Example complaints

Selected from NHTSA records; personal details are removed. They are consumer reports, not findings.

“I bought this 2022 Jeep Renegade in 2023. Upon changing the oil today (3/13/2026) my mechanic found a rear main seal leak. He stated to check for recalls/safety as this should not be happening; the car only has 54,000 miles on it. I have called a couple friends that have one and they too have leaks. Is this covered for repair under a recall? Also the engine stalls when I try to take off, jerking and stalling. I know this isn't normal for this car to act like this. It will also stall or jerk sometimes while driving it. I will have this car two years this April 2026. …”

“First, this vehicle is burning 1 quart of oil every 750 miles. Being unaware, when driving, engine shudder and tried to fail, making me unable to accelerate through an intersection. When trying to accelerate, the vehicles RPMs extend above 4 if I don’t accelerate at an extremely slow pace. I can not get up to speed quickly when going on to a freeway. The vehicle collision warning continues to malfunction. Had it fixed again recently. Gas is burning faster than it should be because of the high RPMs and engine working so hard. …”

“Since May 2024, my 2022 Jeep Renegade Sport has developed serious safety-related issues involving the fuel/propulsion system, power train, and electrical systems. Specific incidents include: Strong fuel vapor odor detected both inside and outside the vehicle, even when parked, raising inhalation and ignition hazard concerns. Initial diagnosis of leaking transmission fluid under the vehicle (later reclassified as engine oil), with ongoing erratic shifting, severe throttle lag, and violent shaking at highway speeds. …”
