2018 Jeep Renegade

I HAD PURCHASED A BRAND NEW 2018 JEEP RENEGADE TRAILHAWK AND BEFORE IT HAD EVEN REACHED THE APPROPRIATE MILEAGE TO BRING THE VEHICLE IN FOR ITS FIRST STANDARD SERVICE, I HAD DISCOVERED THE ENGINE WAS BURNING AN EXCESSIVE AMOUNT OF OIL. THE VECHILE HAS STALLED ON ME BEFORE WHILE THE CAR WAS IN MOTION AND WHILST DRIVING ON BUSY HIGHWAYS. I HAVE MADE MULTIPLE COMPLAINTS WITH THE DEALERSHIP AND MADE ATTEMPTS TO HAVE THE ISSUE CORRECTED (OIL CONSUMPTION TEST, REPLACING THE PCV VALVE) AND YET THE ISSUE STILL EXISTS. JEEP STAFF MEMBERS THROUGH THE DEALERSHIP ALONG WITH MEMBERS FROM JEEP HEADQUARTERS KEEP ATTEMPTING TO INFORM ME "IT'S NORMAL, JUST KEEP PUTTING OIL IN IT.." I AM NOT SATISFIED WITH THIS RESPONSE. I DO NOT FEEL SAFE DRIVING THIS VEHICLE. IT IS NOT ONLY HAZARDOUS TO MYSELF AS THE DRIVER, BUT ALSO THE PUBLIC WHEN THE CAR DOES STALL.

BOUGHT MY JEEP BRAND NEW IN JUNE 2018. WITHIN THE FIRST MONTH, THE USB PORT THAT CONNECTS TO CAR PLAY WOULD CONNECT THEN DISCONNECT WHEN IT RAINED. TOOK CAR TO DEALERSHIP AND THEY SAID THEY COULDN'T IDENTIFY THE ISSUE UNLESS I BROUGHT IT IS WHEN THE PROBLEM HAPPENED AND SHOWED THEM. WHICH I COULDN'T BECAUSE THEY WERE ALWAYS CLOSED WHEN THE PROBLEM OCCURRED. WITHIN THAT SAME MONTH, WHEN I PRESSED ON THE BRAKES IT SOUNDED LIKE THERE WAS AIR IN THE BRAKE LINE. EVERY SO OFTEN, THE SATELLITE RADIO WILL CUT OUT AND SAY "ACQUIRING SIGNAL". CAR HAS ALSO STALLED OUT ON ME 3 TIMES WHILE DRIVING. TWICE BEFOREHAND, WHEN I MADE A SHARP RIGHT TURN, THE OIL LIGHT WOULD POP ON FOR LITERALLY 2 SECONDS AND GO OFF. CAR WOULD STALL OUT AND WHEN I CHECKED THE DIP STICK, IT SHOWED I HAD BARELY ANY OIL. MANUAL SAYS EVERY 6000 MILES. OIL RUNS OUT BEFORE THE 6000 MILE MARK.IF I KNEW I'D BE PAYING OUT SO MUCH IN OIL , I WOULDN'T HAVE PAID SO MUCH FOR THIS STUPID TRUCK. ITS A COMPLETE RIP OFF. ONE OF THE TIMES IT STALLED OUT, I WAS MAKING A LEFT HAND TURN WITH MY CHILDREN IN THE CAR. IT STALLED OUT JUST AS I WAS TURNING AND A CAR WAS COMING IN THE OPPOSITE DIRECTION AND ALMOST HIT ME. THERE HAS BEEN NOTHING BUT ISSUE AFTER ISSUE WITH THE VEHICLE TO WHICH THE DEALERSHIP WOULD TELL ME THERES NOTHING WRONG WITH THE VEHICLE WHEN I TOOK IT THERE. OR THAT THEY CANT FIX IT UUNTIL I CAN REENACT THE PROBLEM FOR THEM

MY WIFE HAS HAD HER RENEGADE FOR ABOUT 6 MONTHS NOW. WE PURCHASED IT BRAND NEW. A COUPLE WEEKS AFTER WE GOT IT SHE WAS DRIVING DOWN THE ROAD IN TOWN AND IT STARTED SPUTTERING AND SHUT OFF UNDER A RED LIGHT AT A BUSY INTERSECTION AND ABOUT GOT HIT. AFTER A COUPLE MINUTES IT FINALLY STARTED BACK AND WAS ABLE TO GET IT OFF THE ROAD. ONCE OFF THE ROAD SHE LET IT SIT AND STARTED IT BACK UP AND ATTEMPTED TO DRIVE HOME BUT IT CUT OFF AGAIN. WE LEFT IT OVER NIGHT AT THE SHERIFF'S DEPT AND GOT IT THE NEXT DAY AND DROVE IT TO THE DEALERSHIP. WE TOLD THEM WHAT WAS HAPPENING AND THEY KEPT IT FOR ABOUT A WEEK AND SAID THEY COULDN'T FIND ANYTHING WRONG WITH IT. SO AFTER DRIVING IT FOR ANOTHER COUPLE OF DAYS IT STARTED MESSING UP AGAIN. SO YET AGAIN WE TOOK IT BACK TO THE DEALERSHIP AND THEY KEPT IT FOR ABOUT A WEEK AND SAID THEY FIXED IT. NOW AFTER A COUPLE OF MONTHS ITS DOING THE SAME THING AS BEFORE AND ABOUT CAUSED HER TO GET HIT. IT'S BACK AT THE DEALERSHIP SO HOPEFULLY THEY WILL FIGURE IT OUT. BUT AFTER READING ALL OF THE REPORTS FROM OTHER PEOPLE I DON'T HAVE MUCH FAITH IN THAT. HOPEFULLY JEEP WILL SWALLOW THEIR PRIDE AND RECALL THE VEHICLES BEFORE SOMEONE GETS KILLED.

FIRST, SPEAKER KEEPS GOING IN AND OUT THEN 12V PORT WAS DEAD. SCREEN SHOT OFF A FEW TIMES. HANDS FREE ACCESS STOPPED WORKING A FEW TIMES. NOW FOR THE 3RD TIME (3 DIFFERENT STALL OUTS), THE CAR IS SHUTTING OFF ON ITS OWN WHILE DRIVING. THIS LAST TIME, IT ACTED LIKE IT WAS IN ANOTHER SHIFT OTHER THAN DRIVE AND WHEN I PUT IT IN PARK IT RAN ROUGH THEN JUST DIED. CAME BACK ON LIKE NOTHING HAPPENED AFTER SHUTTING OFF AND RESTARTING.

CAR ONLY HAS 4000 MILES ( STILL LIKE NEW). ONCE INCIDENT I HAD WAS TRYING TO MAKE A TURN I SLOWED DOWN THEN WHEN ATTEMPTING TO ACCELERATE THE CAR WOULDNT GO . I HAD TO PULL OVER AND COMPLETELY TURN OFF THE VEHICLE. HAS HAPPEN 3 TIMES IN LESS THAN ONE WEEK. IVE MADE SEVERAL ATTEMPTS TO CONTACT DEALER AND SERVICE DEPT, BUT NO CALL BACKS.

VEHICLE STALLED WHILE PULLING OUT INTO TRAFFIC, ANOTHER TIME IT DIDN'T START AFTER A FEW TRIES VEHICLE STARTED. STALLED A SECOND AND THIRD TIME BUT I NOTICED THE OIL INDICATOR LIGHT CAME ON FOR A TENTH OF A SECOND THEN WENT OUT. RETURNED HOME AND CHECKED THE OIL LEVEL. (VEHICLE WAS JUST IN FOR A 1000 MILE COURTESY CHECK BY THE DEALER VEHICLE HAD 2660 MILES ON ODOMETER) SERVICE MANAGER SAID EVERYTHING IS OK AND WE LEFT. ODOMETER HAS 2975 MILES WHEN THIS SHUTTING OFF OCCURRED. WHEN DIP STICK WAS READ IT WAS READING THE VERY TIP OF THE STICK. I ADDED 3 QTS. OF MANUFACTURES RECOMMENDED OIL AND TOOK THE VEHICLE TO THE DEALER TO READ THE CODES AND ASK WHY I WAS OUT OF OIL WITH NO OIL INDICATOR LIGHT ON. SAFETY CONCERN IS THIS ENGINE PER THE SERVICE MANAGER IS PROGRAMMED TO SHUT OFF IN THE EVENT OF A LOW OIL PRESSURE. THE ISSUE I HAVE IS THAT YOU DO NOT GET ANY WARNING THAT YOU HAVE LOW OIL PRESSURE UNTIL THE ENGINE SHUTS OFF AND THEN YOU REALLY DON'T KNOW WHY.
