Problem 12 of 12: Around 90K, still replacing headlights almost monthly, and now another idiot light comes on the dash telling me that my back up light is out. I immediately purchase the bulb, but when I go to fix it, all the rear lights are functioning. Screw it! Let the idiot light on the dash shine its little ass off. AGAIN, UGH!!! I hate this car! I hate the lazy asses who apparently built it on a Friday wanting to go home early! I hate Victorville Motors for lying to me about the warranty! I hate FIAT/JEEP/CHRYSLER Corporation for not doing anything about this crappy electrical design flaw! May they all be issued a 2015 Renegade as their sole vehicle and have to deal with all this crap themselves! To me, that is fate worse than death!

By the love of all that is holy, in whatever you believe in, if you are reading this - AVOID THIS CAR LIKE A PLAGUE! So among ALL the problems this car has this is just one of them.
Electrical problems out the A** on this car among everything else. At random one morning my reverse light indicator went off. I took it to the auto shop and replaced it. The next day it went off again. I knew the light wasn't popped - I gave it a good wack on the side reflector and the light kicked on. I figured the bulb was loose, so I tightened it. The problem continues. I have to smack my reverse light every morning for it to turn on. Dealer recommended a new socket pig tail and wanted an outrageous amount for parts and repairs, of course, so for now it stays broken.
