The engine over heats at high speed for an extended period of time say 70 to 80 mph or going up grades at speed or pulling a small trailer. I have had the Jeep checked several times at the dealership and they say everything is fine but this is dangerous to say the least especially in heavy traffic. Mechanic said this is a normal complaint on this model Jeep! this has been a constant problem since I bought this vehicle new!!!! no photos are necessary! this date is just the last time it has stalled but I was with my wife in heavy traffic which concerned me! for her safety!!

I got up to get ready to go to choir rehearsal my Jeep would not crank, and the key was stuck in the switch, it took almost 30 minutes to get the key out, finally the Jeep cranked but I could not get the gear to go into reverse, drive or nothing, and on the dash board where it tells you how many miles you have on the automobile it was blinking and also on the dash board it say service transmission.. I have read on your site as I was searching to find out why this is happening, so many of these Jeep seem to do this when they reach 40 thousand miles. I am grateful that I was not on the road because the day before this happen the Jeep seem to have lost speed ifor a brief moment, this is very dangerous something need to be done about this.

Car will fail sporadically to accelerate while trying to merge into traffic I was almost hit by other vehicles more than once I've talked to others with the same car and all of them described the same exact experience it's only a matter of time before someone is killed.

It started as a wobble type noise coming from the engine compartment a couple days prior. Suddenly my check engine light activates and I notice a change in my ac. On my way to detroit my temp gauge reaches max, thus illuminating a red temp warning. I quickly found a pay-to-park lot near my destination. While allowing time for the engine to cool down, I googled my engine light and overheating issue. Returning to my vehicle I was able to quickly diagnose a well known issue involving a wobbly cooling fan and a blown 50A fuse. Fortunately the night cooled and I was able to return home without ac nor the aid of an operating cooling fan. My stories similar to countless others. I've seen one video claiming a recall fix posted last month. It appears a shield has been added...I believe that'll definitely fix the poorly engineered issue involving the proximity of the fan to the exhaust manifold.

Vehicle will randomly accelerate without any input from the gas pedal. This can vary from a short burst of speed and a spudur to a long term acceleration that only stops when applying the break. Even when stationary the vehicle will raise rpms considerably wanting to lurch forward if not in park. This issue began to be noticeable around the 25,000 mile mark in my case.

Just bought this used - good condition except that it literally "lunges" forward when you accelerate, typically going from 1st to 2nd gear. There is a definite hesitation between the time you press the gas pedal and the time it takes to move forward. When taking a left turn into cross traffic I have to make sure I have extra time to account for the loss of acceleration.

While I was driving on the interstate, going 70 mph, my car stopped running and said there was an error. I had a family member help me load it up and take it to the dealership. They told me that my fuel sensor malfunctioned and showed me that I had gas however my car had no gas. I had to purchase an entire fuel pump since the sensor is integrated within the pump. My mileage was 36,000 now my radiator fan assembly needs replaced as it is going out. I am at 41,000 miles now. I noticed a weird noise coming from the motor area while I was idling. I noticed

So, I have had my 2015 Jeep Renegade sport front wheel drive for almost 3 1/2 years. I have had issues with the jerking of the shifting of my car when I drive, this has been going on since summer of 2017, I bought my Renegade new February 2016. Winter 2017 it started revving too high when stopped at the stoplights or at a stop sign. Then at the beginning of November 2018 my check engine light pops on and I took it right away to auto zone so they can run diagnostics and came to find out that my thermostat went out, my car just rolled over 38,000 miles, my warranty was up at 36,000, I had to shell out over $500 to replace that, I'm glad I did because I live in the midwest in the quad city area on the Illinois side and our coldest day was 55 below 0. then just today, June 1st, 2019 my radiator cooling fan motor went out all of the sudden. I was at sam's club, turned my car on and check engine light popped on again and it started to overheat and again made my way over to auto zone and they ran diagnostics again and as soon as I got in my car my air conditioning went out and called my mom and told her what was wrong with it, called my dad, then it started to completely overheat and the warning popped up and I called my dad and my older brother took the phone and told me to turn the heater on in my car to draw heat away, it worked and I made it home to port byron, il without having to pull over because my brother told me to turn the heater on and roll the windows down and lots of prayer helped get me home safely.

Radiator cooling fan seized up, producing black electrical smoke which consequently caused the vehicle to overheat. This happened stationary on a stop light.

- Saint James City, FL, USA

The heat in the vehicle was coming out cold. Car began overheating and temperature rose to over 220. Car began to overheat. Had to pull over on the highway and turn off the vehicle for 25 minutes to allow it to cool. This happened twice. Check engine light came on. Brought to a mechanic who ran a diagnostic and the cooling fan was failing. Mechanic stated when the code was put in the Jeep Renegade was the first vehicle to pop up. This should be a known mechanical recall. Car only has 50,000 miles on it and the fan should not be failing.

I was driving on the freeway and my car started losing power then started jerking and shaking the car. I couldn't speed up, I could hear the engine revving up but nothing. I had to pull over and turn off car and start back up, I still couldn't hit 60mph I the freeway so I got off the freeway and took the streets home. When running the car under 30mph the car was fine but once I hit the higher gears my car would shake or just down shift on its on.

After several times restarting the car, the car power steering would continue to go out and light come on. After about 4 hours, the car was turned off on a city street, all running lights and radio stayed on, keys were removed, and car was completely unresponsive to keys, key fab, or buttons on door such as power locks/ windows. Car was towed to dealership for service.
