Defect Description:

ENGINE

Potential Consequences:

My engine cooling system is malfunctioning. My safety is at risk and can put others at risk while I am driving because the engine can permanently malfunction I lose control of my car. I have let the dealer at my local center Costa Mesa California Jeep Dealership and the representative did not help with my situation. The dealership installed a new engine due to a recall letter I received for my vehicle. I believe its the dealerships responsibility to fix the engine cooling system problem since they have just replaced a new engine on my vehicle. The problem first appeared since the day I picked up my vehicle from the dealership. I smelled coolant liquid from the first day and advisor just said that its normal to smell coolant because I just got a new engine installed for my vehicle.

VEHICLE SPEED CONTROL

Potential Consequences:

The Jeep will not accelerate as expected, it may have to do with the throttle bottle. This lack of acceleration or hesitation while accelerating, can lead to unsafe driving conditions. Under normal driving conditions, I need to be able to accelerate to pass a car, to merge onto the freeway, and be able to handle stop and go traffic without hesitation. I am afraid I may cause an accident if I continue to drive the Jeep. I will be biking as much as possible to avoid driving it in this condition. The dealer performed a diagnostic and admitted there was a problem, but I was told there was no know "fix" for it at the time. No one else has inspected the JEEP. There have been no warning lights at all.

UNKNOWN OR OTHER

Potential Consequences:

I was driving at highway speeds on I40 going through New Mexico up a hill with outside temperatures around 100degrees F when the car stopped accelerating. My speed continued decreasing despite me pushing the gas pedal. The engine stalled, the transmission and engine lights appeared on the display. I was able to pull the vehicle over to the side of the road at which point it would start but wouldn’t drive for more than 10-20 seconds without stalling. At one point the car was going in Reverse despite being shifted in D. This happened one other time a couple years ago while driving outside of Estes Park and the Jeep was taken to a local dealer and then to the dealer I purchased from and they were unable to replicate the issue or find a code. They replaced the shifter assembly. I hadn’t driven it in high heat and elevation again until recently.

SERVICE BRAKES

Potential Consequences:

I was in aware the driver side door wasn’t completely closed the indicator wasn’t on as I pulled out of a parking lot turning right I guess the door moved enough to set off the indicator and that in turn triggered the electric parking brake and the car locked down as a huge dump truck is coming towards me… I had plenty of space to pull out but when the brakes locked down now I’m stuck with seconds from unpact it takes 9 seconds to deactivate the epb having to be fully stopped push the brake pedal hit the button and wait for it to unlock I had about 4 my only option was to floor it dragging my rear end into the next lane then jump into the left turn lane because there was a semi coming in the other lane…. This accessory almost killed me it’s only a matter of time before people start being killed by a brake that will suddenly lock down for now good reason and in all my research there is no way to disable it from operation now I have flat spots on both my tires

POWER TRAIN

Potential Consequences:

The Renegade makes a loud noise coming from the rear of the vehicle at about 35 mph and begins to dissipate at around 45 mph when the car is in Drive. If I move the drive selector to manual shifting, the noise goes away for the most part. If I turn OFF the traction control, the noise disappears completely. I'm not real excited about turning off the traction control system as this could enhance the dangers of driving with reduced traction control. This happens without fail.

ENGINE

Potential Consequences:

I received a recall notice for engine consuming too much oil at which around the same time I was driving when the engine stalled on me in the middle of the road. I went to the dealer and they mentioned that engine was empty of oil. An oil consumption test was done and yielded normal results according to the dealership. Fresh oil change was given and after 3000 miles, the same problem occurred: engine stalled on me in the middle of the road way before the manufacturer recommended oil change interval. I called FCA Chrysler manufacturer who told me to go to another dealership. I go to another dealership and they said the same thing: oil consumption is normal. Dealer has been overfilling oil to compensate for the oil consumption so that when I return for oil changes or to complain, the oil leves appear to be normal.
