Potential Consequences:
WHILE DRIVING DOWN THE ROAD MY JEEP STALLED AND SHUT OFF ON SEVERAL DIFFERENT OCCASIONS. I CALLED THE DEALERSHIP AND WAS TOLD THE OIL WAS PROBABLY LOW AND TO BRING IT IN. SURE ENOUGH IT WAS NOT REGISTERING ON THE DIPSTICK. I GOT MY OIL CHANGED AND LESS THAN 2 MONTHS LATER THE JEEP STALLED OUT AGAIN. I CHECKED THE OIL AND THERE WAS NONE. I CALLED THE DEALSHIP AND I HAVE AN APPOINTMENT TODAY TO START AN OIL CONSUMPTION TEST. I DROVE LESS THAN 4,000 MILES BETWEEN OIL CHANGES BEFORE I BROKE DOWN AGAIN. THE JEEP GIVES NO WARNING OR LIGHT INDICATION WHEN THIS HAPPENS. I AM THANKFUL I WAS NOT DRIVING ON THE HIGHWAY CAUSING A SERIOUS ACCIDENT. THE JEEP IS BURNING THROUGH SOME SERIOUS OIL.

Potential Consequences:
I BOUGHT MY JEEP RENEGADE IN AUGUST OF 2018. NOT EVEN A MONTH OF DRIVING LATER (2,000 MILES), I WAS ON THE SIDE OF THE HIGHWAY BECAUSE THE ENGINE STALLED AND THEN GAVE ME A LOW OIL PRESSURE WARNING. WHEN I TOOK THE VEHICLE INTO THE DEALERSHIP THEY SAID IT WAS TOO EARLY TO DO AN OIL CHANGE AND TO COME BACK AT 10,000 MILES. I HAD TO FILL THE VEHICLE WITH 2 QUARTS OF OIL TO KEEP IT RUNNING. I THEN RAN INTO THE SAME PROBLEM AT THE 7,000 MILE MARK WHERE I STALLED ON THE SIDE OF THE ROAD. THE DEALERSHIP FINALLY DID AN OIL CONSUMPTION TEST, AND I THOUGHT THEY WOULD SEE IT AS A PROBLEM THAT THE ENGINE IS "CONSUMING" 1 QUART PER 1,000 MILES. HOWEVER, IT IS "NORMAL" UNDER THE FCA GUIDELINES FOR THEIR ENGINES TO CONSUME THIS AMOUNT OF OIL. I TRIED TO GET THE DEALERSHIP TO GET ME OUT OF THE VEHICLE I HAD JUST BOUGHT, AND THEY TOLD ME IT WASN'T WORTH VERY MUCH BECAUSE IT HAD A BAD ENGINE. THEY WOULD NOT FIX THE ENGINE THOUGH UNLESS IT WAS CONSUMING MORE THAN 1 QUART PER 1,000 MILES. I COMPLETED YET ANOTHER TEST TO FIND THAT THE OIL CONSUMPTION STAYED THE SAME. I WAS HAVING TO FILL THE OIL RESERVOIR IN BETWEEN OIL CHANGES IN FEAR THAT I WOULD STALL ON THE HIGHWAY AGAIN AND GET HIT BY A VEHICLE. THERE ARE NO WARNING LIGHTS FOR THIS ISSUE UNTIL AFTER THE ENGINE STOPS. THE DEALERSHIP TOLD ME I NEEDED TO JUST CHECK THE DIPSTICK EVERYTIME I FUEL UP. THIS IS ONLY A TEMPORARY FIX AS I AM FILLING UP WITH $10 QUARTS OF OIL EVERY 1,000 MILES AND THEN DOING AN OIL CHANGE EVERY 3,000 MILES BECAUSE IF I GO TO THE RECOMMENDED 10,000 MILES THERE WILL BE ENGINE PROBLEMS. I WOULD LIKE TO DO MY OWN OIL CHANGES, BUT HAVE BEEN GOING TO THE DEALERSHIP IN FEAR THAT I WOULD BE TO BLAME FOR THE OIL CONSUMPTION ISSUE IF I DARED TO CHANGE MY OWN OIL. I AM CURRENTLY AT 30,000 MILES. IT APPEARS THAT CHRYSLER IS AVOIDING RESOLVING THE ISSUE UNTIL IT COMES OUT OF MY POCKET IN 6,000 MILES.

IT DOES THIS IN ANY GEAR UPON SHIFTING IF I AM IN NEED TO QUICKLY INCREASE MY SPEED. FOR INSTANCE WHEN I NEED TO GET ON TO AN INTERSTATE (WHICH I DRIVE EVERYDAY) I HAVE TO WAIT FOR THE TRAFFIC TO BE CLEAR BEFORE I CAN GET ON THE INTERSTATE BECAUSE IT WONT GO QUICK ENOUGH WITH TRAFFIC TO MERGE. IF I AM OUT FOR AN EASY DRIVE IT DRIVES JUST FINE. (JUST LIKE THE RECALL FOR THE OTHER RENEGADE LISTED. THIS HAS NOT FIXED ITSELF. IT IS STILL CONSTANTLY DOING THIS.

Potential Consequences:
MY CAR IS SHUTTING DOWN WHILE DRIVING IT. MY CAR JUST STARTED SAYING 'LOW OIL PRESSURE' AND NOT EVEN A DAY LATER TURNED OFF WHILE I WAS DRIVING IT AND I WAS ALMOST REAR ENDED. IT DID IT ONCE MORE BEFORE I WAS ABLE TO GET IT INTO THE DEALERSHIP. THE DEALERSHIP TOLD ME TO DO AN OIL CONSUMPTION TEST AND BRING IT BACK IN BUT I DON'T THINK I SHOULD HAVE TO DRIVE A POTENTIALLY UNSAFE CAR. THERE IS A CLASS ACTION LAWSUIT AGAINST FCA FROM OTHER PEOPLE EXPERIENCING THE SAME PROBLEMS I AM EXPERIENCING BECAUSE FCA HAS KNOWN ABOUT THESE ISSUES FOR YEARS AND HAS DONE NOTHING TO FIX THE PROBLEM.
