When i am driving my 2017 jeep renegade, which has an automatic transmission, the car will occasionally stall while the car is moving. a message will show on the dash that says 'shift vehicle to park' or something along those lines. i will go from driving normally, to having 0 rpms while i'm still moving. i turn the car off. i wait a minute. i try to start the car and it won't start, it just keeps cranking. eventually, and after many failed attempts and fear of ruining the starter, i manage to get the car started, but barely. when it does finally start, i wait a few seconds and am then able to drive again normally. this has happened more than several times now in the past year. it is also worth noting that i schedule my vehicle for regular oil changes as recommended, but i often get an oil pressure low warning, sometimes right before the vehicle stalls. i often have to add quarts of oil to my vehicle, even with regular oil changes. i drive an average of 12,000 miles a year and i do not abuse my vehicle. when researching my problem i came across two remarkably similar issues in other 2017 jeep renegades. these two recalls do not show up when i check my vehicle's vin against active recalls. it seems like more than a coincidence and i am asking that you broaden your scope for this issue in jeep renegades, because i or my family could be in danger while driving.
My son was driving home - city street - it was snowing and icy - the car stalled out and he swerved to the right jumped the curb and ran into a pole and tree.*dt*tp i have read several complaints for this vehicle in stalling out as well as recalls. the issue is supposedly repaired but it comes back doing the same thing. due to this accident this has caused us to have body work to be done as well as other issues. the most important issue is my son could have been killed.*jb *dt*tp
Started having problems with the car shifting very hard at random times and at various speeds while driving. dealer said there was no problem the first time we had it inspected and could not reproduce it at the shop. we continued to have these problems and started to hear our valves knocking so we checked to oil. the oil was two quarts low and barely on the dip stick. we were only midway through oil change and we only service our car at the dealer. we took car to dealer and they said that using a quart of oil every 2000 miles is normal. it may be normal for this car but it is not normal for any car we have ever owned. it is unacceptable that they did not inform us at oil changes that we were having trouble maintaining our oil levels. this would eventually cause our car engine to fail and create a safety hazard while driving as the engine could turn off from lack of oil. this is unacceptable for jeep to keep this manufacturing defect a secret because the research i have done has shown that this is a systemic problem with this vehicle.
Transmission keeps skipping every 30mph increment. now my car out of nowhere shuts off. it's happened now 3 times in a matter of a week. i will be driving and it doesn't let me accelerate and it asks me to put the car in park and turn it back on. when i try turning it back on it takes 3 times before i can start it back up.
Loss of power when driving for a few seconds.took it to the shop 3 times the 3 times came back the same.
Auto trans, periodically on same trip, coasting down speed, clicking noise @28mph mostly but other speeds does it too. had to dealer yesterday, reprogrammed module transmission control (tcm) and drive train control module (dtcm) started around 17000 miles (current mileage 19,500). took short drive today, and 1 click at 25mph while stopping at stop sign. back to work tomorrow and i will start noting the clicks.
I have had my car just under 2 year, purchased new. when purchasing the car i asked if they would install a remote start and was told to just take it to car toys. we did almost a year later. we are at 1 yr 10 mths and just over 26,00 miles. just recently the car stated stalling in the middle of traffic. i would have to put it in park to be able to start going again and then it lags to get going and quits shifting. the check engine light comes on and stays on. sometimes it flashes though several errors, too fast to read them all. i have had the car in to the original dealer 3 times and another dealer once. i was told it needed a computer update, the wiring harness needed fixed and other things. they said it was fixed the first3 times. this last time they are telling me it is the after market starter, they think. they cannot guarantee it will fix the problem but now they are saying nothing is under warranty. the after market starter has been on there 11 months without issue. the first time this happened was 9/26.19. the current date is 11/13/19. this is a safety issue. most times i have small children but have been luck to be by myself each time the car has stalled.
The vehicle loses power while driving. slows down as the gas peddle is depressed then abruptly begins to speed back up. the transmission also jerks sometimes while increasing or decreasing speed. while driving on the highway.
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
Gas pedal/acceleration will not engage when vehicle is in reverse, in a certain circumstance. this happens every time after i first start the vehicle, place it in reverse, and coast/roll backwards (out of my driveway, into the road, into traffic). slamming my foot on the gas pedal results in no acceleration, so i just roll slowly into the road. vehicle will accelerate normally after i then shift to drive. not being able to quickly accelerate in reverse when leaving for work every morning is an obvious safety concern. i took this to my dealership, and they were able to replicate the issue. they then tested this issue on 2016 renegade, 2017 renegade, and 2018 renegade. the 2016 and 2017 renegades had this same issue. the 2018 renegade reportedly did not have this issue. my dealership spoke with a jeep engineer that has investigated this issue before, and tried replacing the entire transmission system as a solution. that didn't fix the issue, so the engineer claims that it's "working as designed." clearly it's designed unsafely. i have included my dealership's notes indicating that they were able to reproduce the issue and my (and other) renegades. and that they ended up diagnosing this as "issue is normal no problem found."
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.
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
Jerking/lunging of car during acceleration up hill or going down hill or sometimes taking off from a complete stop
Tl* the contact owns a 2017 jeep renegade. when the contact attempted to start the vehicle, it shook and the engine seemed to rev on its own. after some time, the vehicle adjusted itself and operated normally. there were no warning indicators illuminated. the vehicle was not diagnosed or repaired. the dealer and manufacturer were not notified. the vehicle was included in an unknown recall. the failure mileage was 25,000. the vin was invalid.
I purchased my 2017 jeep renegade brand new at the end of january 2018. i was told to bring my car in at 5000 miles for an oil change. right before my oil change was due, while driving in a parking lot, i made a turn and saw a low engine pressure light and then my engine turned off while driving. my husband & i met with the jeep dealer and the shop manager said the engine was just "breaking in" and used up the oil. this wasn't something we had heard of before. they did an oil consumption test and after all that was done, they said it was fine and it wouldn't happen again. i've taken my car in like clock-work to have the oil changed. this week, with still 300 miles to go until my next oil change, my low oil pressure light came on and my car turned off while driving down a hill on a busy main road. the dealership is telling me again "this car just uses oil". they confirmed i was 2.5 quarts low. we have 2 renegades in the family, my daughter's 2015 renegade that we bought in 2017 with only 2500 miles on it doesn't have this problem. i am now getting a second oil consumption test run. this is dangerous and scary. i see there was a recall on 2017 jeep renegades for a cracked oil pump issue. my car is not included in that yet it has the same symptoms. i bought a brand new car so that i wouldn't have "used car" issues. this is unacceptable and i'm getting nervous my car will just turn off and i will be in an accident the next time as i've been lucky so far.
After about one & 1/2 yrs from buying jeep...brand new, it started shifting gears really hard. this seems to occur at 29-32 mph, it feels like the transmission is slipping and the jeep will jerk very hard.
My 2017 jeep renegade 4x4 sport is jerking possibly the transmission could be slipping. this occurs at approximately 20mph and it also occurs when idling.
I bought my jeep with 17miles on it. since i have had it i have had many reacurring problems. 1st around the 8000 mile mark my jeep started skipping gears like when you shift a old ten speed bike. brought it to dealership it took a week or so and got it back the had to reprogram the shifting module?? then 2nd as i was driving my car it would just lose power and shut off, not fun when driving on the highway going 60mph. i called the dealer they said they didn't know why it did this. a few day later i was crossing a intersection and it did it again. and i almost got hit by a semi truck. this was at about 30000 miles. when i brought it to the dealership they said i had a oil problem. and that is why. they replaced top end of my engine?? well what about the bottom? now i'm at 50000 and all the problems that i had are happening again it is bucking when shifting. randomly shutting off. i'm feed up. and my car isn't covered under a warranty any more. as of now i have a beautiful large car payment on a car that is two years old that i don't think is going to last as long and my payments. i'm scared to drive it. i'm scared to drive my daughter around in it.
At approximately 31,500 miles transmission is making a loud clunk sound and jars the vehicle. so loud and hard it startles the passengers. i believe it is happening between 20-30 mph and when i remove accelerator and begin to coast. it seems to be when i coast downhill. no warning lights display on the dash. seems to only happen at low speeds. possibly has occurred 4 times before taking to dealership the first time. took vehicle to purchasing dealership march 2019. problem still occurring the same day i picked up. has happened 3 more times in 2 days. rescheduled with purchasing dealership 2nd attempt to repair. i am the original owner - purchased april 2017. one driver. issue is new and started at approx 31,500 miles in march 2019.
I purchased this car new 0 miles since the first month, this automobile has had service after service, the first two months lighter wouldn't work, next month dealership had car for over a week would not start at all= new electrical panel, a few months later seat belts wont lock on back seat, next,hood wont open, then, needed new latch, now the car is 16 months old now hesitates to drive, who can go thought this with a car that is financed thought chrysler .i'm at the point i may just let them have it, im tired of the foolishness.
I bought 2017 jeep renegade 1/2018. first 6-9 months ran good no issues noticed. when i reached approx. 28k miles, the jeep started severe hard shifting with a clunk & car jerk anytime i was driving in speed range of 27-32 mph. over next 5 mos. 10/2018'feb/mar 2019, i took my jeep to same dealer purchased/serviced 5 different times. each time same complaint of hard shift 27-32mph. this sporadically happens with no rhyme or reason to when only that it occurs during that speed range. i could be accelerating or coasting in town to decelerate and will happen. i filed a formal complaint to jeep chryselr 1/2019 after 3rd dealer service visit not resolved. dealer every time said all normal, no transmission issues. now both dealer & jeep insist hard shifting is normal claiming it is an electronic transmission that has a 'clutch' engagement around that speed and normal to feel when it engages or disengages. both dealer & jeep claim this is also common and more noticeable when it reaches colder weather but refuse to acknowledge any issues. i advised my jeep didn't do this first few months when bought new during winter season jan 2018, but still i am told by both dealer & jeep that this is normal. i still have the problem today and no one has resolved. now they just say nothing they can do. i even stopped driving distances may-july afraid to go over my 36k warranty. i am getting close to my 36k warranty exp. now and asked for one last time to please figure out the hard shifting issues before something happens. i won't even let my 3 teen driving children behind wheel of the jeep for fear that the hard shift & car jerks would potentially cause them to have an accident. i owe too much for trade-in value so am stuck with a new jeep that has insane shifting issues and jeep will not acknowledge, take ownership, or recall to fix even after multiple consumer reviews show same issue
My 2017 renegade jeep is stalling at stop lights, stop signs, or as i accelerate to leave a stop light or stop sign. i almost got hit by a 18 wheeler truck 2 weeks ago because the jeep stalled and i could not move out of the truck's way. my jeep also accelerates, or loses power. it is rattling since 3 months after i bought it. it has a problem with massive oil consumption and i am afraid i may have a fire. i have alerted russell westbrook jeep dealership where i bought it 9/10/2017. these problems have gotten worse since 3/01/2019. *js
My renegade has repeatedly stalled out while driving. unfortunately this last time resulted in a minor accident. the jeep has less 16k miles on it. i have notified fca but until it is resolved i have no vehicle.*dt consumer stated he had a vehicle control issue while making a turn engine stalled and hit a guardrail. vehicle had stalled twice previously and 8 days after the accident. consumer stated manufacture and dealer were not contacted.*jb
Tl* the contact owns a 2017 jeep renegade. while driving various speeds, the vehicle would not accelerate past 35 mph. when the contact pulled over and restarted the vehicle, the check engine and oil warning indicators illuminated. the contact scheduled a diagnostic appointment with normandin chrysler jeep dodge ram fiat (900 capitol expressway auto mall, san jose, ca 95136, (408) 266-9500). the vehicle was not repaired. the manufacturer was made aware of the failure. the failure mileage was 39,602.
We bought a 2017 jeep renegade in september 2017. our renegade has a very hard shift problem and makes a loud clunk sound around the 25-30mph range...it hits so hard that it feels like someone hit you in the back of the car while driving. we had our car serviced 3 times at the dealership for this problem and it still continues. when we went back for the 3rd time on may 24th, the service advisor told us that it wasn't throwing any codes so they didn't know what to do to fix it. he also informed us that this was a big problem with the renegades and all they could do was to flash a software update even though he knows it will not fix the problem. another tech said "is your car still under warranty?" we said yes, it only has 32,000 miles on it. he said to the other tech, we should just put a whole new transmission in the thing. the other tech said, if we do that, it will just be putting the same kind of transmission back in it (9 speed transmission) which would eventually have the same problem. we were told that most people just want to try to trade the car in for something else. the service tech advised us to talk with a sales person. so while talking with the sales person, she tried to get us into a certified used car. we bought a new car for a reason, to not end up with some else's problems with a used car. then we ask to speak to the manager. he told us that any car he put us in would just have the same transmission and possibly the same problems. the manager actually told us that we would just be better off trading it in at another dealership. we went to the subaru dealership to speak with them about trading it in and they only wanted to offer us a trade in value of $10,000 when we still owe $15,000. it just doesn't seem fair that no one at the jeep dealership is willing to help its customers when they clearly know they have sold many customers faulty vehicles.
My car just about stalled but it kept going. but then it got stuck in third gear. i drive all the way to the dealership. they said they never heard bout this problem. well i just bought the vehicle in 2018 february.
Tl* the contact owns a 2017 jeep renegade. while driving 35 mph, the contact shifted gears and the transmission seized. shortly after, the vehicle stalled and "shift to desired gear" appeared on the instrument panel. the vehicle was to be towed to ontario chrysler jeep dodge (1202 auto center dr, ontario, ca 91761, (909) 906-7097) for diagnostic testing. when the contact took the vehicle to the same dealer in the past, he was informed that there were no failures. the manufacturer was not made aware of the failure. the failure mileage was 19,355.
At approximately 23,000 miles, the check engine oil light briefly flashed on once when taking a sharp turn (left or right). this occurred twice. the third time was when pulling out of a parking lot at standard speed (not a fast acceleration) but the engine completely turned off. i was able to to restart the engine with no delay and no warning lights on dash. 1/10th of a mile i was entering the interstate (same day) and the engine completely turned off again - almost causing a rear-end collision. again, the car restart without delay and no warning lights. i pulled the car to the shoulder of road and called the dealership. i explained details and said the only other experience i had was it was time to change the oil. the dealership said change your oil and that should fix the problem. ??really?? i was confused of why & how but i'm no mechanic and i drove it directly to valvoline and it corrected the problem. i am deeply concerned about stalls with my 3 children in the car daily. now i am experience transmission issues at 31,500 miles. i will supply details is a separate report.
Engine shuts off when turning. at approximately 23,000 miles october 2018, dash message briefly illuminated "check engine oil" only one time (then turn off) when in a sharp turn (left and right directions). this happened 3 different times. the 4th time, the engine complete shut off in the middle of the turn. i was leaving my work parking lot and decided to drive toward the dealership. the engine turned on without hesitation and no warning on dash. 1/10th mile from work, the engine turned off again in a turn, almost causing a rear-end collision. i pulled to the shoulder and called the purchasing dealership to explain and asked if i can drive to them. i explained the only issue was this and it was time to change oi. the technician said that changing the oil will resolve the problem. it did. it is now match 2019 and the vehicle has not shut off since october. i am not thrilled about this "so called" safety feature. save the engine by shutting off.... but put passengers in danger. not happy - especially since i am a single mom of 3.
Hood opens without me opening it. it happened 3 times so far. one time it happened on the parkway but it has the safety so it doesn't swing up. the shifting shifted so hard it made a clucken noise i thought the transmission went. that happened twice. the car only has 20,000 miles and the trans sounds like it's starting to go. i was driving both times.
Vehicle cuts off randomly while driving, has been taken lake keowee dodge for software update, but continues to have same issue. this issue happened about 3 months ago and cut off 5 times in one day on 8\10\18. this is extremely dangerous and there are no recalls as of yet.
On the highway when transmission wouldn't engage and the jeep started shaking. came to a stop, shifted to manual and it needed high rpm's to get it moving. it finally got moving and had to use manual get it off the highway. was at the dealer a few months earlier dealing with the transmission not engaging. dealer said it was a software issue. dealer now says it's not transmission but engine problems. thankful to be alive.
Took my car to the dealer twice, first they told me it was my new tires. this time they told me it a rear drive axle module chrysler know about it and trying to find a fix.i have had to deal with this noise problem for over a year, with them looking at me like i don't know what i'm talking about.the noise gets louder and louder the faster i go. have not been able to go on the freeway without sounding like my tires are going to fall off. i had to replace my tires because the rear ones wore out in the middle of the tread on both rear tires could this be because of the problem?
Car was in motion on a city street heading straight when it came to a complete stop. various messages have been displayed the most previous times saying "to shift vehicle must be stopped" i wasn't trying to shift? no codes ever being shown are the same. all issues cause the car to completely stop. this is extremely dangerous on the roads ofcourse. it's already had an update to the system the dealership said was needed. now back to doing the same thing so it's currently at the dealership again. just hit 20k miles. all oil changes have been made on time as the jeep has all warranties the chysler dodge jeep dealership offered. can contact dealership for more detail. this has been ongoing since january 2018
On june 11th, 2 days after purchasing the car with just under 7000 miles we noticed the battery light on which disappeared about 10 minutes after driving it. today, june 20th, while driving on florida's turnpike at 72mph warning light came on, there was a beeping sound and the car seemed to lose power very briefly as if it was going to turn off. this could be a safety hazard especially on an interstate. i am also noticing sluggish acceleration at times.
Transmission and engine problems, car stalling. almost in bad car accident due to this issue, after looking at reviews im not the only one with issue. not a happy customer
The vehicle transmission was stuck in neutral and could not be shifted to any other position. this occurred after backing the vehicle up a few feet and then trying to shift from reverse into drive. there is no known procedure for shutting off the engine with the shifter in any position other than park. because of this, the vehicle could not be moved and the engine could not be shut off. the only good part of this was that it was in neutral - i can't imagine what could have happened of the transmission had gotten stuck in reverse or drive.
While driving in any condition (highway, street) the transmission slips, sometimes violently. it feels like i have been rear ended it slips so bad. this is a frequent occurrence. when taken to the dealer, they have placed the jeep on their diagnostic computer and said nothing is wrong. the jeep has just over 22,000 miles. this has been going on since about 15,000 miles. secondarily, sometimes the cruise control fails to engage or reengage.
Tl* the contact owns a 2017 jeep renegade. while driving various speeds, the transmission slipped and caused the vehicle to jerk violently. the contact mentioned that the failure occurred periodically. the vehicle was taken to jim browne chrysler jeep dodge ram tampa bay (10909 n florida ave, tampa, fl 33612, (813) 280-5069), but the cause of the failure could not be determined. the vehicle was not repaired. the manufacturer was made aware of the failure and the contact was provided a case number. the failure mileage was 9,000.
Extreme hesitation upon acceleration and nearly stopping while trying to enter a freeway, twice. key fob issues, auto start issues, radio and blue tooth issues, tire pressure gauge reading issues. first service visit i was told it was just in need of a computer rest. second visit they said they found nothing wrong with it. third visit they initially said it needed a software upgrade until i insisted it was serious and contacted corporate. not only was i treated poorly but i was blocked from leaving a review. it was mentioned that engineers currently know there is an issue but are waiting until second quarter to publish it. i believe this is extremely negligent because it isn't just a faulty sensor light, the entire vehicle nearly dies while driving on a freeway, creating a risk for a fatal accident. i demanded records of all that has been done to this brand new auto, since issues first arose on 12/9/1027. from 12/9/2017-3/38/2018, i have had my car at the service center three times. and i just found the safety recall online, i have not been notified by jeep or the dealership yet as to this recall pertaining to faulty sensor alerts. i am unable to select from the above list but "wheels' and "elec stability control" were also affected.
As driving out of the dealership i could hear the brakes squeaking. my first thought was since it was a brand new car, maybe the brakes need to be broken in. although, now having over 20k miles, the brake squeak has gotten worse over time causing my rotors to become damaged with deep grooves. the car also jerks when shifting from 2nd to 3rd. it is embarrassing, especially when passengers in the vehicle, for my brand new, barely a year old, car to be jerking so roughly. if you are experiencing this same problem or something similar, please speak up so this problem can be resolved. there are others with the same complaint but have not spoken up, now is the time. dont wait!
While in motion, the transmission clunks randomly into a gear or, and sometimes miss shifts. when in sport mode, transmission won't shift whether shifted up or down leaving the car at speed dangerous in traffic.
I decided to start the vehicle without using remote start due to extreme cold climate so i could warm it longer than remote start will allow. let it run for about 45 minutes and go to drive off and get up to 25-30mph and it stalled and made an extremely loud noise and rough vibration that made it feel like the whole engine or transmission fell out of the vehicle. all of the lights lit up in the dashboard and i had to struggle to steer it off the street by coasting it. proceeded to start it but wouldn't budge for a good 5-10 min until it finally started back up. immediately took it to the dealership and they connected the diagnostic tool to it and said nothing was showing up and there was nothing they could do about it. about a month later, it happened again the exact same way, took it to the dealership and this time they said every possible error code came up and were baffled. they wanted us to leave there at the dealership for 2 weeks before they could get to it and did not offer a loaner vehicle, we had to tell them that we needed it or a loaner for commute and so we had to keep it, they finally got to it and found out it was the ecm module, something to do with the drivetrain, they replaced it and it hasn't occurred again. since then, we have noticed more and more that the transmission has been shifting very hard making popping noises and jerking. we finally decided that something wasnt right and took it to a different dealership with a couple other things that have gone wrong with the car. we had to take it twice for them to figure out what we were talking about with the transmission. it is now scheduled for a total transmission replacement mid august, and i think it was caused by ecm module issue we had to deal with for a few months before it was taken care of. i am extremely disappointed in making a new car purchase because of all the issues we have had with it.
First breakdown check engine light and air bags light came on then the engine locked up and i could not switch gears and could not accelerate. second break down emergency break locked up and would not release and check engine light and check airbags came on again. third breakdown emergency break locked up and would not release again and the check engine light and air bags light came on again and could not switch gears. fourth breakdown would not start had to be towed turns out battery needed to be replaced. fifth breakdown engine stalled had to pull over and restart the car. sixth breakdown remote start the car did not start up and then would not start manually. seventh breakdown engine stalled again had to be towed would not start backup. 8th breakdown jeep was shifting really hard took to delaership now has to have transmission replaced. this car is a year and a half old and has had all these problems i just found out that jeeps that are 2017 and 2018 have recalls this vehicle has the electrical problem and the boby is falling apart. all of this has affected the gas mileage. all these break down were city streets and highway.
The vehicle shuts off completely while driving if engine oil sensor detects low oil in engine. this happens without warning no matter where you driving ie (highway or local roads).
My vehicle has been shifting hard when taking off from stop or driving along and it happens it races when driving and then stalls it want go sometimes. its been to two dealership and worked on it still is not working. it's in the shop again. i don't want this vehicle anymore. i need to be safe. it almost got me hurt two times. i need it replaced. i am disabled. i wish this didn't happen i need a vehicle that want be disabled. let me know asap. thank you.

The 9-speed transmission causes the vehicle to lunge forward causing the vehicle to be unsafe. i would have rear end a dodge ram truck at a stop light; if my foot was not firmly on the brake. the lunging forward, and hard shifting happens randomly primarily on the downshifting, and when it's cold out. other issues: when using the washer solvent fluid the vapors come back through the cabin, making the cabin air toxic to breath. the front driver side rotor and brake pad had to be changed; because they were deemed defective due to finding metal debris in the brake pad at about 3,100 miles when i reported the noise at the first oil change. electrical: randomly the push start will not work, turn signal turning right will not work, and head lights would not automatically come on. this 2017 jeep renegade latitude 2.4l has less than 6,000 miles. the transmission, washer solvent, and brakes started before the first oil change at 3,118 miles; however, the washer solvent was not report until later when i found out it is toxic, and i only used it about 3-times, and turned the air off each time. all deemed unable to duplicate except for one time or normal for the washer solvent issue.
Tl* the contact owns a 2017 jeep renegade. while driving various speeds, the vehicle would not immediately respond when depressing the accelerator pedal. the vehicle was taken to windward chrysler (46177 kahuhipa st, kaneohe, hi) to be diagnosed, but no failure was found. the dealer described the matter as normal driving characteristics of the vehicle. the manufacturer was notified of the failure. the failure mileage was 10.
On 4 occasions now since owning my jeep renegade the vehicle will jerk, check enhine light comes on, and the vehicle will lock in 3rd gear. i try to switch to manual shift and will not shift. i purchased this vehicle with 50 miles, and now over 28,000 miles with reoccurring problems. on instance the vehicle light warning comes on indicating all of the lights are out in the vehicle, and the light build indicator will remain for a short period of time, and cut off. the dealership has replaced the transmission computer on the first instance, replaced the bsm on the second occasion, and since then 2 software updates. this vehicle is defective in some way and fca needs to address these ongoing issues that are a huge safety concern.
Tl* the contact owns a 2017 jeep renegade. while turning into an intersection at 5 mph, the vehicle stalled without warning. the vehicle started back up and was driven to the dealer (reedman toll chrysler dodge jeep ram, 140 old york rd, jenkintown, pa 19046). it was diagnosed as a safety precaution for the vehicle when the oil was low. the vehicle was not repaired. the manufacturer was notified of the failure. the vin was unknown. the failure mileage was 5,100.
