The 'Service Engine' light came on and the vehicle overheated 400 miles from home. The servicing Jeep dealer (Vision Jeep in Rochester, NY) stated the engine cooling fan failed, in the same manner as noted in Recall Campaign v54 for the cooling fan in 2015-2017 Jeep Renegades. My car is a 2016 Renegade, and the service manager was surprised my VIN was not included in the recall. He stated it failed in the same way as other recall repairs they did for the same model car, and was the same part that failed. I firmly believe it was a mistake that my VIN wasn't included, despite the model and year of my car being in the range of the cars for recall v54.

This car comes almost to a dead stop and stalls when accelerating. Its dangerous because it will stall right as I'm entering traffic and attempting to get up to the speed of traffic during a time when all other cars around me are also accelerating, it's happened since the first day I bought the Jeep I've already filed a complaint. These engines should be recalled.

- Angwin, CA, USA

Having to put oil in a month after an oil change. Renegade is driven 40 highway miles a day 5 times a week. Also the coolant light shoots up to hot suddenly then back down while idling in park.

- San Antonio, TX, USA

The car engine shuts down unexpectedly while driving. Bought the car from autonation 3 months ago. I noticed the oil low pressure just started to come with the shutdown. This is very dangerous if driving on the highway. This model needs to be recalled because I found hundreds of similar situations online.

When you first start driving the car after about 1 min the engine will lose power and shut off causing you to have to pull to the side of the road. It then takes several times to restart it before you can go.

- Massena, NY, USA

Vehicle shuts off while driving as well as taking turns. Just shuts off with no warning. After it shuts off the lightning bolt in parentheses (electronic throttle control system) comes on, then goes away. Car shows as still running, but won't move. Sometimes the low oil gauge comes on, but the vehicle is up to date with oil changes. Very unsafe for vehicle to just "stop moving" or "shut off" in the middle of driving, or in the middle of an intersection. This has happened on and off for about 4 months, but now it is daily.

Notice a change oil light started popping up although I did not need to change oil according to records I was not due to change oil until another three months, I only been driving the vehicle around 4900 since I purchased it in July 2020, their last service was done at the dealer on July 6 2020 which included oil change. Its on the service history record. I also started noticing a burning smell when I got out my vehicle so I decided to check my oil level and to my surprise I was 2 quarts low at only 58213 miles this should not be happening. I called and scheduled to get it looked at. According to the dealer, they are aware of this issue, so why not a courtesy call to the consumer? I just don't understand that. I can understand if the vehicle issued a warning light that stays on and won't go away then I would of done something about it, but it was just a change oil light and went away so I thought it was just reminding me and being that I was getting close to 58,000 and again only been driving it over 4,000 miles since last oil service. My fear is the dealer may try and hold me liable and have to pay for service for the issue because I did not take the vehicle in right away when I saw the oil service light first appear.

My Jeep is 4 years old and has 55,000 miles. I leased it brand new and have been the only driver. It has never been in an accident and all of a sudden the A/C is hissing and not blowing cold. I have contacted the Jeep dealer and they said they cannot help me since it is out of the 36,000 mile warranty. I had it diagnosed and it supposedly has a leak in the condenser and another hose.. I did not do anything for this to happen. This is not normal taking into account the miles are so low and it has been cared for so well. I believe it is due to faulty manufacturing or parts. Thank you.

My vehicle has been burning oil at an abnormal rate. I have to top it off several times between oil changes. It also runs extremely rough when in drive/reverse, but not moving(stop signs, drive throughs). If I put it into park or neutral, it runs fine. Occasionally, it will stall out when coming to a stop. I've had it at the dealership and they couldn't find an issue. They updated the ECU and tcu, but it didn't resolve it. My vehicle is no longer covered by warranty now.

While driving the car loses power and the message "shift to park" appears then the car stalls. The car was traveling less than 25mph.the car may or may not start afterwards. The battery was replaced but the same problem occurs. This has occurred multiple times and has stranded me. It doesn't matter the outside weather conditions.

- East Hampstead, NH, USA

Driving on highway at 70 mph up a minor incline, the vehicle started hesitating/chugging and then the accelerator pedal stopped responding. Vehicle stalled and coasted to stop where the idle was rough and then died. Initially, would restart, but then stall out. For the next 3 hours (while waiting for a tow), the electrical system was flaking out - intermittently flashing any error in its wheelhouse. Restarted next day and idle very rough/misfiring, engine light blinking and decent cloud of black smoke generated. Initial report from shop is that the engine oil is sludge (changed 5K miles ago), battery is completely dead (was already replaced at 15K miles) and a spark plug end is bent and in horrific shape. Vehicle has 25K miles and has been in service for 4.2 years.

After starting it just shuts down while car is in motion. Can happen anywhere. Engine just shuts off...then takes a couple of attempts to restart

When driving the car and entering the on ramp to the freeway the car lost the ability to accelerate. It appeared the gas peddle was inactive and the car was in neutral. It notified me with a light "electronic stability control" then the car suddenly went back into gear. I was concerned but was lead to believe this was part of the design. Suddenly without warning and for no reason at 25K miles the battery suddenly died. All lights came on in the car. It had no power and would not turn on. The dealership said "the battery just failed". in Aug I was shocked to turn on the car and have a message that says "change oil" well before an oil change is due. This was the first time I had seen this light because I am always on time with car maintenance. The $84.77 seems to have been spent on an unnecessary oil change, if this continues I will not be able to afford the constant oil changes. Mostly recently and most concerning on Tuesday the 29th of Sep. I was leaving for a medical appointment and when I turned on the car it said every light in the car was out. My neighbor came over and verified that I was missing several lights. The car was inoperable and I was stranded. I was able to get a ride, but when I got home a few hours later, I turned on the car and all the lights worked perfectly fine. With the above mentioned I am concerned for my safety, for the safety of others I share the road with, and the reliability of my 2016 Jeep Renegade

The engine idles too fast. 11/1/17 and 12/7/17 the tcm and PCM were reprogramed. No help. 2/13/18 dealer said " the idle speed can't be reset" 1/15/19 after lemon law the manufacturer agreed" we will replace your car", " 4/16/20 " we will not replace your car, but we will honor your warranty" 5/30/20 "your warranty has expired, choose another plan" the dealer has worked on my car 13 times over a three year period, I nearly crashed in April 2018, because the fast idle overpowered my brakes. I believe I am entitled to a new car just like mine, paid in full in 2017. I don't know how to include pictures

The engine burns through oil way to fast and creates unnecessary cost. Also it always feels like it's going to shut down when I turn right slowly. Power constantly fluctuates.

Cooling fan failed at 59,000 miles causing the car to overheat when running ac or at idle, slow moving speeds.

- Saylorsburg, PA, USA

The radiator fan makes rattling sounds while ac is in operation or vehicle idles.

- Chicopee, MA, USA

Cooling fan went out at 42,700 miles. Fan would make noise and rattle anytime the vehicle was at a stop, accelerating or when shutting the vehicle off, fan would shake the entire vehicle. Entire cooling fan assembly had to be replaced. Vehicle is now at 52,884 miles and the fan is making noise again.

- Stockton, CA, USA

I have had a problem with my car for a while now. It makes a sound, which friends and family have said sounds like a broken fan, when I am stopped or idling. It is a clicking and whirring sound that I can hear from outside and inside of the car. I have seen videos which describe an issue with the 2015/2016 Jeep Renegade engine cooling fan, which sounds exactly like what I am dealing with. I have also heard there have been recalls of this vehicle. I am not sure this is the exact issue, but I am afraid it might develop into the smoking and overheating that other owners of this car have experienced.

- Centereach, NY, USA

While driving, there is a clunk sound when the engine tries to switch gears. Also, the brake lights, turn signal lights, etc have a warning light that flashes saying the lights are out even when the lights are still working. I also had to replace he cooling fan in May 2018 due to my vehicle stopping, wouldn't drive, wouldn't start.
