2017 Jeep Renegade Engine

THE LOW OIL LIGHT CAME ON AFTER ROUNDING A CORNER. ABOUT TWO WEEKS LATER LOW OIL LIGHT CAME ON UPON BRAKING WHILE LEAVING THE PARKING LOT AND THE ENGINE STALLED. THIS OCCURRED TWO MORE TIMES WHILE STOPING AT RED TRAFFIC LIGHTS. THE NEXT DAY ON THE WAY TO GET THE OIL CHANGED THE BEHAVIOR WAS THE SAME. IF THE JEEP DEACCELERATED TOO QUICKLY, OR WENT AROUND A SHARP CORNER THE LOW OIL LIGHT CAME ON AND THE THE ENGINE STALLED. AFTER THE FIRST STALL, THAT HAPPENED AT A STOP SIGN, THE ENGINE HAD DIFFICULTY STARTING. I NEEDED TO TRY THREE TIMES BEFORE IT STARTED. AFTER THE OIL CHANGE IT IS OK. THE DEALERSHIP TOLD ME IT IS NORMAL THAT SOME ENGINES NEED TO HAVE OIL ADDED, ONE QUART, BETWEEN OIL CHANGES. I TOLD THEM THAT WAS NOT TRUE AND THIS WAS AN UNSAFE DEFECT.

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2017 JEEP RENEGADE. THE CONTACT STATED THAT WHILE DRIVING APPROXIMATELY 10 MPH, THE VEHICLE LOSS MOTIVE POWER WITHOUT WARNING. THE CONTACT PULLED OVER AND RESTARTED THE VEHICLE AND THE VEHICLE OPERATED AS INTENDED. THE VEHICLE WAS TAKEN TO JIM CLICK JEEP (701 W AUTO MALL DR, TUCSON, AZ 85705) WHERE THE VEHICLE WAS DIAGNOSED WITH A CYLINDER NUMBER 4 MISFIRE. THE VEHICLE WAS REPAIRED HOWEVER, THE FAILURE RECURRED. THE MANUFACTURER NOT NOTIFIED OF THE FAILURE. THE APPROXIMATE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS 73,889.

WHILE DRIVING AT APPROXIMATELY 30 MPH, THE CAR JERKS TO SHIFT INTO GEAR. THE CAR HAS BEEN AT THE SERVICE CENTER 4 TIMES FOR THEM TO LOOK INTO/ADDRESS THE ISSUE. I'VE HAD ENDLESS HOURS ON THE PHONE WITH JEEP/SERVICE CENTER TO GET THE CAR REPAIRED. EACH TIME IT'S TAKEN INTO THE SHOP, THEY CAN'T SEEM TO GET THE SAME ISSUE TO OCCUR. HOWEVER, IT HAPPENS TO US ON A DAILY BASIS. I BASICALLY HAVE GIVEN UP HOPE IN JEEPS ADDRESSING THIS ISSUE AS WE'VE RECEIVED NO RESOLUTION YEARS LATER. I'VE ALSO BEEN INFORMED IT'S THE OPERATING SYSTEM WITHIN THE JEEP BEING A 9 SPEED, BUT IT DIDN'T DO THIS FROM THE START, IT OCCURRED ABOUT A YEAR AFTER PURCHASE.

COOLING FAN FAILURE WHILE DRIVING UNDER NORMAL CONDITIONS, PROBLEM REPORTED AND DIAGNOSED BY DEALER. THEY INDICATED WOULD BE OK TO DRIVE UNTIL NEXT SCHEDULED SERVICE INTERVAL. CAR OVERHEATED WAS RETURNED TO DEALER FOR REPAIR AND CONCLUDED NOT A WARRANTY ISSUE WHICH IS UNFAIR DUE TO THE AMOUNT OF THESE FAILURES REPORTED ON THE INTERNET. ATTACHED INVOICE OF $ 817.63 IN REPAIRS WE HAVE UNFAIRLY HAD TO PAY.

PURCHASED THE RENEGADE BRAND NEW AND HAVE HAD IT STALL SEVERAL TIMES. BROUGHT IT TO THE LOCAL JEEP DEALERSHIP AND THEY SAID THEY ARE UNAWARE OF THE ISSUE. GOT THE OIL CHANGED AND NOT EVEN 2,000 MILES LATER STALLED AGAIN AND WHEN I CHECKED THE OIL, IT WAS EMPTY. THIS IS A HUGE IF NOT IMPERATIVE SAFETY ISSUE FOR SOMEONE TO BE DRIVING DOWN THE INTERSTATE FOR A VEHICLE WITH 54,000 MILES NOW TO JUST STALL. THIS IS APPALLING THAT THIS ISSUE HAS NOT BEEN ADDRESSED AND OR RECALLED. IS IT GOING TO TAKE CASUALTIES TO GET SOMETHING DONE? THE FIRST TIME IT STALLED THE OIL LIGHT CANE ON AS I WAS STOPPED AT A STOP SIGN. THE NEXT WAS DRIVING DOWN THE SAME STREET AT THE SAME STOP SIGN. RECENTLY I WAS DRIVING ON A BUSY STREET AND THANKFULLY THERE WERE NO CARS BEHIND ME AND WAS ABLE TO GET TO THE SIDE OF THE ROAD.

THE ENGINE WILL STALL IN TRAFFIC OR GO DOWN THE ROAD. THIS WAS HAPPENED ABOUT FOUR TO FIVE TIME IN THE LAST WEEK. THERE IS RECALLS ON THE 4WD BUT NOT THE 2WD. THIS WILL CREATE A CRASH FOR THESE MODELS. THIS IS VERY DANGEROUS AND NEED TO BE LOOKED INTO.

VEHICLE HAS 14000 MILES, HAS STALLED SIX TIMES IN 13 MONTHS. MOST RECENTLY, DRIVING LESS THAN ONE BLOCK AWAY, MADE A RIGHT TURN INTO A PARKING LOT AND LOST ALL POWER, DASH INSTRUCTIONS STATED THAT VEHICLE MUST BE IN P TO SHIFT GEARS. I WAS NOT SHIFTING GEARS. VEHICLE HAD TO BE SHUT OFF, WOULD NOT RESTART UNTIL ATTEMPTED THREE TIMES. THE RECALL DOES NOT INCLUDE MY VEHICLE BUT ABSOLUTELY SHOULD AS IT IS THE EXACT SAME ISSUE AS THE RECALLED JEEP RENEGADES. THIS IS EXTRAORDINARILY DANGEROUS TO EVERYONE ON THE ROAD. I HAVE TAKEN MY JEEP TO THE DEALERSHIP MULTIPLE TIMES, THEY TELL ME THEY CAN'T FIND THE ISSUE OR THAT IT NEEDS AN OIL CHANGE AGAIN. MY OWNER'S MANUAL STATES THAT THE VEHICLE WILL TELL ME WHEN IT NEEDS AN OIL CHANGE, DEALERSHIP SAYS NOT TO FOLLOW THE MANUAL, TO CHANGE THE OIL EVERY 1,000 MILES. THIS IS THE MOST SERIOUS OF THE ISSUES I HAVE HAD WITH THIS VEHICLE BUT HAVE HAD NUMEROUS PARTS REPLACED IN THE FIRST YEAR OF OWNERSHIP OF A BRAND NEW VEHICLE. PURCHASED BRAND NEW AT $27000, NOW WORTH $14000 AND I CANNOT EVEN DRIVE IT WITHOUT RISKING STALLING AT HIGHWAY SPEED. IT APPEARS THAT THIS IS PRETTY SIGNIFICANT ISSUE FOR OTHER OWNERS OF THIS VEHICLE, WHY IS NOTHING BEING DONE? HOPEFULLY IT WON'T TAKE FATALITIES TO WIDEN THE SCOPE OF THE RECALL OF THIS VEHICLE.

MY 2017 JEEP RENEGADE HAS STALLED MULTIPLE TIMES WHILE DRIVING AND ALSO WHILE STOPPING IN TRAFFIC. THE CAR JUST STOPS AND I GET A WARNING ABOUT SHIFTING TO PARK AND STARTING, WHICH IS DANGEROUS IN TRAFFIC. WHEN TRYING TO RESTART, THE STARTER IS VERY SLOW AND WILL EVENTUALLY START AGAIN. ALL SCHEDULED MAINTENANCE AND OIL CHANGES HAVE BEEN REGULARLY MADE. THIS IS A VEHICLE SAFETY SSUE THAT NEEDS NVESTIGATING.

ENGINE HAS STALLED TWICE UNDER EXERTION AT LOW SPEED. LOW OIL PRESSURE LIGHT COMES ON ESPECIALLY WHEN MAKING TURNS AND ENGINE RUNS ROUGHLY.

I WAS DRIVING MY JEEP RENEGADE AND IT JUST CUT OFF IN THE MIDDLE OF ME DRIVING FOR NO REASON, THE ONLY THING THAT IT SHOWED ON THE DASH WAS YOU MUST PUT YOUR CAR IN PARK TO SHIFT. THERE WERE NO WARNING LIGHTS OR ANYTHING. I TOOK IT TO THE JEEP DEALER THEY PLUGGED IT IN SAID THERE ARE NO CODES IT'S FINE. I LEFT WENT ACROSS THE STREET TO WORK. WHEN I LEFT I PULLED OUT INTO TRAFFIC AND IT CUTOFF. I GOT IT STARTED AFTER A FEW TRIES AND STARTED ON MY WAY TO THE DEALERSHIP. WHEN I WENT TO PULL IN IT CUTOFF AGAIN. SERVICE PLUGS IT IN, NO CODES, HE WANTED ME TO DRIVE IT HOME AND COME BACK IN THE MORNING. I'M LIKE IT CUTOFF TWICE IN TRAFFIC, YOUR KEEPING IT. HE CALLS THIS MORNING SAYS IT NEEDS A NEW MOTOR THERE WASN'T ANY OIL IN IT. THEN HE CALLS BACK LATER SAYS CHRYSLER SAYS I HAVE TO DO AN OIL CONSUMPTION TEST AND THAT THEY ARE DESIGNED TO CUTOFF IF THERE IS NO OIL PRESSURE. WHAT IF I WAS GOING 70 DOWN THE INTERSTATE AND IT CUTOFF. WHAT IF MY 16 YEAR OLD DAUGHTER WAS DRIVING IT AND IT CUTOFF. IN LOOKING UP PROBLEMS WITH THIS VEHICLE IT IS A KNOWN FACT AND HAPPENS ALL THE TIME. HOW CAN THEY SELL A VEHICLE THAT JUST SHUTS OFF WHEN IT FEELS LIKE IT WITH NO WARNING OR WARNING LIGHTS.

2017 JEEP RENEGADE TRAILHAWK 4X4 WITH 35000 MILES. STALLED TWICE ON ME IN THE LAST TWO DAYS. BOTH TIMES I WAS GOING LESS THAN 15MPH TURNING ONTO A STREET. ENGINE JUST DIED AND IT TOLD ME TO PUT IN IN PARK. I DID AND THE FIRST TIME IT STARTED AGAIN AFTER SOME SPUTTERING. SECOND TIME IT TOOK SEVERAL ATTEMPTS BEFORE THE CAR WOULD START. ALSO, THE LOW OIL PRESSURE INDICATOR COMES ON RANDOMLY FOR A SPLIT SECOND SOMETIMES WHEN I TURN THE VEHICLE. I HAD THE SAME PROBLEM ABOUT 8 MONTHS AGO. I TOOK IT TO THE DEALER AND THEY TOLD ME THE TRANSMISSION COMPUTER NEEDED TO BE UPDATED. THEY DID THAT AND IT SEEMED TO FIX THE ISSUE UNTIL IT HAPPENED AGAIN THIS WEEK. I AM TAKING IT TO THE DEALER AGAIN TOMORROW AND ASKING THEM TO CHECK THE OIL PUMP TO SEE IF IT IS CRACKED EVEN THOUGH MY SPECIFIC JEEP IS NOT ON THE RECALL LIST.

THE ENGINE STALLED WHILE I WAS TURNING. I TURNED MY VEHICLE OFF AND BACK ON AND THE ENGINE WOULDN'T START. I DID THIS AGAIN AND THE ENGINE EVENTUALLY STARTED.

MY 2017 JEEP RENEGADE BURNS A TREMENDOUS AMOUNT OF OIL. WHEN THE OIL IS TOO LOW THE CAR JUST SHUTS OFF WHILE TURNING OR ACCELERATING TOO FAST.

ENGINE STALLED TWO TIMES ON DIFFERENT OCCASIONS WHILE DRIVING. THIS OCCURRED BOTH TIMES WHILE TURNING ON A CITY STREET AT AN INTERSECTION. VEHICLE BROUGHT TO DEALERSHIP SAME DAY OF SECOND OCCURRENCE. SERVICE DEPARTMENT FOUND NO OIL ON DIPSTICK. OIL CONSUMPTION TEST BEING PERFORMED AT THIS TIME.

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2017 JEEP RENEGADE. THE CONTACT STATED THAT THE CHECK ENGINE INDICATOR ILLUMINATED. THE CONTACT STATED THAT THE VEHICLE VIBRATED WHEN IN USE AND THE ENGINE SEEMED TO HAVE REDUCED POWER. THE CONTACT CALLED ROSEVILLE AUTOMALL (LOCATED AT 100 AUTOMALL DR, ROSEVILLE, CA 95661, 916-782-5999) AND WAS INFORMED THAT THE CYLINDER MISFIRED AND CAUSED THE FUEL PRESSURE TO REGULATE INCORRECTLY. THE VEHICLE HAD NOT BEEN REPAIRED. THE MANUFACTURER WAS MADE AWARE OF THE FAILURE AND STATED THAT NHTSA CAMPAIGN NUMBER: 18V131000 (ENGINE AND ENGINE COOLING) WAS ISSUED BASED ON A BILL DATE. THE CONTACT'S BILL DATE NEEDED TO BE CORRECTED AND A REPRESENTATIVE FROM THE MANUFACTURER WOULD BE IN CONTACT. THE MANUFACTURER OPENED A CASE REGARDING THE MATTER. THE APPROXIMATE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS 65,000.

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2017 JEEP RENEGADE. THE CONTACT STATED THAT THE ENGINE BURNED EXCESSIVE OIL AND THE OIL INDICATOR ILLUMINATED. THE CONTACT ALSO STATED THAT THE VEHICLE STALLED WHILE DRIVING VARIOUS SPEEDS WITHOUT WARNING. THE CONTACT STATED THAT AFTER THE MOST RECENT OIL CHANGE, THE FUEL PRESSURE AND CHECK ENGINE WARNING INDICATORS ILLUMINATED. SHE CHECKED THE ENGINE AND NOTICED THERE WAS LITTLE OIL LEFT IN THE VEHICLE. THE CONTACT DISCOVERED NHTSA CAMPAIGN NUMBER: 18V131000 (ENGINE AND ENGINE COOLING), WHICH SHE ASSOCIATED WITH THE FAILURE. THE CONTACT CALLED LANDMARK DODGE CHRYSLER JEEP RAM (6850 MT ZION BLVD, MORROW, GA 30260, (770) 968-4900) AND WAS INFORMED THAT THE VEHICLE WAS NOT INCLUDED IN A RECALL. THE MANUFACTURER WAS NOT NOTIFIED OF THE FAILURE. THE VEHICLE WAS NOT REPAIRED. THE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS 50,000.

THIS 2.4L MULTI-AIR ENGINE CONSUMES EXCESSIVE AMOUNTS OF OIL. THERE IS NO "LOW PRESSURE" INDICATION UNLESS THE MOTOR IS A COUPLE QUARTS LOW AND HARD CORNERING OR STOPPING, AND IN THOSE CIRCUMSTANCES THE ENGINE STALLS OUT. THIS FIRST OCCURRED A COUPLE OF MONTHS AFTER PURCHASE, THE DEALERSHIP GAVE ME A TSB PRINTOUT RECOMMENDING I KEEP A QUART OF OIL ON HAND. SINCE THEN EVERY OIL CHANGE I HAVE BEEN LOW AND I'VE ADDED ABOUT ONE QUART PER THOUSAND MILES LIKE THE TSB INDICATES BUT IT IS STARTING TO CONSUME IT WORSE. WHEN I PURCHASED THIS VEHICLE I WAS TOLD THAT OIL CHANGES WERE SUBSTANTIALLY FURTHER APART AND THE VEHICLE WOULD LET ME KNOW WHEN TO DO SO, YET THERE IS NO INDICATION THAT I AM LOW OR OUT. I AM AFRAID IT IS GOING TO BLOW THE ENGINE ON THIS VEHICLE. *DT SEE ATTACHMENT TESTIMONY IS MORE THAN 2,000 CHARACTERS.*JB

WAS DRIVING ON THE FREEWAY AT 70MPH WHEN THE CAR SUDDENLY LOST POWER. THANKFULLY I WAS ABLE TO GET TO AN EXIT AND PULLED OVER SAFELY. CAR WOULD START BACK UP, BUT SPUTTER AND DIE. LET IT SIT FOR 10 MINUTES AND WAS ABLE TO GET IT STARTED AND DRIVE AWAY, 5 MINUTES LATER, CAR DIES AGAIN. SAME PROBLEM, SPUTTERING, NO POWER. CALLED JEEP AND WAS TOWED TO DEALERSHIP.

CAR WILL STALL WHEN SLOWING TO A STOP. HAVE TO SHUT DOWN AND PUT IN PARK. THEN WHEN TRY TO RE START THE ENGINE SOUNDS WIERD AND QUIET AND QPPEARS TO CRANK AND CRANK UNTIL IT FINALLY STARTS. THIS HAPPENS ALWAYS SHORTLY AFTER STARTING TO DRIVE. IT HAPPENED A FEW DAYS IN A ROW AND NO OCCASIONALLY FOR NO REASON. IT LEAVES ME STUCK IN THE MIDDLE OF TRAFFIC. VERY DANGEROUS.*JB

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2017 JEEP RENEGADE. WHILE DRIVING 55 MPH, THE VEHICLE BEGAN TO HESITATE AND THE LOW TIRE PRESSURE WARNING INDICATOR ILLUMINATED. THE VEHICLE WAS TAKEN TO RYBURN MOTOR COMPANY (LOCATED AT 156 US-425, MONTICELLO, AR 71655, (870) 367-5353), BUT WAS NOT DIAGNOSED OR REPAIRED. THE MANUFACTURER WAS NOTIFIED. THE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS 63,000.

BOUGHT A CAR ON NOVEMBER 1ST THEY DID AN OIL CHANGE IT IS LOW ON OIL NOW AND IT'S NOVEMBER 21 2019 CAR ONLY HAS 24465 MILES

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2017 JEEP RENEGADE. WHILE DRIVING APPROXIMATELY 25 MPH, THE CONTACT ATTEMPTED TO SLOW DOWN AND DEPRESSED THE BRAKE PEDAL. WHEN THE BRAKE PEDAL WAS RELEASED, THE VEHICLE LOST ACCELERATION AND STALLED. THE CONTACT COASTED THE VEHICLE TO THE SIDE OF THE ROAD AND "PRESS THE BRAKE PEDAL, PUSH START BUTTON TO START ENGINE" APPEARED ON THE MESSAGE CENTER. AFTER A COUPLE OF ATTEMPTS, THE VEHICLE RESTARTED. THE VEHICLE WAS NOT DIAGNOSED BY THE DEALER OR AN INDEPENDENT MECHANIC. THE MANUFACTURER WAS NOT NOTIFIED OF THE FAILURE. THE VEHICLE WAS NOT REPAIRED. THE APPROXIMATE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS 35,000.

AS I WAS DRIVING MY 2017 JEEP RENEGADE, AFTER I TURNED, MY CAR WOULDN'T ACCELERATE AND A MESSAGE CAME UP TO PUT MY CAR IN GEAR (IT WAS IN DRIVE). LUCKILY I WAS ABLE TO COAST AND PULL OVER. MY CAR KEEP TELLING ME TO PUT MY CAR IN GEAR, SO I PUT THE CAR IN PARK AND PRESSED THE IGNITION BUTTON BUT NOTHING HAPPENED. THEN A MESSAGE CAME UP TO START MY CAR WITH THE KEY FOB. I TOUCHED THE KEY FOB TO THE IGNITION BUTTON AND IT STARTED AGAIN. I WAS ABLE TO DRIVE IT THE REST OF THE DAY, BUT IT WASN'T SHIFTING PROPERLY. AS IT SHIFTED, IT WOULD JERK INTO GEAR. THAT WAS ON SATURDAY, OCTOBER 19TH. TODAY, OCTOBER 23RD, AFTER I TURNED MY CAR SHUT OFF AGAIN. THE SAME THING HAPPENED MY CAR KEEP TELLING ME TO PUT MY CAR IN GEAR, SO I PUT THE CAR IN PARK AND PRESSED THE IGNITION BUTTON BUT NOTHING HAPPENED. THEN A MESSAGE CAME UP TO START MY CAR WITH THE KEY FOB. I TOUCHED THE KEY FOB TO THE IGNITION BUTTON AND TRIED TO START IT AGAIN BUT THE ENGINE WOULDN'T TURN OVER. IT TOOK 5 TRIES TO START MY CAR AGAIN.

THE CHECK ENGINE LIGHT HAS COME ON IN MY VEHICLE TWICE. WHEN THE LIGHT COMES ON, THE VEHICLE JERKS WHEN APPLYING THE BREAKS. THE CAR HAS BEEN LOOKED AT TWICE BY THE DEALER. THE DEALER SAID IN BOTH INSTANCES THAT THIS WAS THE RESULT OF A BAD IGNITION COIL. THE IGNITION COIL WAS REPLACED EACH TIME. THE ISSUE IS NOW PRESENTING ITSELF A THIRD TIME, BUT THE CHECK ENGINE LIGHT HAS NOT COME ON. I BELIEVE THIS VEHICLE MAY HAVE BEEN MISSED IN THE RECENT RECALL FOR THE ENGINE ISSUES.

MY 2017 JEEP RENEGADE STALLED ON THE HIGHWAY. I TOOK IT TO MY JEEP DEALERSHIP AND AFTER ONLY TWO YEARS THEY HAVE TO REPLACE THE ENGINE. I ALWAYS DID THE OIL MAINTENANCE AS RECOMMENDED. I HAVE FOUND THERE ARE NUMEROUS COMPLAINTS FROM OTHER OWNERS OF THAT SAME YEAR HAVING THE SAME ENGINE ISSUES. THERE ARE 5 PAGES OF COMPLAINTS ON CAR COMPLAINTS.COM. THIS IS SO UPSETTING TO ME SINCE I COULD HAVE BEEN IN A SERIOUS CRASH WHEN MY RENEGADE STALLED ON THE HIGHWAY WHILE IN MOTION. WHY WASN'T THERE A RECALL??
