general problems of the 2017 Jeep Renegade - part 2

Oil consumption problem (oil completely empty) the car stalled while driving in the neighborhood. Started acting up and being sluggish while on the highway. No sensor, engine light, or notice to add oil came on. When the car stalled, checked the oil and it was completely empty. Has happened more than once. ,.

My vehicle display message �vehicle not in park� while driving anywhere at various speeds. Once msg display, vehicle loses powers. This has happen while driving on freeway. It is intermittent issue. I have open numerous case with Chrysler / fca but because dealer is not able to duplicate they won't repair. I read on internet there is defect in engine. Also vehicle displays service passive entry system. They reset software and issue returns.

Have had vehicle since 2018. For 2 years, I have had 3 cylinder misfires (with the last one about to happen at any moment) and my vehicle has stalled while driving (once on the freeway) about 8 times. I had to pull over each time to a complete stop. The vehicle stating "vehicle cannot change gears until stopped. " once I turned off the engine, it takes about five minutes to restart the engine. The cylinder misfires always begin with aggressive jerking while vehicle is in motion. Lasting a few months, leading to aggressive shaking once misfired. On occasion, while vehicle is stopped, seat belt will also not buckle and in the last two years seat belt has also come unbuckled twice while vehicle is in motion.

I was jumping ooff my gf car for the 10th time over a course of time, this time for some reason my Jeep caught fire and now is totaled and it also caused her car to catch fire. So not only did it damage my Jeep but damaged her car as well.

Within 6 months of purchasing new car,the computer needed to be replaced in dash-uses 1 qt. Oil every 2000 miles. Ive complained and complained to no avail-dealerships all say its �normal� now. The transmission is slipping . -when u go from a low speed to a higher speed. I took it to dealership and they think it needed an update ?also,oil was leaking around transfer case;I noticed spots on concrete when parked and the liquid was clear. This car has literally been a hunk of junk!.

The esc, abs, steering torque control, 4wd, parking brake lights all came on. The dealer told me that a rodent had chewed the wiring for a rear wheel speed sensor because it has soy based insulation. The vehicle had been parked over night, but gets driven every day.

Cooling fan has been replaced twice in the last year and now on 3rd time going out.

Backup camera is blacked out on screen. Shows graph lines.

Car is lagging and wobbly. Loses power. Completely shut off while driving. Loss of all electrical screens. Service engine light did not appear until after several times of car losing power.

Vehicle seems to be slipping or missing. Something is definitely wrong. Purchased from carmax, called and had the car checked out thru they're service department. They couldn't find anything wrong. Husband reset transmission but same problem exists. Called local Jeep dealership to check it out, they told me to take it back where I purchased. Which I said I already had, he still said take it back to them, so they can take it to get it looked at. Sounds like run around to me. Can you help me?.

The hose that holds the widow wiper fluid is made of cheap plastic and has cracked and leaks badly on the drivers side of the passengers section. I found a youtube video wher the exact same thing happened to someone else car. Same model same problem and can cause other water damage. I have a video.

I have had the Jeep Renegade for about 2 years and the car has started to jerk into gear while driving at around 30 miles per hour. It happens intermittently. I have changed gas types and gotten new air filters, etc. With no resolution. It seems that from reading the reviews on this site, there is some common experiences from other Jeep Renegade owners. At this point it does not seem like a danger to the driver but curious to know if it will lead to a more serious problem long term.

Engine light came on; took vehicle to dealer (have an Chrysler?Jeep factory extended warranty. I was informed that because the oxengine sensor harness was chewed by a rodent (probably a chipmunk) that the warranty would cover repair. I have since out that the sheathing for wires used by the manufactuor is made from soybean oil or peanut based oil. I ask is this, my fault or the manfacturers fault? I did not nor would I put rodent food in a vehicle. If rodents chew brake lights , this could cause a fatal crash. The vehicle was stationary parked in my home driveway. I have the repair invoice and the chewed oxegine sensor w/harness.

As I excelerate any where between 25-32 mph, the car jerks forward (with a feeling of being hit from behind).

My Jeep has shut down three times while I was pulling into traffic, low oil pressure warning came on. I get my oil change regularly and I only have 25,000 miles on it. I took it to dealer and was told that my Jeep is known for burning a lot of oil. What can I do, it scares me to drive it. Please help!.

My check engine light came on and my engine started overheating. The radiator cooling fan just stopped working for no reason. It also blew out the relay amd fuse. I was told that this is out of warranty and a new fan assembly needs to be installed. The Jeep is only two years old and has 39,232 miles on it. After researching this is I find out that at least 66 other 2017 Jeep remegade owners have had their radiator fans go out at 40,000 miles. This isn't an isolated issue and the part has to be recalled. Chrystler and Jeep are unhelpful and unwilling to admit to the problem.

The Jeeps tiyrod broke while driving down hwy could not steer the vehicle this resulting the Jeep veered off the road an slamming into a telephone pole we had taken the vehicle to b serviced months before an the dealership stated that they would not look at or even. Help us they sent us away leaving us concerned on how we could go about getting the dealership to help an not long after that the accident happened.

I've noticed over the past few weeks my Jeep seems hesitant shifting gears, especially going from reverse to drive. This is an automatic transmission. Last week, after backing put of the driveway and starting down the road, the vehicle stalled and read "park vehicle to shift". I had to stop in the middle of the road, and turn the car off twice and restart it in order to get her going again. Luckily, as embarrassing as it was, the vehicles waiting on me were very polite and patient. This happened again yesterday evening. I backed out of my parking spot and turned onto the road. The vehicle stalled out and read "park vehicle to shift". I again turned the car off and went to turn it on. She sputtered and sputtered and the ect light popped up on the dash before she finally turned over and the light went away. I was going out of town that night and I was a little nervous about getting stranded. I did make it back home, but the next morning, she did the same thing. I made it down the street this time and she stalled out while I was stopped at the stop sign before turning 9nto a 4 lane highway. Good thing she stalled out before I had pulled onto the highway. I followed suit and had to restart her once or twice and she sputtered and sputter which just broke my heart. My fuel was low this morning and we limped over to the gas station, she was shifting weird the entire time. I didn't turn her off because I was afraid she may not have turned back on. After getting gas, she started to run more smooth but she still hesitates to shift.

Pulls to passenger side the wheels were cockeyed the dealer refuses to fix it correctly the dealer left two brand new ones on the front and almost wore off tires on the back and they had to put brand new brakes and rotors on the car because it started making really really bad sounds they don't want to fix it and I think they kirk and safety recalls on this car I think they did said they fix them so they can get it off the carfax to sell the car just keep in mind this car only has 24,464 on it and I'm a single dad I filled it I'm getting screwed around buy a multi billion dollar company frank fletcher Ford joplin missouri.

Ever since the beginning of November 2019, my Renegade has been stalling when I am in the middle of driving. It started out to be a couple of times but it now does it every time I turn it on and drive. It has stalled on me when I have been in the middle of busy roads and has almost caused accidents. I notice that it will stall if I am turning a corner or if I have just started it up and driving off within the first few minutes. I know there are a lot of complaints by other 2017 Renegade owners but I have the deserthawk edition and I haven't seen anything for my model. I take very good care of it and it is only a couple of years old. The stalling problem that I am having seems to only be getting worse.

According to the dealer I must check my oil every 1k miles to check the oil level. This is about the 3rd time my car has stopped in the middle of traffic. When I call the dealer all they say is did you check your oil. The last time this happened was on sun, Nov 3, 2019. Why are companies allowed to sell products they are fully aware have defects, to turn around and make it the consumers responsibility.

Car hesitated at the beginning I take foot off gas n it like skips or thumps hard to explain but kinda like the gas peddle sticks then lets go with a crank sound mainly when low on gas but every now n then for no reason im short so I dont like just let go in a hurry,no one takes me serious been in shop like foiur times they said I got a fuel modual recal replacement but im not sure why this continues to happen.

Driving on 95 doing about 60 miles per hour car slowed down with my foot on the gas pedal. While driving my dash board flashes to put my car in gear. Once I was able to get on the shoulder and cut car off it would not cut back on. I could have died or killed someone else. This is unacceptable currently waiting for road side assistance. This is very very scary and just to have my 60k services completed on September 21st and 28th 2019 and just had brakes done on October 10th 2019. Now I can understand why the dealership has been calling, emailing and sending letters in the mail harassing me about selling my car back to them. All everyone has to do is be honest and say hey there may be an issue with your vehicle and you may want to get out of it now.

Jeep quits for no apparent reason while driving down the road. No dash lights come to indicate a problem. Can't drive the car because scared of getting into an accident. This has happened at least 5 times over the last 2 weeks.

My car keeps ringing seat belt alert even when seatbelts are on. The panel lights up and says service emergency break and air bags. Also at times I get alert saying fob key is not in vehicle at same time I am driving down the road. I have to drive to NY from FL and back again and am afraid to drive.

My vehicle runs out of oil prior to my oil change. Randomly while driving and making left or right turns, my low oil pressure notice will pop on and disappear and then stall on me. Was told by my the dealer that this is related to pressure consumption.

The 2017 wont turn off after you turned on and all the panel light malfunction. The car only turn off if I unplug the battery. According with the warranty of the car passed state law and it cant be replace which I think is crazy since any malfunction can happen and cause an accident. Also the Jeep wont turn off . The dealer doesnt know hot to fixed since no code is giving. I am afraid of using the car for my own safety and family, and all I want is a replacement.

Engine cooling fan was replaced at 50 thousand miles, codes show that that is malfunctioning the transmission threw codes dead battery. It locks up and doesn't want to start even after replacing the battery. Their was two different sensors that threw a code. I've gotten a message to service the airbags. On everything I have told you the car was sitting still. Except on the transmission, when it goes from 3rd gear to passing gear it shifts really hard. And it feels like it's going to stall out. I maintain regular oil changes . Average of 1 per month. It's been well taken care of. At 50 thousand miles it started having a lot of little things go wrong. I feel like I bought a lemon and no one is willing to admit it.

Vehicle at first was not turning on then the following day on my way to work it stalled in the highway I was pressing the gas but it just wouldn't accelerate. It was extremely dangerous could have cause an accident. Just on side note I just bought this car from a used car dealership about 2 months ago.

Vehicle has stalled twice now. Once on a mountain road around a danger curb and also on a highway. Luckily, both times was able to pull to side of the road. It always starts back up but extremely terrified to drive it. Brought to Jeep dealership and they can not find a problem. Also, oil light comes on regularly now with low oil. Burning a lot of fuel. I know for a fact I am not the only one experiencing this issues. They are all over the internet. My wife has a Renegade as well and her's stalled out once. I feel like Jeep is not taking this seriously. Someone will get killed if this keeps happening.

These are the failures that showed on the panel; 1. - hill start assit not available 2. - dynamic steering torque not available 3. - esc system service 4. - steering column tends to be hard to move.

While I'm driving down the highway my car starts to feel like it is cutting off. So I have to push on the gas in hope that it will stop it from cutting off. It does cut off going down a street and cars have to swerve from hitting me and people are blowing their horns and me and hitting their brakes so that they don't hit me. I had a baby in the car with me. This is something that has been going on for months. This car is not safe at all for no one. It had a recall and it was supposed to be fixed but it's not. It have already been to 4 dealerships and they all say it's fixed they are coming up with something new all the time. This car has scared me.

At a slow rate of speed I pulled into a parking space. Slightly compressing the brake to come to a hault. Instead of braking, the vehicle accelerated into a concrete pillar in front of a building. A red light came on the dash indicating the parking brake, I looked down and it was not on. I pressed the brake again and again accelerated into the concrete pillar rather than stopping.

My Jeep stalls and has trouble starting dies alot wont keep up to speed jerks back up camera glitches alot I was driving to my kids school and on the freeway driving places.

Whille driving the vehicle on a city street and making a right turn and descending a small hill the vehicle "service engine light" illuminates, chimes and the vehicle transmission locks into a random gear (typically 3 or 5th gear) and remains in this gear. It happens over half of the time and results in a very unsafe driving condition as the vehicle is unable to accelerate properly or maintain adequate speed depending on the gear in which it is stuck. The vehicle has to Dodge traffic and pull over in a safe place where the vehicle can be shut off and restarted, which in most cases will reset the transmission and allow it to function closer to normal. Fca in conjunction with the dealer have been attempting to remedy this extremely dangerous situation for 6 months. They have replaced the transmission control module, the transmission, the evap canister and the fuel pump. Fca and the dealer are stating this is "normal" function and that the turn or the hill must be extreme operation. This is happening at a slow speed turn of 10-15 mph. I have video recordings which have been shared with fca and the dealer and I would gladly share with NHTSA. As a former vp at a tier one automotive supplier, I can assure you this is not extreme operation and is a significant safety issue which the manufacturer is unwilling to rectify. If the manufacturer is unable to identify the root cause of what could potentially be a software related safety defect it could result in additional Jeep Renegades operating unsafely on public roadways. Please advise where I can send all the video evidence.
