2020 Jeep Renegade

Infotainment system is highly defective even after replacement. The screen goes black, shows white lines and you're left unable to use your backup camera! After doing research this problem stems all the way back to 2016 renegades with the same system.

My 2020 Jeep Renegade has been burning a quart of oil every 1,000 miles or so. Im sure many people do not check it as consistently as i do. Burning oil im sure is hard on the spark plugs, catalitic converters, and the emissions.

Vehicle has an oil leak due to a faulty vacuum pump and gasket which is causing the vehicle to leak an excessive amount throughout the engine and other components. It was seen by a repair shop and they pinpointed the leak. This could cause an engine to stall while driving if not fixed soon which could potentially involve being in a accident to cause injury and or even death. The leak first appeared in August 2025 and can not be driven until fixed. This issue is also happening to my husbands vehicle which is the same as mine.

Backup Camera/Radio/UConnect screen is glitching to where I can no longer see the backup camera when in reverse, and can no longer see what is playing on the radio. This started happening less than 3 months ago, when the heat started ramping up. Backup camera is a safety mechanism, and while using the rear view mirrors is fine, the backup camera should work without fail.

The screen began glitching for a week. By the end of the week, the middle of the screen turn back. It is a hazard when reversing as you cannot see pedestrians or how far objects are due to the blackout. Moreover, when using navigation, the road for traffic is not visible so it is a safety hazard. It was review at a Jeep dealership after I took my car in for a recall. My vehicle is ready for inspection and it has not been reviewed by insurance or police.

The screen for the back-up camera doesn't work at all. The touch screen still works if you know where everything should be on the display but there's is no visual input at all. Just a black screen. This is exceptionally dangerous in such a large vehicle because backing up without that camera could result in serious injury or death of pedestrians, especially children.

The contact owned a 2020 Jeep Renegade. The contact stated that while the vehicle was stopped on the expressway for roadway construction, another vehicle rear-ended the rear driver's side. The contact's head and face struck the steering wheel, causing a nosebleed. The vehicle spun and collided with two to three other occupied vehicles; however, the contact did not know if anyone was injured. The air bags did not deploy, and the seat belts failed to restrain the contact and her two minor children, seated in the rear passenger's and driver's side seats. The contact's child, who was sitting in the rear passenger's seat, was thrown into the trunk upon impact. The doors failed to unlock until the fire department arrived. The firefighters opened the door to evacuate the contact and her children. The contact and her children were transported to the hospital by ambulance, where police informed her that the vehicle that rear-ended her was driving at 90-95 MPH. The contact was unaware that police and fire department reports had been filed. The contact had body aches, and bruises on her stomach, legs, and back, and her left pinky was fractured. One of the contact's sons suffered from back and leg pain, while the other had headaches. The vehicle was towed to a tow yard and deemed totaled by the insurance company. The contact later received an email from the dealer stating that the vehicle was included in NHTSA Campaign Number: 24V510000 (Air Bags, Seat Belts). The manufacturer was not made aware of the failure. The failure mileage was unknown. The VIN was unavailable.

My touchscreen has begun to have an issue wherein the center of the screen displays as discolored, sometimes has lines running through the display, and sometimes glitches in such a way that items on the screen are in different spots than usual. The warped view of the screen is a nuisance; however, what is even more of a safety issue is that it affects the reliability of the backup camera. While of course I must still turn my head to physically look behind me while backing up, the fact that the backup camera cannot be safely used is a major defect. My car is 4 years old, has never been in any accidents or collisions, and there is no reason that the display should be malfunctioning already. I have not had this issue with the display inspected whatsoever. There were no warnings of this defect, it simply appeared one day out of nowhere about 4 weeks ago.

Go to step on gas to accelerate my jeep it will limp backwards on speed then all of a sudden take off like a rocket, jerking everybody in the car like g force, jerking head & necks, also driving down the road car has several times shut completely off, having me to pull vehicle over to side of road, & restarting the car.I I’ve had radio system shut completely off by itself for no reason. I have had the vehicle in to shop several times, they put on computer system, to recheck and redo computer, they call me to pick it up next day & still jerking like g- force hesitating & taking off like a rocket, took it back three times they said they put power steering fluid in it, well guess what not fixed. I have less than 30k miles on vehicle, & this has been going on since under 11k miles. Now when you stop and put vehicle in park the vehicle jumps forward & backwards, like you slammed your brakes on, several times my car has almost hit my garage door or in a parking garage the wall, or a parked car, the steering is very loose, & touchy, also noise like clunking in the wheel well, my friend said sounds like the springs. the tie rods & wheel bearings have been checked and are fine, now I’m scared the springs may break & drop the car around the wheels. I don’t drive far my town, is 5 minutes away so like 20 miles when I go out, I’m retired so car is just driven to the store or family’s. Sometimes I’m scared to drive it. My fiancé that just passed away sept 2023, said the jerking g/force is something to do with the drive train, transmission. the car shutting off is a dangerous thing to happen when your driving down the highway. I feel this 2020 jeep has a lot of dangerous complications. I’m not sure if someone has gotten seriously hurt yet, but from what I’ve heard a couple of my friends had same problems & traded in & reading people complaints have same problem, power train should be recalled. this car is a big headache, that I can’t afford. I feel you need to replace my car

UNKNOWN- When phone is connected to car and navigation is used the screen in car freezes, lags and turns the radio off and on. It happens too many times to keep count as I drive for a living. I took my jeep into the dealership to address the problem and get it fixed. The dealership told me they are aware of the problem. They had already tried to fix the problem on several jeeps, and they were brought back with the same complaint. They weren't going to waste their time or money trying to fix the problem on any of the jeeps until they knew exactly what the problem was and how to fix it. I was told they couldn't do anything for me. That when the problem is occurring, I should get a video of it happening and bring it to them so they can try to figure out what the problem is. The problem is I'm driving when the problem occurs, so I can't safely record it happening.

While driving my 2020 Jeep Renegade it will just shut itself down with no warning. I was on the freeway going 60 mph when the car just shut off causing me to have to pull over on the side of the freeway (which is illegal) and then having to restart the car - this happened 6 times in a matter of 24 hours causing me to have to bring my Jeep to the dealership. I was told that there are more electrical issues that will nee dot be addressed but that the main reason for the shut off weas due to not enough oil in the car even though I just had an oil change and was not due for some time. Why would the car just shut off with no warnings? At least a low oil level light would be better than just shutting down.

The engine stalled and shut off with no warning lights or anything. The whole car shut off while I was driving. This has done it to me 2 times. First incident I was in the middle of an intersection and it died on me. I had to put the car in neutral and coast to safety. Got it to start back and drive to the dealership and they couldn’t figure out what happened. 2nd time I was merging on a highway from an on ramp and it just shut off with no warning. I had it towed to the dealer. I had oil and I had gas both according to the computer and dash of the vehicle. I was told the dealership that it was probably my fuel level sensor could be bad because the computer registers that I have fuel when I don’t have any. I was told it wasn’t covered under warranty and there was not any recalls at that time. I have read recent articles where many jeeps and dodges around my year model with the same issues and the engine stalling. It’s happening now to me and I am seriously concerned for my safety. This car is 3 years old and shouldn’t be having this issue. I feel like I was sold a lemon and it has caused me to think I will never buy another Chrysler made vehicle.

In April 2022, to my surprise the car first stalled on me while I was driving. The “pressure coolant high” was warning light that appeared on the screen when this happened. To start the car, I had to put it in park and then push the ignition button to get it started again. I continued my drive thinking it was a computer error because my coolant level was normal. Where it should be . A few minutes later, it happened again. And I repeated the same process to get it started. Knowing this was a serious issue , as I was driving with my child in the car, I made an appointment with the manufacturer to have it serviced. Three days later, the dealership “Nothing’s wrong the car. A terminal on the battery was loose and it’s ready for pick up.” A few weeks later, the intermittent stalling began occurring again. However, it’s frequency became increasingly worse. It would stall unexpectedly as I am driving on highways, main roads, side streets; while the start/stop option is on and when it is turned off. All dangerous factors. In addition, to the “pressure coolant high” other warning lights came on: “parking brake alert” , “check engine”, “battery”, “throttle failure”. Then, the engine failed to come on at start-up . I would have to push the ignition button multiple times for the car to start. I took the car back to the dealership on June 29th, 2022 for the second time. After, I having the vehicle for 3 days they informed me that my car needed “a new battery and an oil change.” I had to plead with them to run more diagnostics on the renegade because this is more than a replacement battery issue. My safety, my family’s safety, and the safety of other drivers are at risk because I never know when this car will stall on me as I am driving. Unexpectedly, I can get hit from behind by a driver on the highway who is not expecting me to stop out of nowhere. In researching, I’ve found that has been a known issue since 2015.

Was driving and entering onto a freeway going about 40-50mph. I was able to reach 60 mph on freeway. All of a sudden the thing where car shuts off when stopped at light that came on and then check engine light and then had to slow down however after slowing I was not able to go above 40 mph and had to try to get over to pullover. I let my car sit for a couple hours and when I put it in drive and accelerated my front end was smoking and extremely hot. When I was able to open hood everything was hot opened oil cap as I had a puddle of oil now under my car smoke came pouring out of where you put oil. Not sure if connected but the month prior my car was being fixed for a blower motor and at that time was leaking oil. I had an issue previously on a Chevy Malibu where blower vacuum motor broke and caused broke piece to go into engine fan which then needed engine replacement. It is currently being diagnosed however all they can tell me is that I need a new engine likely and they can’t get enough compression to diagnose cause. This is dangerous with the amount of oil lost in that short amount of time. It should be noted it was just in for an oil change 2 wks prior to the incident at the jeep dealership where I bought the vehicle.
