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.

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.

Jeep Renegade with only 40K miles (4K out of warranty) and engine coolant thermostat just stopped working. Entire housing has to be replaced just to fix the one problem. The problem was made known via service light coming on with "service engine" message appearing on dash. The error code was deciphered as "P0128: Coolant thermostat (coolant temperature below thermostat regulating temperature). It first appeared while driving on city streets at 40mph, and now appears at all times. This should not happen on a 3.5 year old vehicle.

After initial start car abruptly shuts off after accelerating a short distance. As to put car back in park restart and then put in gear.

- Lagrange, GA, USA

The car stops and turns off while in motion. Car lights turn on but engine will not turn on. Had battery replaced twice. The car won't turn off even after pushing the button and exiting the vehicle. Lights won't turn off. Key fob is detected when not near and not detected when inside car. Have gone to the extents of unplugging battery to reset computer after hours it will then turn on and work for about 1 week. With light issues in between. It's become a hazzard since the car will just turn off while driving and will not turn on even with a jump start from a tow truck. The car will become dead 100 percent. Only lights turn in at times until battery gets drained out. Then nothing works.

On two occassions while the vehicle was in drive operating on a two lane highway and remained in the drive position with the vehicle in motion the transmission indicator on the display shifted to neutral and the rpms revved without the accelerator pressed and the engine cut off. No codes or check engine lights indicated. The shifter remained in the drive position. The car had to be guided off the roadway and placed into park to be restarted. Vehicle was slow to restart both times. Both incidents occurred after entering a highway into the flow of traffic and accelerating and presented a danger to all drivers.

Dash display states multiple left side lights are out when no lights are out at all. This has happened every winter since 2016. When headlights are off things seem to be fine on the dash. When I turn headlights off shows bad light in 3 places. Lights are not out. Dash also flickers. I'm weather under 40 service engine indicator comes on, and engine will not function properly. Feels like half of cylinders are firing. Chrysler knows it's a faulty thermostat. Left me stranded 2 winters straight. Thermostat operates normally during spring/summer. While under warranty the technicians at david stanley Dodge in midwest city, ok said nothing was wrong with both issues. Refused to fix under warranty. Vehicle is now out of warranty and it will cost nearly $1000 to diagnose and fix. I put today's date in, but it's been happening for the last two years. With the thermostat problem and the electrical problems with the dash there is something seriously wrong with this electrical system. These issues are rampant and all over the forums. Miles when issue occurred are from 800 miles - 70483. I will our current mileage in the 'what was the mileage' block on next page.

Update to complaint # 11270456 reported on 10/23/19. I called Jeep directly to report the issue and they instructed me not to pick the car. They called dealership directly. They are aware of an "oil consumption issue" with 2016 Renegades which is related to the car stalling/going into neutral and the gear shifting issue. Since they did an oil change on 10/22/19, they want me to put 1,000 miles on the car & bring it back for an oil consumption test. Depending on the results of that test, they may have to replace the engine.

Radiator cooling fan malfunctioned

- Charleston, SC, USA

Ever since we bought the Jeep it's had problems. Problems included shuttering, electrical malfunctioning, and door locks failing. Even problems with the sun roof. Each time we took it back to the dealership the Jeep was returned with 'no problem found'. just recently the service engine light came on and we took the Jeep to get serviced. The mechanic told us about an issue or recall that's been occurring to our model Jeep.

- Sun Valley, CA, USA

While driving, warning light came up "shift vehicle to park" and car essentially goes into neutral. Once pulled over, car couldn't be restarted for a few minutes and wouldn't shift out of park. When it finally did shift, the "shift vehicle to park" warning came up again. Luckily, this happened on a local road and not a 70mph highway. Happened 2 more times when car was started and attempted to shift to D and/or R and car wouldn't shift.
