 1500rpm until I restarted my car. It would not allow me to accelerate at all until I restarted. This happens every time I drive the car and has been happening for about a week.
