1 Suspension problem

Failure Date: 12/07/2019

I am contacting you due to due to baxter service rep paul at baxter Chrysler Dodge Jeep ram dealer refusal to repair recalls for my Jeep Renegade. The recalls that generate from my insurance company allstate are indeed recalls my vehicle needs based on performance issues. He informed me that they're not recalls, and when I said allstate made them up, he said �yeah�! the information for the 4 recalls are from data. Gov. The service department at baxter says they are only going to repair the recall (for engine cooling fan) that Chrysler website shows! please advise &/or assist to resolve this issue! I have reported to the assistant service mgr justin sunquist and bbb as well. Thanks.

4 Suspension problem

Failure Date: 07/24/2019

There is a terrible under carriage noise as if one of the welds didn't hold. I took it to a repair shop and they said that the pan under the car was making noise and I would have to take it to the dealership. It was not damaged by anything, it just started making this noise.

5 Suspension problem

Failure Date: 06/29/2019

I was driving on a paved highway at about 50 mph when I felt a slight wobblling sensation that felt like it was coming from the rear of the vehicle. I let off the accelerator and applied my brakes and the vehicle suddenly veered sharply into the oncoming lane of traffic. I turned the steering wheel to get the vehicle back in my own lane and the vehicle veered sharply back toward my lane and started to go off the road. Then the vehicle started veering sharply back and forth between both lanes and I had no control with the steering wheel. I had let off the accelerator when it started veering all over the road. At one point the vehicle was turning sideways and I thought it was going to roll over. I was approaching a sharp curve and the vehicle was headed towards a power pole and 3 concrete irrigation boxes. I kept tapping the brakes until the vehicle stopped, running off the road near the power pole, but fortunately did not make impact with the power pole or the concrete irrigation boxes. When I got out to see what happened, the rear driver's side trailing arm was hanging down and was no longer attached to the vehicle. Weather conditions were sunny, about 80 degrees and the pavement was dry. No police report was filed since I did not hit anything. I had just met another oncoming vehicle approximately 10 seconds prior to this; had the timing been differently I would have hit them head-on with no way to steer the vehicle to avoid the collision. Vehicle was then driven approx. 1 mile to my house at 5-10 mph.

6 Suspension problem

Failure Date: 12/15/2017

The rotors wear out but the brake pads are still good it has already wore out 2 sets the brakes grab and stick it jerks you hard right or left. We cant get the company to do anything they act like its our fault. Also it sways really bad in the rear end feels like your riding a old mule hobbity-hoe. Also the transmission has a delay in shift &shifts really hard. The vehicle only has 44,000 miles. We are going to get hurt in this vehicle and can't get any help.

7 Suspension problem

Failure Date: 01/17/2016

Engine light has been on lighting on and off. I went to mechanic and it's the coolant thermostat. Which might be affecting my intake air temperature. In cold weather engine light goes off and in hot weather it turns on. This causes my Jeep to struggle when I want to spend up on highway. The other annoying problem is that when I'm in idle at a stop light the Jeep shakes so much that I feel it all over car. It also has a very loud noise to it. My other problem is when someone is sitting on the passenger side my volume to my radio goes down. Never fails. I have taken it to the dealership and they tell something completely different. I had my Jeep diagnosed 3 times and it comes out that it's the thermostat. Dealership was telling it was the fuel injector which has nothing to do with coolant issues. I also hear my transmission click hard when changing gears from drive to reverse. It is an automatic transmission. ## #vpic# 1 - check digit (9th position) does not calculate properly #vpic#.
