2018 Jeep Renegade

Vehicle is not throwing a code or check engine light but is sputtering and stalling or losing power while driving. This can be when I’m slowing down or accelerating. It’s done it on the interstate and while approaching a red light. I have taken it to the dealership and they said there is nothing wrong with my vehicle and they can not find the issue. I had them check the fuel pump since that was the closest issue I can find to my issue. They said the fuel pump has no issues. There has to be a reason why my car is shutting down while driving and not all the time. It will do it one day and not again for weeks or months and then do it back to back and then nothing again for a while. There has to be a reason why my Jeep is acting like this and not triggering a light or code and the dealer is unable to resolve it.

What component or system failed or malfunctioned, and is it available for inspection upon request? The back manual sunroof broke off on the highway going 60 mph. The sunroof flew onto the highway while the hinge that was attached to the sunroof flew off hitting me while driving. It is available for inspection. How was your safety or the safety of others put at risk? I was physically hit with the piece that broke off, and if there was a car driving behind me, the sunroof flying off could have caused an accident. Has the problem been reproduced or confirmed by a dealer or independent service center? Vehicle will be going to Jeep dealership on 6/7/2023 Has the vehicle or component been inspected by the manufacturer, police, insurance representatives or others? The component will be inspected by Jeep on 6/7/2023 Were there any warning lamps, messages or other symptoms of the problem prior to the failure, and when did they first appear? There were no symptoms prior to failure. Sunroof had not been opened in 3 years, we only used the front automatic sunroof which is also displaying signs of failure.

Vehicle suddenly powers down with no warning lights. This happened in traffic. Upon pulling over, turning off and restarting the vehicle, it was fine. It happened again a half hour later. Dealership could not identify the problem. Car was fine for more than a week, then happened again. It seems to be a common problem per internet search for this model.

I am not sure what component has failed but it cause the car to stall where ever it is located without time to maneuver the vehicle to a safe area. I have had the oil consumption test completed multiple times, I have had to have the vehicle towed to the dealership on multiple occasions. I try not to drive the car on the highway due to the possibility of the car stalling at speeds of 70 mph and would pose a risk to myself and others. The dealer did witness the problem the last time I had the car towed, as they had a difficult time getting the car off of the flatbed because it wouldn't start. The dealer has only changed the battery and alternator, they have not resolved this issue and I have had this issue since I purchased the car new in 2019. They have all of my service tickets to back up my claims but refuse to fix the problem. The vehicle has not been inspected by anyone other than the dealership that it was purchased from. All of the warning lights flash when the vehicle stalls. After researching on google, this is a common problem and there is a class action lawsuit that has been filed and is in progress. I am not sure what is causing this but I do have to get oil changes before it is time for my scheduled oil change which would lead me to think this is related the oil consumption or fuel pump issues that have been reported. I do not feel safe driving the vehicle. The vehicle is actually at the dealership now and they are telling me that it is ready for pick up after only fixing the battery and alternator.

Coolant in reservoir has been overheating since replacement of o-ring on pressure cap. I have take the car to the mechanic twice to find the solutions as to what could be causing this issue. The first time I was told it was not my radiator because I thought I had suffered damage to it from an accident a couple of years ago, and the second time they have flushed the system and told me there were no signs of leakage in the system. I have even speculated it could be the thermostat housing, so I got that replaced as well, but to no avail.

On several occasions the sun roof will not close. when you try to close the vent it will open it self all the way and will not close. There have been times it started to rain and could not close it because it would move forward then go back all the way open. I took it to the dealer and they said if something is in the track it will not close. That includes water if you wash the windshield.
