MY 6 WEEK OLD JEEP RENEGADE WON'T START. I INSERTED MY KEY INTO THE IGNITION, I TURNED AND BRIEFLY THE ELECTRICITY WENT ON BUT THE ENGINE DIDN'T TURN. THEN I WENT TO TRY AGAIN AND EVERYTHING LOCKED UP. THE KEY WAS STUCK, THE GEAR SHIFT WAS LOCKED AND WOULDN'T MOVE, AND THE VEHICLE WOULD NOT TURN ON. FINALLY GOT THE KEY OUT BUT WHEN YOU PUT IT BACK IN, YOU CANNOT TURN THE KEY. NOTHING WORKS, IT IS COMPLETELY SHUT DOWN. IT APPEARS AS THOUGH THE LOCK CYLINDER MAY BE BROKEN. VERY PISSED OFF.

PURCHASED VEHICLE IN JULY 2015, WITH 12 MILES ON THE ODOMETER. VEHICLE DIED WHILE IN MOTION AT APPROXIMATELY 12 MPH ON MAY 2016. HAD FULL ELECTRICAL POWER, BUT ENGINE WOULD NOT TURN OVER AND IGNITION DID NOT EVEN MAKE "CLICK" NOISE. TOWED BY FCA 24H SERVICE TO THE CLOSEST DEALERSHIP (AND NOT THE ONE I BOUGHT IT FROM AND REQUESTED IT GO TO). AFTER 3 DAYS WAS TOLD THAT IT NEEDED OIL, OIL CHANGED WAS PERFORMED, AND THAT IT WAS FINE. OIL STARTED "DISAPPEARING" - NO LEAK, WASN'T BURNING. OIL PRESSURE LIGHT WOULD COME ON CONTINUOUSLY. CALLED FCA TO …

ONGOING ISSUE, BUT TODAY I GOT IN MY JEEP AND ONCE AGAIN MY VEHICLE IS SHOWING THE TRANSMISSION AND CHECK ENGINE LIGHTS, WHEN I ATTEMPT TO PUT IT IN GEAR IT GOES OUT OF GEAR AND INTO NEUTRAL.. ON TOP OF THAT I'VE BEEN HAVING ISSUES WHERE THE POWER STEERING LIGHT WILL COME ON WHILE I'M DRIVING. MAKING IT DIFFICULT TO TURN/ MAINTAIN VEHICLE CONTROL. I EXPERIENCED PROBLEMS SUCH AS THE CAR 'JUMPING HARD INTO GEAR' AS MY HUSBAND PUTS IT; ALONG WITH IT TAKING OFF REALLY FAST, IT'S ALSO BEEN SOUNDING REALLY LOUD AND SHAKING WHEN IT REACHES SPEEDS UPWA…

"TAKATA RECALL" AFTER STARTING THE VEHICLE FROM A PARKING SPOT AT THE VA, I SMELLED GAS, AND IT STALLED. AFTER STARTING SEVERAL MORE TIME, AND ONLY ABLE TO MAKE IT APPROXIMATELY SEVERAL FEET EACH TIME. THE VEHICLE FINALLY DIED, LEAVING A TRAIL OF GAS, AND A HUGE PUDDLE UNDERNEATH. IT WAS THE FUEL RETURN LINE WHERE THE PLASTIC CONNECTS TO METAL. THIS WAS VERY DANGEROUS.

At 58k miles my check engine light came on and it was determined that it was throwing the code 0456 for a small EVAP leak. I took my Renegade to the dealership for a smoke test and had told them there is sometimes a strong fuel smell when driving. The first smoke test they claimed they couldn't find a leak but noticed a strong fuel smell coming from the rear of the vehicle. They performed one more smoke test and still couldn't find leak. Scheduled another appointment, software update was performed and code was cleared. 2 days later check engine…

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2015 JEEP RENEGADE. WHILE DEPRESSING THE BRAKE PEDAL, A LOUD SQUEALING NOISE WAS PRESENT. THE VEHICLE WAS TAKEN TO THE DEALER ON SEVERAL OCCASIONS BEFORE THE FAILURE WAS REMEDIED. ALSO, WHILE DRIVING IN REVERSE, THE SHIFTER WOULD ERRONEOUSLY SWITCH TO NEUTRAL.

THE CAUSE OF THE FAILURES WAS NOT DIAGNOSED. THE VEHICLE WAS NOT REPAIRED. THE MANUFACTURER WAS NOTI…
