In April 2022, to my surprise the car first stalled on me while I was driving. The -€œpressure coolant high-€ was warning light that appeared on the screen when this happened. To start the car, I had to put it in park and then push the ignition button to get it started again. I continued my drive thinking it was a computer error because my coolant level was normal. Where it should be. A few minutes later, it happened again. And I repeated the same process to get it started. Knowing this was a serious issue, as I was driving with my child in the car, I made an appointment with the manufacturer to have it serviced. Three days later, the dealership -€œNothing-€™s wrong the car. A terminal on the battery was loose and it-€™s ready for pick up.-€ A few weeks later, the intermittent stalling began occurring again. However, it-€™s frequency became increasingly worse. It would stall unexpectedly as I am driving on highways, main roads, side streets; while the start/stop option is on and when it is turned off. All dangerous factors. In addition, to the -€œpressure coolant high-€ other warning lights came on: -€œparking brake alert-€, -€œcheck engine-€, -€œbattery-€, -€œthrottle failure-€. Then, the engine failed to come on at start-up. I would have to push the ignition button multiple times for the car to start. I took the car back to the dealership on June 29th, 2022 for the second time. After, I having the vehicle for 3 days they informed me that my car needed -€œa new battery and an oil change.-€ I had to plead with them to run more diagnostics on the renegade because this is more than a replacement battery issue. My safety, my family-€™s safety, and the safety of other drivers are at risk because I never know when this car will stall on me as I am driving. Unexpectedly, I can get hit from behind by a driver on the highway who is not expecting me to stop out of nowhere. In researching, I-€™ve found that has been a known issue since 2015.

Was driving and entering onto a freeway going about 40-50mph. I was able to reach 60 mph on freeway. All of a sudden the thing where car shuts off when stopped at light that came on and then check engine light and then had to slow down however after slowing I was not able to go above 40 mph and had to try to get over to pullover. I let my car sit for a couple hours and when I put it in drive and accelerated my front end was smoking and extremely hot. When I was able to open hood everything was hot opened oil cap as I had a puddle of oil now under my car smoke came pouring out of where you put oil. Not sure if connected but the month prior my car was being fixed for a blower motor and at that time was leaking oil. I had an issue previously on a Chevy Malibu where blower vacuum motor broke and caused broke piece to go into engine fan which then needed engine replacement. It is currently being diagnosed however all they can tell me is that I need a new engine likely and they can-€™t get enough compression to diagnose cause. This is dangerous with the amount of oil lost in that short amount of time. It should be noted it was just in for an oil change 2 wks prior to the incident at the jeep dealership where I bought the vehicle.

My 2020 Jeep Renegade would not shut off the evening of 6/22/21. The Jeep Road Service tech tried unhooking the battery but that did not shut it down. He thought that holding the key fob directly over /on the push start button it would shut it down. It did not. He then, at the suggestion of my father removed the 15 amp Fuel fuse and that finally stopped the car. He then towed it to the dealer Paul Bailey Chrysler/Jeep. They noted that the battery cable was loose and I explained that the tow truck person tried the battery at first. They said they reset the RFH ? I believe its located in the computer circuit. They road tested and said they never saw that happen before and I took it home. 6/24/21. So far so good.

The PCV will only work in one direction on the crankshaft/camshaft intake!

- Perry, UT, USA

The PCV-(pressure control valve) works like a diaphragm breathing in and out, which then blocks liquid from entering the air intake and manifold.

- Perry, UT, USA

Camshaft PCV-(pressure control valve) doesn't work properly=(in wrong direction). Asking for a recall. Can cause accident because of low idle and improper vacum in brakes causing them to fail.

On 4 separate occasions, traveling around 45-60 mph, the engine went into what was described as "limp mode" and the speed decreased to 20 mph with the tach reading ~6500 and was not able to attain and maintain safe traveling speeds. The first three occasions were on a rural road, twice in a slight curve and once in a straight away. It felt like the car had been rear-ended and then was not able to achieve highway speeds (which I turn right onto from my road). The fourth occasion was after the transmission was replace and while getting up to speed on the highway. The engine registered the car as being in second gear, while it was physically in drive and was unable to get above 45 mph while revving ~7000. It should also be stated that the loaner vehicle also a 2020 Jeep Renegade had a similar incident resulting in "limp in" and having to be towed back to the dealership.
