My husband and i both just bought 2015 jeeps with their 9-speed automatic transmissions. these cars are extremely dangerous and i am scared to drive...
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 ...
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
While letting off the gas to slow down to either a stop or around a curve; the car idles all the way down and dies, the dashboard flashes a message saying 'vehicle must be in park to switch gears'. when i place the vehicle in park it then tells me to push the brake and the start button; when i do the car 'whines' and acts like it's having a hard time starting back up; when it does finally turn over it idles high until i put the car in gear making it jump.
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 ...
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.
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.
Had an oil change around 2 months before the issue occured. when pulling out of my drive way the jeep stopped and shut off. upon inspection i was low on oil. after adding 3 quarts of oil i found where other people online had similar issues with specifically the 2018 jeep renegade 2.4 liter motor consuming copious amounts of oil. others had they're renegades stop while driving down the highway but lucky i was lucky enough to be in my driveway. i have always had an oil change on time and through jeep as well. i also don't understand how they passed and emissions test while the motor burns that much oil.
I am contacting you due to due to baxter service rep paul at baxter chrysler dodge jeep ram dealer refusal to repair recalls for my jeep renegade. the recalls that generate from my insurance company allstate are indeed recalls my vehicle needs based on performance issues. he informed me that they're not recalls, and when i said allstate made them up, he said 'yeah'! the information for the 4 recalls are from data.gov. the service department at baxter says they are only going to repair the recall (for engine cooling fan) that chrysler website shows! please advise &/or assist to resolve this issue! i have reported to the assistant service mgr justin sunquist and bbb as well. thanks
