States "parking light" is out and it is and I cannot replace it. It also shakes when I get up to 70 mph.

I was driving my car as an automatic not shifting it. All of a sudden the info section says down shift as I was turning, I was in motion the whole time, I did not stop to turn. And it dies. Right in the road while driving. I have looked and my VIN doesnt come up as a recall but this OH my god I was lucky I was on a back road to be ok, if I had been on a busy road or interstate my family and I would be dead. What is wrong with it. I need this fixed ASAP. This is my only means of transportation. Help me!!!!!!!.

I was driving the vehicle on a busy street that has a speed limit of 40 mph I was on my way to drop my child off to school. The vehicle all of a sudden shuts off completely and I got really scared so I hit the brakes but the brakes were not working they locked. I tried again and the second time the brakes went all the way to the floor, they did not work. I was so scared I didnt know what to do I could'nt stop the car it turned back on by itself and the brakes worked again. Second time the car malfunction my husband and I went to pick up a pizza and we put the car in park, the car shut off and so did the gps screen. It came back on right away and nothing else happened that night. Third occasion that I was in the vehicle and it malfunction we got in the car and my husband turned the car on as he put it drive as we were leaving the front of the car like the wheels made a popping sound and the engine got really loud. The engine noise only lasted about two minutes and went away. My husband did tell the dealer were we bought it from and also Jeep/Chrysler is aware that the brakes have been malfunctioning. There is a liqued coming out of the brakes or caliper that its yellow, that is not save and should not be happening especially on a brand new vehicle. The driver side window as well does not work properly, it stops in the middle or it just does not work. The salesman who sold us the car mentioned to my husband that the car idles and that car does not do that. Also we were told that the vehicle is suppose to detect any objects near it and make a beeping noise which does not happen at all. Then we took it to three dealers two of them who did not find anything wrong with the car and one of them did find the issues we have stated. They told us that the waranty does not cover the issues. My husband spoke to Chrysler and they will not do anything. The vehicle is not safe.

The traction control on this vehicle will engage at random when turns are are made. When this happens, the vehicle will lose power and it's momentum will cease. I believe this behavior caused an accident I was in which resulted in the total loss of the vehicle. I was making a dog leg turn merging into traffic, with the lost of momentum I was hit on the right rear. The traction control engaged the day before as well. This issues is reported by other individuals on various web boards. It was fortunate that there was no serious injury.

Was driving to work, turned on mains street and car wouldn't accelerate when I pressed on the gas.

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.

I was driving on the highway around 3pm when I attempted to turn on the air and the temperature never adjusted. My coolant indicator turned fully red. My car started smoking and I pulled over and popped the hood to see my antifreeze boiling out of the reservoir. I kept the hood up and waited for it to cool down. The next morning, I drove to my sitter's where I completed my trip and the car started smoking again. Now it's at the shop.

Car will not start. Been having problems for the last 2 years since I bought it. Unreliable. Electricity goes on and off randomly, sun roof wont open, lock button stick, power seat not working.

The electrical system will randomly stop working. The back up camera, will not function, car radio will not turn off/on, heat and air resets while driving, and most recently the vehicle was unable to be turned off.

I have been taking my car to the dealership with the same complaint for over 2 yrs. They charge me for things that they say its not under warranty. I pay but car continues the same as I brought it in. I had to call "corporate" so they can get involved and help me, they did and in a way I was punished by keeping the car for a month and when I asked to get it back they kept telling me they are waiting on parts. At one point my granddaughter got sick (lives with me) and I called them I need my car soon my kid is sick and I was told "get an ubber". Finally after a month I get my car and now is worse than ever. My daughter was driving and car smelled like smoke, all the lights on dashboard started going crazy, the air conditioner went dead and vehicle stopped. I have spent so much money complaining about the same thing and now im without a car again. I need help please. I lost my job and now I had to sell my home due to this pandemic. Im suppose to leave and move to another state this coming weekend and I have no car to leave. How can anyone help me, please.

I was on my way to work, driving about 30 mph, and all of a sudden, some "d" light came on, & then all the lightd came on & then I recieved a message that I need to switch my gears & my tire locked up & my car just shut down. I was not able to turn my car back on. After several attempts to push my start button, after finally getting it to turn back on it stalled out again. I was able to get it to turn on again then I made it home. I started reading blogs & it said to check your oil. I checked it and it was completely empty. I changed my oil last month and barely have driven it. I have a 2018 Renegade with 24k miles on it. If my car did this when I jumped on the highway would of caused a major car accident. No reason why all my oil should be gone.

Vehicle loses all electrical power and stalls intermittently while driving. This happened several times over the last four years of ownership. Not related to extreme temperatures, bumps/vibrations or rain/moisture. Battery was tested and even replaced. It was serviced by dealer the previous episode and was told the software needed updating. Yet here we are again. I have seen other Jeep Renegades with similar issues have a recall for wiring harness. According to mopar this year isn't covered.

On 3 occasions since new my car has consumed all of it's oil. No warning lights or messages occur before this is realized. The only indicator is when turning a corner, a low pressure warning illuminates and power is cut to the engine, which leaves me unable to control the car. Then upon checking the oil level, no oil registers on the dipstick. I've gotten regular oil changes at 7500 mile intervals as reminded by the onboard system. The oil is fully gone by about 6000 miles or less.

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.

I was at a restaurant eating breakfast, after I was done I came out to crank my car and it would turn over but would not start up. The dashboard was stating that I needed esc service, then it said I need airbag service, steering service. I could not turn my steering wheel and my brakes would not push on to start my car. Then the throttle light came on. I had to get it towed.

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.

Car stalls while driving. All lights flash on dashboard flash. Shifter froze.

My etc light came on today as I was backing out of my driveway as well as my check engine light. I turned the car off and when I turned it back on, both lights returned. About a month ago, I finally received my recalls for my fan to be replaced the day after I fixed it. Is this another recall that I wasn't made aware of?.

It was working fine then out of no where the transmission light came on and all the emergency lights started flickering. The shift gear won't move and it won't accelerate when its in drive. Car shakes when shifting gears.

For the last year on and off the warning lights illuminate( service air bags, parking brake, electronic throttle cable, check engine light, power steering light), etc. Last week we were driving with the kids, went to park, got back into the vehicle, started it and all the lights started going off. My husband turned the key to off, pulled it out, and the car kept running. We brought it into the dealer only to have them replace the seatbelt. We got the car back and it happened again today. We were driving, all the lights kept going off, including the power steering light which turns off the power steering so we pulled into a gas station only to turn the key to the off position, pulled the key out and the car kept running. We called the dealer and brought it back in to be serviced. The car is dangerously unsafe!.

Cooling fan went out some electrical power outlets weren't working oil change signal light won't reset when making turns car skids and the 4x4 control kicks in vehicle is shaking, engine problem.

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.

I was driving down the road and my car started stalling and just cut off each time I time to start it and hit the gas the car keep stalling and I was almost hit from behind my car would not move, I sat for 10 mins then I was able to move it out of traffic. Finally I got it started back up drove it maybe 15/20 mins down the road it did the same thing in the middle of traffic causing me to almost be hit from behind. I did the same steps as I did before so I was able to get to a parking lot and I had to have it towed to hendrick in concord they were out of cars he suggested that I could come get my car because they couldn't find anything wrong, I told him why would I drive a car that keeps cutting off that's a danger to me and other people on the road. Next day I had my car towed again to keffer in charlotte because the guy told me they would put me in a car and I explained to him that I can no rent from enterprise I spent $27 on lyft to get there and they didn't have cars I sat there for about 5 hrs and still ended up going home with no vehicle I had to miss a day of work and then I am going to miss another day because they have my vehicle and did not put me in a vehicle and did not want to own up to the fact that there employee gave me false information it seemed like everyone I spoke to blew me off and didn't care. I purchased the vehicle from them for about $24,000. I feed hearing something in my air for months and kept taking the car back and they kept saying they fixed it and I kept hearing and I also notified them about my car not picking up speed and because they couldn't find any codes they couldn't figure it out. I had have almost gotten hit from behind 3 times because my call was not picking up speed when I would switch lanes I could be going 70 on 485 and my car felt like it was going 20 and dealership refused to press the issue. The engine is the problem.

When turning on a snow covered road, slightly up hill, from a county highway into a driveway and experiencing slight wheel spin, the vehicle lost 4-wheel drive and power steering. The esc system became disabled and error codes "service hill start assist", "service esc system" and "dynamic steering torque service required" were displayed as a message on the instrument panel screen and the esc disabled light was turned on. This caused momentary loss of vehicle control.

Not running right.

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.

Was driving this evening, and got about 2 blocks from my house. After stopping at a stop sign, and then continuing through, halfway through the intersection, all service lights came on (service electronic parking brake, service esc, service engine, service transmission), and then it said to shift into park while I lost power and had to coast to the curb. When I got to the curb, the lights next to the shifter (prnd) were flashing until I put it in park. I shut the car off, and when it came back on, only the service engine light remained. I phoned Jeep, and they were going to have it towed to a dealership, but none were open, so I have to wait until the morning, and had to leave my car on the street, because if I went more than 10 feet, the power would go out again and would lose acceleration. There have been issues with transmission jamming into gear when slowing to a stop at a red light, and then accelerating when it turns green, and randomly idling rough. The engine code is u0001. If I had been on the freeway when it lost power, I would not have had time to get over to the shoulder and could have been badly hurt or killed if I got hit by another car.

Was in motion on city street and power steering / traction control randomly cut out causing the vehicle to loose control. This has happened several times. The power will cut the engine sometimes and other times the car just drifts and I cannot control it. I have almost seriously wrecked because of it twice.

The vehicle was stationary. I was listening to music while on my break when I got a warning that the air bags needed to be serviced. Then it cycled through all the components telling me everything needed to be serviced. The radio shut off. The coolant went to high then back down to low. The fuel said it needed to be shut off. The windows would not work. The key fob would not work. I could not get the car to start or shut the lights off. I could not get the car out of gear. It was sitting in a parking lot. Then everything went dark except the parking lights. This car is only three months old. And has 1100 miles on it. I had a previous problem with it losing power while I was driving.

It started four(4) months after I got the car brand new. I was driving home from work, I decided to take the back roads, I could not use my brakes. I took the car in to the dealership and the ecu had to be changed. A few months later my radio was recalled and that had to be changed. I've had a probably four(4) month battle with the day time running lights going off then coming back on out of nowhere. The first time the dtr went out the lightbulb was changed and the metal on the base of the lightbulb was melted off. ( I do not have pictures of it the dealership took it when I showed them) I took it back to the dealership after the second time the light kept going on and off. They checked the vehicle and said the resistance was too high and they didn't know why. Therefore I had to wait on parts to change the wiring and sockets for the dtrs. It is a 2018 Jeep Renegade and I'm very tired of having to take my, not even, two(2) year old car to the dealership to get something electrical fixed every few months. I'm not sure of the date it all started so I approximated.
