2016 Jeep Renegade

Since I drive the Jeep off the lot 1/20/2017 with 9 miles on the vehicle I got home and saw that the passenger side daylight running light was not functioning. I called the sales rep and he informed me to bring in the vehicle to find out what was wrong. During the next six years of ownership, I have consistently had the same issue with the running light bulb being burnt out and the two messages of daylight running light out and parking light out. On 9/22/20 with 19,437 miles on the vehicle I paid $34.69 to fix broken wires and have two new bulbs installed. Then on 6/30/22 with 27,236 I paid $33.92 to replace the passenger daytime running light and parking light. Then on 8/10/22 with 27,858 miles on the vehicle I paid $319.82 to have the passenger side daytime running light and parking light bulb and the tech also replaced the driver's side running light socket and bulb because driver's side running light because it was making a poor connection. I addition the vehicle was at the dealership for four days running an electrical diagnostic. I picked up the car and no messages existed. Ten days later I called the dealership and told my service rep that the two messages of the daylight running light and the parking. On 9/14/22 with 28,510 miles on vehicle I went in to see the service manager and the service tec to ask how they would resolve this ongoing light issue and was told that they would need to complete more diagnostic and that I was looking at four hours of diagnostics at a cost to me of $600. Since I was at the dealership, I had an oil change and was given a failure on the light evaluation because the passenger side daylight running light and parking light were out. I got home and started researching the 2016 Jeep Renegade and came across dozens of complaints regarding the same issue I was having of the daylight running light and parking light out. I replaced the factory bulb with a led bulb and after that change I am only getting one message of parking light out

After work I got in my renegade Trailhawk and turned it on as usual to go home. Upon starting up the vehicle, warning lights came on telling me the headlights, tail lights, blinkers, daytime lights, tag lights, parking lights and back up lights were not working or out. I got out and inspected them only to see they were in fact all still functioning as should be. I got someone from the dealership to look at the issue and was told it would be alright, but definitely get the service department to look at it in the morning. I am having it inspected today by the service department and hopefully the issue will be resolved. As an update on this particular issue, I took the Renegade to the Service department the next morning and after just a few minutes I was informed this would be remedied within less than 15 -20 minutes. Apparently there was a new update to the system that was installed by the awesomely knowledgeable crew at Marshall CDJR and I haven’t had any of the same issues since.

Had this car since 2016,only 39,289miles,no problems whatsoever,and then I did this recall thing the 12th of July 2021,and today the 14th of July 2021 I have an engine light on,I have this horrible noise when I turn it on,I am so pissed and mad!!!really mad!!!Techs should not touch anything else than whats is called for to be fixed!!!i feel that when we take the cars they mess things out so we,the customers have to end up putting money since is free,they need customers to go back and spend on something that it didn’t needed it from the beginning!!!like I said 6yrs and not a problem,even have a multi point inspection sheet that it shows everything was great!!!i am scare to take back,because now I’m going to end up paying for their mistakes/fault/unprofessional work.I am so disappointed,upset,mad.I was planning to buy there again,but now I’m re thinking bout it!it won’t get fixed I know I will end up paying,but I want to make a complaint so that way at least it will pile with other people who end up having the same problems!why do Mechanics do that,or Techs do it!if is not broken,don’t fix it please.They should take an integrity test and not take advantage of the situation.

WHEN DRIVING, MY CHECK ENGINE LIGHT COMES ON. THEN THE SERVICE 4 WHEEL DRIVE LIGHT FLASHES AND I'M UNABLE TO USE MY 4 WHEEL DRIVE. MY CAR SHUTS OFF AT STOP SIGNS, ON ITS OWN AND THE AIR BAG LIGHTS COME ON. AFTER READING ABOUT THIS, IT SOUNDS LIKE IT'S A VERY COMMON ISSUE WITH THE RENEGADES. THIS IS SUPER DISAPPOINTING AND UNSAFE.
