A few weeks after I first bought my new car (June 2018) after starting it, the radio would sometimes not come on or the volume control knob would not work. Then recently several months ago (April 2020) the 12V cigarette lighter in my car stopped working (car in park, just started). Turned car off, and then it would not start again. It seemed like all power was lost to the car. No lights would come on inside either. It just wouldn't do anything at all when trying to start it. The 15 fuse was replaced in the dash box, and it then started fine again. That lasted for a couple months. Then a few weeks ago now (8/8/20) my car wouldn't start in the driveway. Again, no power to it, no lights or anything. The same fuse was blown, so it was replaced again. My car still wouldn't start. I jumped it off with jumper cables, it started fine. I was driving for less than 20 minutes (8/12/20), someone motioned me to pull over because they smelled my car battery. Looked under the hood, and my battery was leaking. I then had to drive my car another 5-10 minutes to get it home. Made it home, and the car wouldn't start again. I had the battery replaced with a brand new one (8/17/20), and my car started fine again. As I mentioned, that was 2 weeks ago. Now today (9/2/20), I started my car, drove for about 5 minutes, then it just quit accelerating and wouldn't go over 20mph. I pulled over, the check engine light came on for the first time, turned the car off, and again it now won't start back up at all. The interior lights do still come on, but when I hit 'lock' on my key fob, the headlights and taillights flash weirdly on and off many times in a row. I bought this car brand new and have only had constant electrical and starting problems since the beginning.

When driving downhill 55 mph at an approximate altitude of 5500ft on hwy 80 West in Wyoming, my vehicle completely lost all power, engine shutdown and dashboard message said shift to park. Very scary and dangerous situation that I was able to control. I proceeded to park the vehicle on the side of the hwy and shifted to park. I waited for about 15 minutes not knowing what to do. I decided to turn the engine on, which it did, shifted to drive, and drove to the nearest hwy exit. I do not know the exact cause of the issue, but it seems, base on other owners report's that the problem is caused by a failure in the engine fuel pump and/or voltage regulator which it makes sense. Please investigate and recall the issue before someone dies.

Engine consumes oil. There is zero reason for a 2018 model vehicle to consume engine oil. Dealership has talked with me about this at every oil change and tried to explain that this engine is designed to consume oil. Bull crap!!! recall this and fix the problem fca. There are thousands of people with the same problem and complaints.

Driving with my child in the vehicle and the car engine cutoff. Luckily I was not in traffic and was able to get the vehicle stopped. Message in dash was something about needing to shift to park. Placed vehicle in park, engine restarted and sputtered for a moment, then continued as normal. Only happened once. Dealership said it was likely due to low oil level (approximately 2500 miles since oil change).

I bought this car new, this car is currently at 33596miles. Recently had noticed some really hard jerky shifting, so hard it feels like someone had bump into the rear of my car. When I start up the car cold, shift from park to reverse I can hear this harsh grinding, whining noise.

While driving my vehicle is shutting off. It has shut off on the highway and in the city. Almost causing crashes. I would literally just be driving and the engine will shut off. I had to get towed today

- Springfield, OH, USA

On the manual transmission, the clutch seems to not reengage completely (as if you were riding the clutch) causing it to get hot and have a lack of power and a nauseating odor. The problem began abruptly and causes a significant loss of power/acceleration that is extremely hazardous on the roadway.

- Arab, AL, USA

2018 Renegade with 6 speed manual transmission 54,000 miles on it. Driving on highway and could not shift, revving high rpms, bad smell of burning clutch. Had to have towed to dealership and catastrophic failure of the clutch. Drove fine on Thursday when I had it at the dealership for a oil change, drive fine Friday to put new tires on it. Did not drive it Saturday, drove it Sunday at 11:30 at night and that's when it happened. I had no warning of any clutch issues previously.

Vehicle shut off twice while in motion with no warning. Changed oil at 12000 miles. At 14,500 miles the vehicle flashed a low oil pressure sign and shut off while moving on a 45mph road. It then struggled to restart. Had the vehicle towed to the dealership where they confirmed there was no oil. I am now doing an oil consumption test per the dealership's instructions and the dealership confirmed on the 3rd test (16000 mileage) after 1500 miles that the vehicle burned a quart of oil so far. We are continuing the tests. The vehicle does not warn of low oil or give warning when it is shutting off. It will completely shut off while in motion, leaving the driver to attempt to coast to a safe area. The dash will then read 'place gear in P and press button to turn on' this has occurred twice - the first time that required the oil change at 12000 in November 4, 2019 and the second at 14,500 on December 31, 2019. In summary, the vehicle burned through 5 quarts of oil in a little over 2000 miles and shut off with no warning, and is beginning the process again while being monitored under the dealership.

I was making a right onto a road and I lost all power to the drive train and had to make a sudden right turn into a subdivision that was to my immediate right. I could still steer; which was how I pulled myself off the road into the subdivision immediately after making the turn onto the road. I checked the oil level when I came to a stop inside the subdivision. It read that the oil level was slightly above the recommended level on the dipstick. I was on my way to have the oil change done. The car was due for an oil change at the time. I was taking it in for the oil change 100 miles before the due date. A week earlier and the day before the car displayed a low oil pressure indicator on the display. Those were the first times in my life I've seen that message. I contacted the parts department of the troncalli Jeep Dodge dealership I had bought the vehicle from later that day. I asked why the engine stopped and the man I spoke to said probably had something to do with how the engine was made. In which the engine could stall if the oil level is half a quart over or under the minimum or maximum level. That was the 1st instance of my vehicle stalling.

While letting off the gas to slow down to either a stop or around a curve; the car idles all the way down and dies, the dashboard flashes a message saying 'vehicle must be in park to switch gears'. when I place the vehicle in park it then tells me to push the brake and the start button; when I do the car 'whines' and acts like it's having a hard time starting back up; when it does finally turn over it idles high until I put the car in gear making it jump.

Jan. 5 2020: Service engine appeared while driving. I drove 2 miles from work to home and my Jeep would not accelerate up my angled driveway. I was pressing the accelerator but the vehicle was slowly going backward. I coasted backward to a level area and put the vehicle in park. I put it in drive and then was able to climb my driveway as normal. Jeep was notified. Obd code was U0402 (implausible data received from tcm) and (P1dd2 torque request signal from tcm denied). Jeep and chrystler state there are no recalls at this time.

Had an oil change around 2 months before the issue occured. When pulling out of my drive way the Jeep stopped and shut off. Upon inspection I was low on oil. After adding 3 quarts of oil I found where other people online had similar issues with specifically the 2018 Jeep Renegade 2.4 liter motor consuming copious amounts of oil. Others had they're Renegades stop while driving down the highway but lucky I was lucky enough to be in my driveway. I have always had an oil change on time and through Jeep as well. I also don't understand how they passed and emissions test while the motor burns that much oil.

Twice in the last week, my 2018 Jeep Renegade with around 17,500 miles has stalled after moderately hard braking. In both cases the vehicle had a difficult time restarting. In the last case, the stalling occurred during busy rush hour city traffic and we sat for about minute with traffic passing us while we attempted to restart the vehicle. My girlfriend, a new driver, was driving during this instance and I am concerned for our safety now.

When attempting to accelerate from a stopped position on a driveway the car stalled and the onboard display read "shift into gear". a full loss of power to the engine and transmission occurred. Car had to be restarted to resume driving of the vehicle. The restart was very rough, as if it needed gas. Stall could have caused loss of life or injury if it would have occurred in traffic. This is the fourth time it has occurred. Other vehicles of the same make and model have a recall for a faulty fuel pump and/or power train control module but mine doesn't.

Jeep Renegade 2018, at 12 thousand plus miles, just started using oil. I brought this Jeep brand new, took it in for the regular scheduled oil changes, then all of sudden the oil pressure light came on the Jeep just shut off. I waited a second or so and it started back up. I went back home my husband checked the oil and it was empty. We add a 4 plus quarts of the correct oil. I called the dealership, for an appointment. It took 4 plus days to get an appointment. Before my appointment the oil light came on again. We check the oil and again it barely got any in it. We add just enough to get to the appointment. Now they say I have to drive it 1000 miles for a compression test. They know it's the motor!. I don't understand why I have to be put at risk of breaking down to prove there is something wrong. With all the technology the new cars have why can't they see the issue's on the computer?
