I have a hard time putting gas in the car though it was the pump but it's everywhere i go and it eats up a lot of gas. the electrical messed up sometimes it won't start i got a new battery and everything but the service people said it has to be electrical my keys never work i have to manually use key and lock the door from inside my gears the engine ideals high and car jerks sometimes when i'm taking off

The headlights were on too long while the engine was off causing a dead battery. no big deal i thought... i jumpstart the car per owners manual instructions (it has a complex battery so even though i've jump started many different vehicles i wanted to make sure there weren't special procedures, it ended up being pretty standard). when it died it was in a garage so i had to manually unlock the gear selector to put the car into neutral to push it into position for a jump connection. i put the car in park and let the battery charge up a while. once the car charged up enough, it started right up. at this point i thought i was in the clear, that's when the service engine light and service transmission light came on. the engine is running fine, transmission was fine before the battery died. not only that, but i could not move the vehicle. it was locked into park. i was blocking the road in my neighborhood while i was manually unlocking the gear selector, i finally get the car to shift into drive and tried to accelerate. only the engine would rev, no movement. try to ...

While driving my radio and headlights will start to surge then immediately after, the steering wheel will jerk out of my hands preventing me from turning the wheel in any direction (locks up). if i don't immediately park the car, the car will shut off on then a bunch of warnings will pop up on the dashboard then dynamic power steering warning with flash. i have to wait 10 minutes at least before being able to restart the car. this has happened every single time i drive the car. this has happened multiple times at red lights, turning into traffic, on the highway going 75mph and/or 30mph.

The car stalls out while driving on several occasions i have had to completely stop turn my car off pump the gas and then restart. the first three month of the purchase i had to have it towed back to the dealership because the car stopped completely and wouldn't not start again no matter how long it was being jumped off . i called the tow truck who used special jump box and he still couldn't get it to crank. now here it is a less than a year later and the same issue again.

The vehicle will not start at random times. it finally does start again and then throws computer errors. it has also shut down numerous times while i was driving down the road. some of these instances were while i was driving the vehicle and others were after the vehicle was shut off for a short amount of time.

When turning on car all warning lights came on and then each one started flickering one by one. then my transmission light and warning message came on. car would start but locked itself and couldn't shift gears . i tried unlocking it and shifted to reverse it would not accelerate and would get stuck in that gear so had to manually unlock and shift to drive and couldn't accelerate. couldn't turned it off gear shift would lock itself. happened while heading back home. so i took it to the dealership and saw the recall for transmission. they ended up doing something else that i didn't say yes to now they are charging me for it and while my car was getting repaired. they gave me a loaner car, i get in car accident in their loaner car i had insurance but only liability. dealership won't give my car back until i pay in cash a deductible of 2,500 and plus repairs i didn't agree to.

2015 jeep renegade limited 4x4 has stalled while driving on 3 separate occasions since purchasing it used from dealership in january 2019. it stalls while in stop and go traffic without any warning. i have to put in park, push the start button to turn it off, and then push the button again with foot on break to start it again. thankfully this has only happened while driving slowly (10-15 mph) in a line of cars towards a stop sign however this is extremely unsafe!

Takata recall. my key keep getting stuck in ignition and my jeep will not go into any gear. it will sometime crank, but it take forever to get the key out. my jeep is still new and it is my own means of transportation. it is at 40 thousands mile. .no matter what i do i can not get it to leave out of park.

I got up to get ready to go to choir rehearsal my jeep would not crank, and the key was stuck in the switch, it took almost 30 minutes to get the key out, finally the jeep cranked but i could not get the gear to go into reverse, drive or nothing, and on the dash board where it tells you how many miles you have on the automobile it was blinking and also on the dash board it say service transmission.. i have read on your site as i was searching to find out why this is happening, so many of these jeep seem to do this when they reach 40 thousand miles. i am grateful that i was not on the road because the day before this happen the jeep seem to have lost speed ifor a brief moment, this is very dangerous something need to be done about this.

The key get stuck in the ignition. this happens more frequently when it is warm out.
