  • 80,000 miles
The contact owns a 2018 Jeep Renegade. The contact stated that while driving at an undisclosed speed, the vehicle overheated. The Engine Overheat message was displayed and the coolant warning light was illuminated. The vehicle was towed to the dealer and also to an independent mechanic on separate occasions, where it was diagnosed with a blown head gasket due to coolant intrusion into the cylinders. The vehicle was then towed to Jim Burke Chrysler Dodge Jeep Ram (1409 5th Ave N, Birmingham, AL 35203) where it was diagnosed that oil and coolant had mixed in the engine, causing damage to the radiator, engine, and thermostat. The vehicle was not repaired and remained at Jim Burke Chrysler Dodge Jeep Ram. The manufacturer was not made aware of the failure. The failure mileage was approximately 80,000.
