2017 Jeep Renegade

HAVE HAD VEHICLE SINCE 2018. FOR 2 YEARS, I HAVE HAD 3 CYLINDER MISFIRES (WITH THE LAST ONE ABOUT TO HAPPEN AT ANY MOMENT) AND MY VEHICLE HAS STALLED WHILE DRIVING (ONCE ON THE FREEWAY) ABOUT 8 TIMES. I HAD TO PULL OVER EACH TIME TO A COMPLETE STOP. THE VEHICLE STATING "VEHICLE CANNOT CHANGE GEARS UNTIL STOPPED." ONCE I TURNED OFF THE ENGINE, IT TAKES ABOUT FIVE MINUTES TO RESTART THE ENGINE. THE CYLINDER MISFIRES ALWAYS BEGIN WITH AGGRESSIVE JERKING WHILE VEHICLE IS IN MOTION. LASTING A FEW MONTHS, LEADING TO AGGRESSIVE SHAKING ONCE MISFIRED. ON OCCASION, WHILE VEHICLE IS STOPPED, SEAT BELT WILL ALSO NOT BUCKLE AND IN THE LAST TWO YEARS SEAT BELT HAS ALSO COME UNBUCKLED TWICE WHILE VEHICLE IS IN MOTION.

I WAS DRIVING MY CAR AS AN AUTOMATIC NOT SHIFTING IT. ALL OF A SUDDEN THE INFO SECTION SAYS DOWN SHIFT AS I WAS TURNING, I WAS IN MOTION THE WHOLE TIME, I DID NOT STOP TO TURN. AND IT DIES. RIGHT IN THE ROAD WHILE DRIVING. I HAVE LOOKED AND MY VIN DOESNT COME UP AS A RECALL BUT THIS OH MY GOD I WAS LUCKY I WAS ON A BACK ROAD TO BE OK, IF I HAD BEEN ON A BUSY ROAD OR INTERSTATE MY FAMILY AND I WOULD BE DEAD. WHAT IS WRONG WITH IT. I NEED THIS FIXED ASAP. THIS IS MY ONLY MEANS OF TRANSPORTATION. HELP ME!!!!!!!

THE CAR SEEMS TO WANT TO STALL WHEN DRIVING ALONG. HAD TO PRESS ON THE GAS AND GO ABOVE THE SPEED LIMIT SO AS NOT TO STALL. IF I PUT IT IN GEAR AND PRESS ON THE GAS I HAVE TO KEEP PUMPING THE GAS PEDDLE FOR THE ENGINE TO GET THE GAS. ALSO IF OIL IS LOW, THE CAR JUST SHUTS OFF HAS HAPPENED TO ME 3 TIMES, THE SENSOR (DUMMY LIGHT) DOES NOT WARN YOU THAT YOUR OIL IS LOW. I DO NOT DRIVE MY CAR FAR AS I AM AFRAID IT WILL STALL IN THE MIDDLE OF THE HIGHWAY AS I GO TO WORK.

I HAVE HAD THE OIL CHANGED USING THE RECOMMENDED WEIGHT AT THE RECOMMENDED TIMES/MILEAGE AND HAVE RUN OUT OF OIL BEFORE THE NEXT SCHEDULED OIL MAINTENANCE FOR THE APPROPRIATE MILES/TIME CAUSING ME TO STALL. THIS HAS HAPPENED FOR A TOTAL OF THREE OIL CHANGES AND STARTED AROUND MY 2ND YEAR WITH THE VEHICLE AT 30000 MILES. THE STALL HAPPENS ON HILLS OR WHEN ACCELERATING QUICKLY OR GOING AROUND CORNERS QUICKLY. I LOSE PRESSURE AND SPUTTER AND STALL. IT HAS BEEN DANGEROUS A FEW TIMES ALREADY

THE LOW OIL LIGHT CAME ON AFTER ROUNDING A CORNER. ABOUT TWO WEEKS LATER LOW OIL LIGHT CAME ON UPON BRAKING WHILE LEAVING THE PARKING LOT AND THE ENGINE STALLED. THIS OCCURRED TWO MORE TIMES WHILE STOPING AT RED TRAFFIC LIGHTS. THE NEXT DAY ON THE WAY TO GET THE OIL CHANGED THE BEHAVIOR WAS THE SAME. IF THE JEEP DEACCELERATED TOO QUICKLY, OR WENT AROUND A SHARP CORNER THE LOW OIL LIGHT CAME ON AND THE THE ENGINE STALLED. AFTER THE FIRST STALL, THAT HAPPENED AT A STOP SIGN, THE ENGINE HAD DIFFICULTY STARTING. I NEEDED TO TRY THREE TIMES BEFORE IT STARTED. AFTER THE OIL CHANGE IT IS OK. THE DEALERSHIP TOLD ME IT IS NORMAL THAT SOME ENGINES NEED TO HAVE OIL ADDED, ONE QUART, BETWEEN OIL CHANGES. I TOLD THEM THAT WAS NOT TRUE AND THIS WAS AN UNSAFE DEFECT.

THE ENGINE IGNITION COILS HAD GONE BAD, CAUSING THE CAR TO BREAK DOWN WHILE RUNNING ERRANDS IN TOWN DURING THIS COVID SITUATION. THE CAR ONLY HAD ABOUT 38,000 MILES ON IT AND I'M THE ORIGINAL OWNER. I WAS ABLE TO GET IT INTO A DEALER SAME DAY & THEY REPLACED A COIL & SPARK PLUG- GETTING THE CAR BACK ON THE ROAD. THEY ALSO REPLACED THE STEREO DUE TO ELECTRICAL PROBLEMS. THIS COST WAS PARTIALLY COVERED THROUGH MY TOYOTA CARE WARRANTY. OTHER PROBLEMS:THE TRANSMISSION ALSO HAS TROUBLE FINDING THE RIGHT GEAR WHEN ACCELERATING & OFTEN JERKS OR STALLS. THERE IS ALSO A VIBRATION/ RATTLE SOUND COMING FROM THE ENGINE COMPARTMENT IN FRONT OF THE PASSENGER SIDE. MY DEALERSHIP DOESN'T WANT TO HELP FIGURE OUT THE OTHER PROBLEMS, IF THE CAR IS OPERATING. THEY ARE CLEARLY TOO BUSY TO INVEST THE NECESSARY TIME & PROBABLY ARE RECEIVING MULTIPLE COMPLAINTS LIKE MINE. AND I JUST READ AN ARTICLE ABOUT FCA ARE CONSIDERING A FULL RECALL OF THE 2.4 TIGER SHARK MODELS. VERY DISAPPOINTED IN JEEP QUALITY AND SERVICE.
