At about 50,000 miles the engine fan has gone bad causing the car to overheat. The car is only 3 years old and I should not have to pay 600-800$ in repairs for a new vehicle there are so many complaints about the exact same thing something should be investigated and done about this.

The engine fan has decided to stop working at only 44k miles!? there are hundreds of others who have had this happen to their Renegade at even fewer miles than this. I had to stop on the side of the road because my 3 year old car was overheating due to a bad or pos engine fan? what if I were in the middle of nowhere and with kids in the car? the dealership says they won't cover it because they haven't had any reports of it yet. . . . . . . .
