2018 Jeep Renegade

I was turning into a residenr parking lot and the engine stopped running as I was turning. Fortunately no car was oncming and there was no accident in my case. Could not get my vehicle started. It had to be towed to the local Jeep dealer where they determined the fuel pump failed with just 61k mileage. I was told that the recall was for just vehicles using E85 fuel . But have discussed with other owners of standard fueled vehicles who had similar issues with their vehicles. I hope this is looked into for future safety issues to be resolved.

The contact owns a 2018 Jeep Renegade. The contact stated that while driving at various speeds, the vehicle stalled for several seconds and then restarted. The contact stated that prior to the vehicle stalling, while stopped at a traffic light, several unknown warning lights illuminated and then turned off. The failure was intermittent but had become a recurring failure and occurred whether driving in a straight line or turning left or right. The vehicle was taken to an independent mechanic, and an alternator check was performed, and the contact was informed that the alternator was functional. The contact stated that the failure reoccurred, and the battery was replaced; however, the failure persisted. Recently, the check engine and battery warning lights were illuminated and remained illuminated. The manufacturer was not informed of the failure. The failure mileage was approximately 79,000.

Touchscreen radio delamination issue renders touchscreen unusable to use or control any and all settings, Bluetooth unresponsive, SiriusXM and FM radio random station change with no control, maps and Gps, phone, emergency services alerts, climate control, safety settings, interior and exterior lighting controls, all no longer accessible or functioning.

UConnect screen is out. Started glitching but now it is completely black yet the touch part of it is responsive?? Now if only i could remember EXACTLY where everything is located and in what order.. haha. Not. Also I have no backup camera view, not being able to see what temp my ac/heat is at or which mode it is on. What time is it even? How do i turn on the passenger heated seat for my daughter in the mornings and evenings when the temperature outside is below zero? How do i know where my next turn is when i am driving to a destination with my children and this is the first time i have ever seen, much less been on this road? It sucks!! And my android auto is no longer an option... music?? The safety i could put myself and others in by having to look at and use my phone to change songs, artists, podcasts, make a call or change a gps route... not cool! Also the "fog light" running light on my passenger side does not work at times despite having changed the bulb, wiring, even though the fog light works just fine? And i have often felt like my transmission was slipping when accelerating from stop signs or at other times and that is insane considering the vehicle had less that 50k miles at the time. I want to love my Jeep like i once did yet all this has me questioning whether i would even ever purchase another Jeep. I also feel like my front end is loose and there is a wobbling and have had the mechanic check several times. It doesn't sound safe or feel safe. Yet what is truly most important is that i want and need my current Jeep to last me but all these issues kinda scare me to be honest. I want my screen back!!! I want my light to work at all times! I need my transmission to be wonderful!! I don't even have 95k on my Jeep yet!!! I am praying that submitting this report will help out in some ways.

The contact owns a 2018 Jeep Renegade. The contact stated while driving approximately 45 MPH, the vehicle lost motive power. There was no warning light illuminated. The vehicle was able to be restarted. The vehicle was taken to the dealer, where it was diagnosed with engine failure. The contact was informed that the engine needed to be repaired. The vehicle was not repaired. The dealer advised the contact that if the engine was not repaired, to monitor and check the engine oil levels regularly. The manufacturer was made aware of the failure, and a case was opened. The approximate failure mileage was 82,425.

Description of Incident / Failure The vehicle’s center infotainment/display screen malfunctioned and became partially inoperable. The left side of the screen displays vertical colored lines, while the remainder of the screen is dark/black and unresponsive. As a result, the backup camera display is no longer visible, and touchscreen functionality is severely limited or unusable. Component or System That Failed The failed component appears to be the infotainment touchscreen/display unit, including the integrated rearview (backup) camera display system. The vehicle and the defective screen are currently available for inspection upon request. Safety Risk This failure created a safety risk because the backup camera is required for safe reversing, especially when pedestrians, children, or objects may be behind the vehicle. Without a functioning screen, visibility is significantly reduced, increasing the risk of a collision, property damage, or injury while backing up. Reproduction or Confirmation The problem occurs consistently and has not resolved on its own. Each time the vehicle is started and placed into reverse, the screen remains malfunctioned and the backup camera does not display.
