THE MOTOR QUIT RUNNING WHILE TURNING ONTO AN ON-RAMP (25MPH), AND THE READOUT ON THE DASH SAID ' LOW OIL PRESSURE '. I HAD TO COME TO A COMPLETE STOP, PUT IT IN PARK, AND PRESS THE BRAKE AND PUSH THE START BUTTON. IT STARTED UP AFTER A COUPLE OF TRIES, AND I DROVE ONTO THE INTERSTATE WITHOUT IT REOCCURRING. THIS HAS HAPPENED TWICE NOW. IT ALSO HAPPENED ON 01/11/2021.

MY VEHICLE IS DUE FOR AN OIL CHANGE FEBRUARY 11. MANY 2017 JEEP RENEGADES HAVE HAD A RECALL ISSUED ON THEM FOR THE VEHICLE STALLING WHILE DRIVING AND MINE HAS STARTED DOING THIS. IT HAPPENED ONE OTHER TIME AND I THOUGHT MAYBE I MISSED AN OIL CHANGE. AFTER HAVING THE OIL CHANGED THE PROBLEM WENT AWAY. I AM NOT YET EVEN DUE FOR MY OIL CHANGE AND AM EXPERIENCING THE ISSUE AGAIN. MY VEHICLE SHOULD HAVE BEEN INCLUDED IN THE RECALL BUT SOME HOW WAS MISSED. THIS IS A BIG TIME SAFETY ISSUE AND WOULD HOPE THAT YOU GUYS WOULD LOOK IN TO IT.

ENGINE, FUEL/PROPULSION SYSTEM, POWER TRAIN
2017 JEEP RENEGADE ENGINE DIES WHILE DRIVING, OFTEN AFTER MAKING TURNS, AND IT TAKES A FEW MINUTES TO START BACK UP. THIS HAS HAPPENED ON BOTH RESIDENTIAL STREETS AT SLOWER SPEEDS, AS WELL AS ON THE HIGHWAY AND IS EXTREMELY DANGEROUS. SERVICE DEPARTMENT AT JEEP DEALERSHIP SAYS IT'S NORMAL AND A "FEATURE" OF THE VEHICLE TO TURN OFF THE ENGINE IF OIL LEVELS GET TOO LOW. WE REGULARLY CHANGE THE OIL EVERY 3,000 - 4,000 MILES, AND THERE HAVE BEEN NO OIL LEAKS DETECTED.

ENGINE, POWER TRAIN
MY CAR STALLED AND TURNED OFF WHILE DRIVING. I WAS IN MOTION TURNING FROM ONE ROAD ONTO ANOTHER IN JULY 2020 AND AGAIN 2X ON DEC 23RD, 2020 WITHOUT ANY WARNING. IN JULY THE DEALER TOLD ME IT WAS A "SAFETY FEATURE" FOR THE ENGINE TO TURN OFF IF THE OIL IS LOW. IT HAD BEEN 4,729 MILES SINCE MY LAST OIL CHANGE DONE BY THE JEEP DEALER WITH SYNTHETIC OIL (WHICH IS GOOD FOR 6,000 MILES). WHEN I HAD THE OIL CHECKED AFTER IT STALLED ON DEC 23RD THE OIL WAS 4 QUARTS LOW! THERE IS CURRENTLY A RECALL FOR OTHER 2017 JEEP RENEGADES WITH THE 2.4L ENGINE, BUT MY VIN IS NOT INCLUDED. THERE WAS A CLASS ACTION LAWSUIT FOR MY YEAR MAKE AND MODEL CAR FILED ON JULY 21ST, 2020 FOR THIS SAME EXACT PROBLEM.

MY RENEGADE HAS STALLED 5XS IN THE LAST 4 MONTHS WHILE DRIVING DOWN THE ROAD. EACH TIME, I'M DRIVING AT LOW SPEEDS. IT CONSTANTLY SAYS MY OIL IS LOW, BUT THE TECHS KEEP SAYING MY OIL IS FINE. THIS LAST TIME, I CHECKED THE OIL. MY RENEGADE DIDN'T EVEN HAVE OIL ON THE DIP STICK. I SEARCHED MY USUAL PARKING SPOT AND THERE IS NO OIL ON THE GROUND.

CAR BURNS THROUGH OIL VERY QUICKLY. WHILE I WAS DRIVING, THE OIL LIGHT FLASHED FOR HALF A SECOND AND THEN THE CAR JUST COMPLETELY SHUT DOWN. THE OIL HAD RUN OUT COMPLETELY UNDER 2000 MILES FROM LAST OIL CHANGE. THIS HAS HAPPENED TWICE. IF YOU DON'T CONSTANTLY MANUALLY CHECK THE OIL LEVEL, THE CAR CAN JUST SHUT OFF WITHOUT WARNING WHILE YOU ARE DRIVING WHICH IS VERY DANGEROUS. THIS CAR BURNS THROUGH OIL EXTREMELY FAST.
