Car stalls often. Just started happening, recently, but more and more frequently. Seems like a fuel pump issue, like the 2017-18 Renegade recall was about. Often stalls shortly after start up, and when going slowly, or when coming up to a stop.

When driving downhill 55 mph at an approximate altitude of 5500ft on hwy 80 west in wyoming, my vehicle completely lost all power, engine shutdown and dashboard message said shift to park. Very scary and dangerous situation that I was able to control. I proceeded to park the vehicle on the side of the hwy and shifted to park. I waited for about 15 minutes not knowing what to do. I decided to turn the engine on, which it did, shifted to drive, and drove to the nearest hwy exit. I do not know the exact cause of the issue, but it seems, base on other owners report's that the problem is caused by a failure in the engine fuel pump and/or voltage regulator which it makes sense. Please investigate and recall the issue before someone dies.

The Jeep was staionary. The fuel pump wouldn't come out of the car, leading to the car leaking gas everywhere and then wouldn't start. Took the car back to Jeep dealership, they replaced the fuel fuel tank filler. A week later the Jeep is stationary and then when I turned on the car it wouldn't start and had a flashing lightning symbol and then gas started leaking everywhere from the bottom of the Jeep. I bought this car brand new and only have had it for two years. I feel that I might have a lemon.
Engine stalling saying shift into park. I had it towed to dealership and they are saying my oil is dangerously low. I had an oil change Wednesday April 1st and have noticed no oil leaks. This has to be the fuel pump causing this.
I was on my way to work and stopped at a red light in town on a busy street, when the light turned green I started to accelerate and my vehicle started shaking and started to slow at the same time. I tried to push on the gas pedal but it did nothing. I then noticed on my dash screen it said to shift into park to stop. I was barely able to get over to the side of the road when my vehicle had just stopped. I tried restarting my vehicle after turning my hazard lights on and the engine just kept turning, so I pressed the stop button as the engine would not start. The brake was locked up and and so did my shifter. I then had to call a tow service and had my car towed to my local Jeep Chrysler shop. This happened Sunday on my way to work. Monday afternoon the dealership called and said it was my fuel pump. I purchased my vehicle new in August of 2016 and only have 26975 miles on it. I had to pay the dealership 950. 36 to replace the fuel pump. After doing some research I saw that the 2017-2018 models of my same vehicle have a recall on the fuel pump and will replace them for free. This recall should be extended to the 2016 models as I had the same issue.
When attempting to accelerate from a stopped position on a driveway the car stalled and the onboard display read "shift into gear". A full loss of power to the engine and transmission occurred. Car had to be restarted to resume driving of the vehicle. The restart was very rough, as if it needed gas. Stall could have caused loss of life or injury if it would have occurred in traffic. This is the fourth time it has occurred. Other vehicles of the same make and model have a recall for a faulty fuel pump and/or power train control module but mine doesn't.
Driving down I-95 at a speed of 65 car begins to slow down even while im accelerating, was able to pull car over and once I got on shoulder I cut car off to see if that would help, car would not turn back on at all. Had to get towed to the dealer which they said it was the fuel pump, they fixed the problem only for the same thing to be happening a month later, the car keep doing hard jerks and not wanting to accelerate. I can be in drive and the car will tell me im in park or just shut off on me.
I have had car about two months and it keeps stalling on me and I got almost into an accident because it stalled on a busy street and traffic was coming . Jim click Chrysler into sun arizona they say it's the fuel pump but other things are going on with the car to like the radio and it keeps turning off and the screen for the back up camera turns off on its own so I think there's more going on that car and I'm disappointed in Jeep for making a car that could cause an accident I have to think of the safety of my kids.
Jeep only has 40,000 miles on it and one day driving home on the interstate, the car killed while driving without warning and almost caused me to crash. The car behind me had to swerve to avoid rear ending me as well. Had it sent to a mechanic and he said that the fuel pump failed. Car is only at 40,000 miles and is only 3 years old. Cost to repair it is $800. I looked up cases and apparently this is a known issue with Jeep Renegade fuel pumps and other years 2017 and up have been recalled but why hasn't mine? almost causing a crash and the cost of the repair is the 1st issue, the biggest stressor is the fact that the part is on back order and Chrysler won't ship my mechanic the part for 3 weeks. Yes 3 weeks without a vehicle, lost wages, and missed classes because I have a hard time getting to class for nursing school. I had a rental car that I was paying $27 dollars a day but after 1. 5 weeks, I can't afford that plus the $800+ repair so I returned it. My mechanic also noticed the canister of the evap system is also bad which is another thing that shouldn't be going bad this soon. Now my total is $1075. Plus the $300 of the rental I had to get while Chrysler was taking their time getting the part I needed. Yesterday I had to call corporate to beg them to get this part moving faster. The fact that the part is back ordered, means a lot of other people are having this same issue. It's time to recall this part before it kills someone. I was lucky and was able to correct the car when it was trying to suddenly jerk off the road with speeds of 70 mph. But not everyone might not be lucky and it's a dangerous situation waiting to happen.
Fuel pump module: issues addressed by recall remain unresolved. Was told by dealer that there was a part available, then had our appointment cancelled because they had run out. Driving the car with this issue is dangerous as the car tends to stall when accelerating onto a highway or when making a turn. We have barely avoided accidents on several occasions due to stalling, including one with a semi-truck. Engine: hard idle when cold. Engine rattles loudly. Power train: when car is accelerated to 30 mph range, it "hiccups" or jerks when accelerator is pressed. We have taken the car in for this issue numerous times, but every time we are told that the "computer isn't picking anything up" and problem remains unresolved.
Vehicle in motion on the I-90s in buffalo, NY. Sudden loss of mechanical power to my front wheel drive 2016 Jeep Renegade sport (standard transmission). This occurred on 6/23 at 1:30am following a concert. Driver and passenger were in danger due to a sudden loss of mechanical power to the car and were forced to pull over on a restricted highway overpass. Dealer, west herr (orchard park) quoted fuel pump assembly - mopar (68312374aa) needed to be replaced after a vehicle engine stall at 52092/60,000 (power-train warranty). Replacement of part not covered via power-train as the fuel pump assembly merely contributes to the covered gas engine. Very disappointing to a new owner that had bought used and experienced a significant part replacement which should last the lifetime of the vehicle.
Traveling at 75 mph on highway 25 in new mexico, the began decelerating despite my foot pushing the gas pedal. Service engine kight illuminated. Vehicle had to be towed to Jeep dealership sierra blanca motors in ruidoso nm. Luckily I had cell service to contact aaa. Fuel pump is being replaced now for the second time in 21,000 miles.

While I was driving on the interstate, going 70 mph, my car stopped running and said there was an error. I had a family member help me load it up and take it to the dealership. They told me that my fuel sensor malfunctioned and showed me that I had gas however my car had no gas. I had to purchase an entire fuel pump since the sensor is integrated within the pump. My mileage was 36,000 now my radiator fan assembly needs replaced as it is going out. I am at 41,000 miles now. I noticed a weird noise coming from the motor area while I was idling. I noticed.
8 days after purchasing the car, with around 250 miles on it the car stalled in a the middle of the road. I was going about 25 mph. It stopped accelerating, started shaking, and then the engine died completely. I put it in park and turned it back on, as soon as I put it back in drive it died again. It died 5 times trying to get to the side of the road. I brought it into the dealership and they told me that they couldn't replicate the issue and when I mentioned the open recall they stated my VIN was not part of it and sent me on my way. A few weeks later it stalled again in the middle of the road coming to a stop light, going about 20 mph. It stopped accelerating, started shaking, and then the engine died completely again. I brought it back in to the dealership, again nothing. The third time it happened I was driving about 40-50 mph, it stopped accelerating, started shaking, and then the engine died completely. They finally replaced the fuel pump, still said it wasn't the recall though. It hasn't happened in the 1500 miles since they replaced it.
I took the vechicle for the recall for a replacement on the fuel pump module and I was told they didn't have it and that I would get a call for the replacement. I still have not received a call and now I cannot renew my vehicle registration. I have called them multiple times and I just get the run around. I am now going to ha e to pay late fees and I my tags will be expired. This vehicle is my principal car for transportation to get to work. Who is going to be responsible for this now.
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.
My vehicle is stalling out while in motion when turning onto a city street on multiple occasions. The vehicle will still be on, but pressing on the gas does nothing. The vehicle is in gear when this happens. I am worried it may be a fuel pump as I just purchased the vehicle in October 2018.
I have a 2017 Jeep Renegade. There is a massive recall on them due to the car shutting off due to fuel pump and oil sensor issues. I have had the vehicle shut off on me in intersections and on the highway and is very unsafe to drive. I contacted chrystler and they said that they are not fixing this recall until after the 1st quarter is over due to part and funding issues. They refuse to help me with this issue. I cannot drive this vehicle due to unsafe conditions.
I purchased my car back in may of 2018 and have noticed inconsistencies with my fuel consumption as well as a strange kicking feeling when driving at times. I received a notice in the mail in December shortly after going in for some maintenance which detailed the underlying issue. It said that the current fuel pump module on this car is prone to cavitation and that the spontaneous loss of fuel may result in a "sudden loss of motive power, which may cause a vehicle crash without prior warning. " I called the number provided on the notice and was again informed that there are no parts available currently to remedy this issue. The call center rep also indicated that the issue was made public in October. When I asked if there was any timeframe for how long it might take for the needed part to materialize, I was told that there was "none at this time. " I am very disappointed that the manufacturer would produce cars with such a glaring problem then not offer any specific remedies or solutions for the people driving them. They recognize the part has to be replaced but this is obviously not a priority for them as they have not provided a solution for months now. The only solution I have been offered was to be reimbursed for select damage to the vehicle that may occur after the fact. I believe that is blatant irresponsibility on the part of the manufacturer and would like this part made available as soon as possible as I am now in a position that I can no longer reliably travel in the vehicle I'm continuing to pay for. I hope you will see my complaint and respond at your earliest convenience. I realize I'm just an average consumer but I feel like manufacturers have to be held liable for incidents along these lines. I can't help but feel like I'm driving a ticking time bomb with no evidence to the contrary.
Fuel pump recall: may cause car to stall and result in a crash. Every time I turn my car on, it is overly loud and when I'm driving you can hear guzzlingn noises. No inspection was offered on my car. My car was bought at a Jeep dealership 2 days prior to this recall which was over 2 months ago. Reached out to the fca and they got me in contact with dealerships who did not have the parts readily available and could not give me an eta. I insisted that I have two small children and I did not feel comfortable driving around a vehicle that could at any time cause a crash because of a defected part. I was told it was a one in a million chance that this could happen, which obviously is not the case if a recall was issued. I was told I would receive a call back from the dealership on Monday and had to call back two days later because I had not heard back. I made an appointment to go in, and when I went in the sales manager told me that the fca hadn't released the part for a recall that's over two months old and their hands were tied until the part comes in. I was told that if I traded in the car I was looking at a huge negative equity I would be paying for a car I had, again, bought two months prior. I was not advised on the buy back option, but just told I would have to take my chances until the part came in.
Tl the contact owns a 2017 Jeep Renegade. While driving various speeds, the engine idled roughly and randomly shut off on two separate occasions. The vehicle was taken to step one automotive (8701 abercorn st, savannah, GA) where it was diagnosed that the fuel pump module was faulty. The module was replaced, but the failures continued. The VIN was included in NHTSA campaign number: 18v731000 (fuel system), but the parts were not available. The manufacturer was notified of the failures. The failure mileage was 20,000. VIN tool confirms parts not available.
While driving 80 mph on the interstate the car suddenly stalled. The fuel was over half full and oil was with normal ranges (checked before trip). This is the 5 such instance of this happening between accelerating from a stop lightroom driving on the highway. The first couples times dealership tried to say it was the viscosity of the oil caused it to be lower than the car read it to be. An oil change was done. Nothing else. This time the dealership is going to replace the fuel pump.
Takata recall. Was driving at 75 mph on cruise control when my Jeep slammed on the breaks. It then proceeded to have surges. No lights came on. It completely shut off but was still on. A error came on stating to service transmission. Took to a dealership that said it was needing an update with the computer. Went 340 more miles the next day and it done the exact same thing. Lost all power steering. No warning lights came on. Got towed and they told me no codes came up while plugged into the computer. Was then told it was the fuel pump and would be a two week wait. Was told it's been a very common thing with the 2017 Renegades so they're back ordered. I was also told that the dealership the day before bypassed something to send me on my way. Called Chrysler and they aren't helping at all. And I'm still 480 miles from my home. There should definitely be a recall on them. It will end up getting someone killed.
I'm concerned about recall number 18v-731. The letter we received said a solution would be available by the end of q4 2018. I called our dealership today and confirmed there is no solution yet. This is an extremely dangerous issue. Cavitation from a bad fuel pump really doesn't describe what it's like to have your engine stall out on you at interstate speeds in heavy traffic while going uphill. Twice. A third time it occurred on a simple city street. We were almost involved in a serious accident the first time it happened. No warning, no check-engine light, no sputtering or less-responsive engine - nothing. Just stalled out. The issue is likely to occur in hot summer time and driving up hills. We live in hilly tucson, arizona where it will hit 90deg tomorrow. This is unacceptable and I believe the manufacturer claiming its just a faulty fuel pump is bogus. If it was that simple, why is there no new fuel pump available? why are the fuel pumps on new inventory okay, but they can't produce one good enough to satisfy this recall? after experiencing the issue several times, I think the problem lies in the software, or how the sensor reads the fuel pressure or engine temps. The car didn't heave or sputter before the issue arose - the engine just cut out. I've driven old cars with poor fuel pumps before and they let you know before they die. And they don't come magically back to life once you pull off the road and turn the car off and immediately back on again. Software does that - not mechanical failures. I refuse to put my family at risk again this summer, and summer comes fast in southern arizona. Please help me look out for my little family. We don't have the money to trade our defective Jeep in for another vehicle, and really need this car to work. This is a dangerous issue that I feel is not being properly respected by the manufacturer. Thank you -.
A recall without a remedy was issued for part of the fuel pump system and it can shut the vehicle down in higher than average temperatures. I had this happen last June (2018) and the recall was issued in October. The original notice said it would be resolved by q4 of 2018. It is now April of 2019 and I live in florida, which means higher than average temperatures every day. I have two children under 5 and cannot risk the safety hazard of my car potentially shutting down in the middle of the highway! this should have been fixed 5 months ago!.
My Jeep shut itself off while in motion on a city street on three separate occasions. I had to coast to the side of the road. The vehicle was diagnosed with a "fuel pump issue".
I have been saving for ever to buy the card of my dream: a Jeep Renegade and I finally got it. I have been driving for thirty-five years and not even a parking ticket and with the same insurance for fourteen year (geico). One evening on my way to the supermarket and while making a left, I felt as if the vehicle was not moving, I kept pressing on the gas and it slide very slowly, and boom! I was hit on the back on the passenger side by an old pick truck. (a left in az, you are negligent). What a nightmare! the police taking the report was something that I could not explain, him talking and laughing with the young men that hit me as if he knew the relatives that came to aid. I called my insurance for a tow truck and they were unable because their computers were updating. I just knew that I was not negligent, and I was right. I received a safety recall for Jeep Renegade 2017 from the fca stating that a loss of fuel pressure may lead to an engine stall resulting in a sudden loss of motive power, which may cause a vehicle crash without prior warning. Remedy: all of the involve vehicles must have the fuel pump module replaced. To get an appointment at more Chrysler to see if they had the part for the car it was a hassle, a lady at the service department had no idea if they had anything and finally today, I call several agencies I had idea existed (8/12/2019). Did I get an attorney? unless there is death, dismemberment, diu an the such there is no case. My intact driving record is damage (that is another story of what I went through), I have floating ribs and pain in all parts of my body. I am grateful to be alive. The very least I want is vindication for my driving record. How?.
Driving along at about 40 mph on a rural road on vacation out west when the vehicle quit accelerating. Coasted to roadside. Upon turning vehicle off, made sounds for a while. Let it rest and tried to restart on multiple occasions. No luck. The vehicle was towed and dealership said the fuel pump had to be replaced. Mileage was 64k. The fuel pump is not considered part of the power train so this was not covered under warranty.
Tl- the contact owns a 2017 Jeep Renegade. The contact stated that while driving at various speeds the vehicle had suddenly shut off. The vehicle taken to the local dealer underwood Jeep/chysler (2626 cleveland rd, wooster OH) who diagnosed that the fuel pump was faulty and needed to be replaced. The vehicle was repaired but the failure continued to occur. In addition while operating the vehicle the emergency brake would suddenly activate causing the vehicle to abruptley stop in the middle of traffic. The vehicle was taken back to the local dealer haasz Chrysler (315 s. Mill st. Dalton OH) and repaired. (repair information was not available) but the failure eventually would reoccur. The manufacturer was notified of the failure. The failure mileage was 200. Jft.
2 weeks after buying my brand new Renegade, it completely shut off on the freeway & I had to coast over 3 lanes of traffic to the shoulder. Not only did my Jeep leave me stranded, I could have been ran over at 80 miles an hour. Just before shutting down, my car would not shift gears and began to lose speed even though the rpms were hitting the red marks. It was serviced, and given 2 software updates. A week later, the same thing happened. You can push the gas pedal to the floor, but the vehicle does not accelerate, instead it dies, however the rpm's go up as high as they can go but my car won't shift gears. Now it is in the shop (for over a week), supposedly getting a new fuel pump, which I do not think is the ultimate problem. I have read about the 9 speed automatic problems and this is exactly what keeps happening. After putting me in danger twice, I feel certain as soon as I get my new fuel pump and drive home, this will break down again. I have had the Jeep one month, brand new.
