Cooling fan started rattling very loud. It seems to be loose. Vehicle has 40114 miles. Research on internet confirms that this is a very common problem and Jeep redesigned their cooling fan for replacements and newer vehicle. This should be a recall sinc it is a known problem!!!

As I was driving my Jeep made a noise and started to overheat. I had it towed to the dealership and they informed me that it would be $600 to replace. I researched this and there are hundreds of affected Jeep owners. There is no recall but my car could have caught fire. It's outside of the basic warranty as well. This needs investigated asap!

Just like sooo many people online out radiator cooling fan started wobbling and now grinding. There are so many forums, sites and videos that show this is happening to a lot of people. A recall is not yet in effect but it needs to be asap. Cost is 400-1000 for each repair. And don't let them try to say it's an issue of dirt. It's usually around 36,000 miles so don't wait to fix it as the warrenty will expire.

At about 41000 miles when the cooling fan started to wobble and started to smell. Took it in to get it repaired. It was the cooling fan. After doing some research, over 1000S have had this issue due to faulting bearings in the fan. I urge to demand a recall on this.

On several occasions while driving there is a sudden loss of power. Particularly problematic when turning and trying to accelerate. Nothing happens, no throttle response. Vehicle also suddenly died today for no reason at a stop light (vehicle stopped). It was difficult to get it to restart, but eventually did restart.

Started running hot out of the blue. Checked fuses and the main fuse to the fan was blown. Replaced the fuse but the fan still is not turning on. Vehicle is still running hot and producing smoke/steam along with a burning smell. The symptoms started while waiting in stopped traffic but seemed to clear up while moving, then got worse while sitting idle with ac unit on. I have been reading up on if there are issues related to mine and there seem to be a lot of issues with the cooling fan. Why is this not a recall??

Radiator fan is failing at 20,000 miles not not keeping the radiator and engine cool. This occurs while driving and idling. Jeep has this part on back order with no eta. I was told that it could be weeks before the part arrives. I have been made aware that many other Jeep Renegade owners are experiencing this problem, as well as the long delay for the part to arrive. However, there is no recall that has been issued. I have a rental car that I am paying out of pocket for with no assistance from Jeep.

The contact owns a 2016 Jeep Renegade. While driving 10 mph, the vehicle overheating indicator illuminated. The vehicle was taken to a local dealer (ancira Eagle pass Ford Chrysler Dodge Jeep Ram, 403I9 adams cir, Eagle pass, tx 78852) where it was diagnosed that the fan fractured. The parts were on backorder until March 19, 2018. The vehicle was not repaired. The manufacturer was notified of the issue and opened case number: 33146932. The manufacturer offered to provide a loaner vehicle for ten days. The failure mileage was 21,000.

3 weeks ago I heard a wobbling sound under the hood while the car was idling. It was a day later I was able catch what it was making the noise which is the cooling fan. I had it towed to the dealership not wanting to drive it for fear of overheating. The issue was confirmed there and after two false arrival dates I spoke to the dealership and thy finally admitted there was no date for the arrival of the new fan. I am now paying for a car I have no idea when I will get back. My job requires me to travel long distances and the older car I am using now is not very reliable for this type of travel.

This car is eventually going to kill someone. The accelerator chooses when to work. My car has 35000 miles on it and when I am turning or on the highway or just driving normally, pressing down on the accelerator it has a two to three second delay before it will engage. The dealerships won't help me and it has almost caused me to get into numerous accidents with my three year old son in the car! many people are having the same issue. Also as of today I am having to replace the radiator fan for the third time. It has burned up twice before! how unfair to buy a new car and have to have these outrageous expenses and safety issues!!! this has to be fixed.

When I would get out of my vehicle with it on I could hear a raddling noise coming from the front of my Jeep. When I checked it out my radiator fan would wobbling when it spins. My Jeep only has 31,000 miles in it.

I have a 2016 Jeep Renegade that I bought brand new. It has 45,000 miles and when my girlfriend was driving to get some lunch from work and the car started overheating. Now I have realized the issue is that the radiator fan has stopped working. After doing some research I have learned that this is a nation wide problem effecting many people.

When driving my vehicle September 29 2017. My 1.3 year old Renegades check engine light turned on. Called to make appointment immediately with dealer. 5 minutes later the the temperature spiked in about 1 second to around 265 degrees. The temperature gauge gave no indication of a rising temperature and literally shot up. The radiator cooling fan locked up. Part is on national backorder don't know when it will get repaired and dont know how much engine damage has occurred. Seems to be a national issue as there are other Renegades that have been waiting for months for the same parts and have been at dealership for months. Wish Jeep would give me a refund as vehicle only gas 11800 miles and potentially gas catasprophic damage. Should be a recall and fav should buy vehicle back. Temperature gauge was useless as it only shows the level at normal and from one degree to the next shot to max. Once it went down a few degrees. Dropped backed down to normal range even though was still in 260 degree range. Faulty and unreliable. Most likely fcs will say engine is fine then it will break die due to warped or cracked cylinder or head gasket. Vehicle was in motion on a city street in semi steady traffic. Going in a straight line
