2018 Jeep Renegade Power Train

My Jeep has stalled while driving 3 times. It has been happening about once each year. The center console no long works. The screen just turned off one day and has never turned back on. Now it will not start. At first the dash turned on with all lights, would not start would not turn off break locked. Then the dash started flashing and the slowly diming until it no longer work. Then the RPM and MPH startes going up and down then the car died off. There is a recall for Jeep renegade that seems to reflect what it happening but the vin search states no recalls. I now only now don't have a car that I'm still paying on but someone could have been hurt. When this initially started I did check for recalls, and as I just did again. I can't get it anywhere to be looked at.

I was driving in traffic and it was bumper to bumper. I had to keep going into first, move a little then stop for several miles. Coming out of the [XXX], heading up the hill, I started to smell burning, the clutch then pinned to the floor and I was stuck in first gear, and the vehicle shut off, not overheating warning, nothing. I was able to start the vehicle after a few moments and then got it t the shoulder, had it towed and I was told the clutch pressure plate was fractured and a whole new transmission would need installed if the flywheel isn't damaged. It wont be serviced until March 28th or 29th and then I will know if a $2500 dollar fix turns into a $5000.00 dollar fix. 54 thousand miles on this and it drove fine in traffic like this before and had no issues with it shifting or anything until this day. They say there is a recall on the Renegade specifically NHTSA20V-124 involving renegades with 6 speed manual transmissions. I couldn't get any help from Chrysler, the recall information center but this information is out on the web. Next is lemon law attorney. INFORMATION REDACTED PURSUANT TO THE FREEDOM OF INFORMATION ACT (FOIA), 5 U.S.C. 552(B)(6)

The contact owns a 2018 Jeep Renegade. The contact stated that while driving at an undisclosed speed, the vehicle stalled. The vehicle was towed to the dealer where it was diagnosed with a ground failure in the transmission. The dealer cleaned the throttle bottle and fuel injection system, removed the connector, and repositioned the seal to allow proper connection. The manufacturer was not made aware of the failure. The contact related the failure to NHTSA Campaign Number: 18V524000 (Electrical System) however, the VIN was not included in the recall. The failure mileage was approximately 68,000.

This has occurred 3 times in last 10 days. While making a right turn at about 15 miles per hour the D light starts flashing, a dash message flashes that the car must be in park to shift gears, and the car stalls to roll to complete stop with 100-150 feet. It takes a moment to get the car started up again. This is scary as someone turning the corner behind me could slam into me. Luckily this was after rush hour and traffic was light. Called dealership and they have no record of this recall. 48,000 miles on 2018 jeep renegade.

THE TRANSMISSION SKIPS GEARS AROUND 80-90MPH. IT JERKS AND THE GEARBOX LIGHT COMES ON. LIGHT ONLY GOES ON WHILE DRIVING. CHECK ENGINE LIGHT ACCOMPANIES THE TRANSMISSION LIGHT. IT DOES IT ON THE HIGHWAY.

JAN. 5 2020: SERVICE ENGINE APPEARED WHILE DRIVING. I DROVE 2 MILES FROM WORK TO HOME AND MY JEEP WOULD NOT ACCELERATE UP MY ANGLED DRIVEWAY. I WAS PRESSING THE ACCELERATOR BUT THE VEHICLE WAS SLOWLY GOING BACKWARD. I COASTED BACKWARD TO A LEVEL AREA AND PUT THE VEHICLE IN PARK. I PUT IT IN DRIVE AND THEN WAS ABLE TO CLIMB MY DRIVEWAY AS NORMAL. JEEP WAS NOTIFIED. OBD CODE WAS U0402 (IMPLAUSIBLE DATA RECEIVED FROM TCM) AND (P1DD2 TORQUE REQUEST SIGNAL FROM TCM DENIED). JEEP AND CHRYSTLER STATE THERE ARE NO RECALLS AT THIS TIME.

WHILE DRIVING MY VEHICLE IS SHUTTING OFF. IT HAS SHUT OFF ON THE HIGHWAY AND IN THE CITY. ALMOST CAUSING CRASHES. I WOULD LITERALLY JUST BE DRIVING AND THE ENGINE WILL SHUT OFF. I HAD TO GET TOWED TODAY

DID NOT DRIVE IT SATURDAY, DROVE IT SUNDAY AT 11:30 AT NIGHT AND THAT'S WHEN IT HAPPENED. I HAD NO WARNING OF ANY CLUTCH ISSUES PREVIOUSLY. *TR

PURCHASED NEW ON 3/19/19. ON 3/25/19, WITH 108 MILES ON IT, THE TRANSMISSION LOCKED UP WHILE IN MOTION, IN TRAFFIC ON A VERY BUSY HIGHWAY. WAS TOWED TO DEALER, WHO 8 DAYS LATER SAID TRANSMISSION MODULE WAS FAULTY, REPLACED, RETURNED TO ME 4/1/19. 4/6/19 SAME SCENARIO REPEATED, HOWEVER THIS TIME IN A PARKING LOT. AGAIN TOWED TO DEALER. THE FIRST TIME AN EXTREMELY FRIGHTENING EXPERIENCE! I STRONGLY SUGGEST A RECALL!!

I PURCHASED THE CAR LESS THAN 2 MONTHS AGO AND IT SEEMS THAT THE FIRST FOUR GEARS SOMETIMES MAKES THE CAR LUNGE WHEN THEY SHIFT UP. I CONTACTED THE JEEP DEALER I BOUGHT IT FROM AND I WAS INFORMED THEY COULDN'T DO ANYTHING BECAUSE THERE WEREN'T ANY WARNING LIGHTS ON THE DASH SHOWING UP. IT HAPPENS SOMETIMES WHEN IM ACCELERATING BOTH FAST AND SLOW.
