The car stalls out while driving on several occasions I have had to completely stop turn my car off pump the gas and then restart. The first three month of the purchase I had to have it towed back to the dealership because the car stopped completely and wouldn't not start again no matter how long it was being jumped off . I called the tow truck who used special jump box and he still couldn't get it to crank. Now here it is a less than a year later and the same issue again.
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.
When turning on car all warning lights came on and then each one started flickering one by one. Then my transmission light and warning message came on. Car would start but locked itself and couldn't shift gears . I tried unlocking it and shifted to reverse it would not accelerate and would get stuck in that gear so had to manually unlock and shift to drive and couldn't accelerate. Couldn't turned it off gear shift would lock itself. Happened while heading back home. So I took it to the dealership and saw the recall for transmission. They ended up doing something else that I didn't say yes to now they are charging me for it and while my car was getting repaired. They gave me a loaner car, I get in car accident in their loaner car I had insurance but only liability. Dealership won't give my car back until I pay in cash a deductible of 2,500 and plus repairs I didn't agree to.
2015 Jeep Renegade limited 4x4 has stalled while driving on 3 separate occasions since purchasing it used from dealership in January 2019. It stalls while in stop and go traffic without any warning. I have to put in park, push the start button to turn it off, and then push the button again with foot on break to start it again. Thankfully this has only happened while driving slowly (10-15 mph) in a line of cars towards a stop sign however this is extremely unsafe!.

I was driving my vehicle when I was getting notifications on my dashboard of different things from torque to transmission. The vehicle then suddenly stalled while I was in the middle of the road. I was at a red light thankfully. I turned my vehicle off/on, then as put the vehicle in drive, I could hear a loud bang and then I drove into a parking lot.
Not even 1 month of purchasing the Jeep I was driving on I 40 when all the sudden the Jeep shifted into neutral so shited it back into drive and took it straight to larry h miller and they had it for 3 days I got it back and since that day it pops into neutral again at least 5 more times this time I was driving it on a business road so now I always have to keep my hand on the shifter just inase it happens again and also my lights keep going dim my radio lights and my light in the whole Jeep and every time apon acceleration the Jeep seems like it skips.
Transmission keeps jerking - no power to engine.
At times, my radio has turned off on its own and when I'm on the phone it will disconnect from the bluetooth to my phone multiple times during the call. Another issue I'm having is when I am driving, it has fallen dead on me in the middle of the road and won't restart. It's happened at a traffic light and while driving. I've tried turning off my lights, radio, a/c to restart with no luck. Each time I've had to get towed home. I have a standard transmission. Each time it's happened, I've had fresh oil, gas and a good battery. Lastly, sometimes I'll start smelling something like a burning smell as if something is hot or overheating, but I never get a message on my dash. Ive also taken it to the dealership and they said nothing was wrong. I don't know what is going on and I got it Nov 2017.
Tl the contact owns a 2015 Jeep Renegade. The contact stated that most of the warning indicators illuminated on the instrument panel, such as the fuel gauge, oil change needed, and check engine.

The engine coolant fan keeps burning out, having my second fan replaced at 62,000 miles.
The vehicle switched gears on its own, couldn't recognize when I tried to put it in park or any other gear, and stalled out on me. Now shows that the power steering needs to be serviced.
Won't start - then starts. Have replaced battery twice and abs module. No improvement dealer has had a month now with no solution.
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.

The coolant fan went off track and started squealing and getting stuck, causing the fuse to blow. Within a month, and after replacing the fuse 3 times, the fan motor stopped working and burnt up completely. Attempted to replace it with another fan, and it blew the fuse again and burnt up the new fan motor also. Also, within the last month (today being 9/20/2018) my car has been jumping and shaking when in drive mode. Mainly occurs after speeds of 40+ mph have been reached and when vehicle has been driven for a longer length of time.

Twice in two weeks, while driving, the engine has shut off. The first time is happened was on October 29th, 2017 and the next time was this morning November 9th. The first time happened on a city street while slowing down to make a left hand turn, and the other happened with the foot on the gas trying to merge onto I-90 from the ogden on ramp. The radio and interior electrical systems continue to work, but the engine has shut off. Turning the key won't just turn on the car again. You have to hold it in the on position a few times for it to finally turn on.
I was driving down the highway, speeding up to reach the 70 mph speed limit, when suddenly my car stalled out and began decelerating.

Cooling fan motor smoking perfusely. And wobbling making a rattling sound, working intermitently.
My radiator fan assembly was vibrating while the engine was running. It has now failed. The part has over 4000 back ordered with no eta available.
While sitting at a stop light, smoke began to come out from under the hood and the check engine light came on. I pulled over as soon as came to a parking lot.

The issue is that there are no replacement parts available from the manufacture. The dealer has another one just like mine that has been there for over a month for the same issue.
