2017 Jeep Renegade Brakes Problems

I am reporting a safety issue with my 2017 Jeep Renegade. Since approximately 2022, my vehicle has repeatedly stalled while I am driving. When this happens, the battery light and multiple warning lights come on across the dashboard. Messages such as "Shift to Park" appear, the steering becomes very difficult to control, and the brakes become hard to use. This creates a dangerous situation because the vehicle loses power while I am operating it on public roads. After the vehicle stalls, it often struggles to restart and may require multiple attempts before starting again. The problem has occurred on numerous occasions and has continued despite multiple repair attempts. I have replaced approximately five alternators and three batteries, but the problem continues. I also maintain my vehicle regularly and receive routine oil changes. When I contacted Jeep regarding this issue, I was told that a low oil condition could cause the vehicle to shut off. However, I advised that my vehicle receives regular maintenance and that the oil level was not low when these incidents occurred. The ongoing stalling issue has caused me significant concern because it affects my ability to safely steer and stop the vehicle. I believe this condition presents a safety hazard to myself, my passengers, and others on the road. I am requesting that this issue be investigated. In addition to the repeated stalling issue, I have experienced ongoing charging system problems. Despite replacing approximately five alternators and three batteries, the battery warning light continues to appear, and the vehicle has tested at low charging voltage while running. The problem remains unresolved despite multiple repair attempts. I am concerned that there may be an underlying electrical, charging system, wiring, or power distribution defect that has not been properly identified or repaired. I have repeatedly reported these concerns because the vehicle continues to lose power while driving.

ABS system issues: all warning lights come on - abs, traction control, parking brake (the yellow light as well as the red one. Red comes on an flashes then goes off), hill start, ect... Had codes ran that came back with several ABS related codes as well as engine codes leading back to the ABS system. Came up with right rear tone ring needs replaced. This is likely untrue as the lights come on and off leading me to believe it is more likely an issues with the speed sensor. This safety risk with this is that when the lights are on there is no traction control leading to it locking up an sliding even at low speed (few miles per hour when stopping at bottom of dirt/gravel drive way). There is also a power change lasting a few seconds while driving when the lights do go out. I have also had only a few times where the parking brake (E brake) will come on and stop me immediately when I first start to move forward.

Random warning messages and lights. Power steering fails, as does the power brakes. Usually, as I'm driving, it begins with airbag warning message. Then, the warning messages increase: Front collision, lane departure, blind spot, brake, power steering. While all of these things are happening I hear my doors lock, and unlock. Finally, I lose my power steering, and power brakes, like what would happen if the car has stalled. However, it is still running. Recently, after losing the power steering and brakes, I stopped and with the car still running, I could not put up my windows.

I have a 2017 Jeep Renegade Latitude. I bought it in 2020 and had it for 2 weeks when the engine blew up. There was a recall on the engine so Chrysler paid for the “new” engine. Two weeks after I got it back it started stalling out when I was driving down the road. I had a new starter put in it and now when it decides to shut down while driving the brakes come on, including the emergency brakes, it comes to a screeching halt, and the gear shift throws itself from drive into park. I just want to either get my car fixed or Stellantis to trade with me to make things right. It is very unsafe to drive. Especially when you don’t know when it is going to do this because it doesn’t happen every time you drive the car.

This car is a lemon and the entire car should be a recall. Shortly after having it I had to replace the tires , brakes , suspension. Then just a couple months ago I had a sediment in the coolant that is very rare and the only time the mechanic experienced that was on recall cars where (not sure if I am saying this correctly) dust is left when they cast the engine in production. And it takes years for it to build up and destroy your car. Now it’s at jeep in Dade city Fl and they said the engine is bad … after spending $950 on the sediment issue. Another $980 a couple weeks ago for battery , spark plugs , computer software update etc. now they want another $700 just to open my engine up and see what’s wrong. I am done. So as of now I have no car. Jeep only offered me $2k to buy it from me. And I still owe $12k. And I put about $3k into it in the last 5 months. This should be illegal to sell a lemon like this and leave a consumer like me more than $12k out. And from my research. Many others have the same complaint. Something legally should be done about this.

The vehicle instrument panel begins flashing multiple warning lights while driving and subsequently while stopped such as emergency brake on, key fob left the vehicle, fuel engine, TPMS, etc. All of these occur while the vehicle is moving. While coming to a stop the power steering pump also becomes inoperative, the shift indicator (PRND) is blinking, and it is impossible to move the shift lever. The vehicle will not shut off until the battery is disconnected. The problem seems to manifest when ambient air temperature exceeds 80 Fahrenheit and the vehicle has been previously operated.

The contact owns a 2017 Jeep Renegade. The contact stated while driving approximately 40 MPH, an unknown warning light started flashing on and off. The contact stated that the failure had become constant, and the warning lights were illuminated after starting the vehicle. Additionally, the parking brake had begun to engage independently. The contact stated while pulling out of her driveway, the parking brake independently activated, and the vehicle stopped. The contact had not taken the vehicle to a local dealer or independent mechanic to be diagnosed or repaired. The manufacturer had been informed of the failure. The contact researched online and related the failure to NHTSA Campaign Number: 17V485000 (Electrical System). The failure mileage was approximately 72,000.

While attempted to stop at traffic light. Brake caliper on right passenger tire only locked. Causing vehicle to swerve into oncoming traffic in parallel lane while I attempted to gain control. Vehicle was inspected by local brake and tire company on 12/7/22. It was explained by said company that for only one brake caliper to be affected to the point of needing to be replaced was extremely uncommon. Considering vehicle was purchased with 8 existing miles. Vehicle currently has 83,000 miles.

Dec 7, 2022

I purchased this vehicle used with 6000-ish miles on it, the front passenger brake system had started making a slight noise, somewhat scraping or dragging. When I brought in the car for a tire change or balance, the issue was brought up to me at BIG O Tires in Aurora CO, that an issue of the brake system has a scraping or wear that usually found in a much older vehicle or one with much more mileage. I cannot at this time give the exact explanation of the issue, but I recently had an issue with the front passenger tire with a slow leak, since the tire was replaced the issue with the scraping noise has returned. 2nd Issue: The headlamps have always had a weak beam, not giving a good illumination of the road area ahead of the vehicle even when the weather is clear. It barely reveals the road ahead of me. When it is raining or snowfall, it is extremely poor. I have considered bringing it in for a change in the headlamps to a higher amp or extreme high reflecting blue lamp color that I am encountering in high illumination from oncoming vehicles. But had feared: cost, and that it would not change anything or make other electrical parts of strain to function.

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

MANUAL TRANS 1.4L. FOR APPROXIMATELY THE LAST YEAR, I'VE GOTTEN AN INTERMITTENT 'SERVICE ELECTRIC PARKING BRAKE' MESSAGE. I NEVER HAD IT LOOKED AT, I DISCONNECTED THE BATTERY AND THEN IT WOULD GO AWAY. ALSO THE CAR COMPLETELY STOPPED TURNING OFF FROM ACCESSORY POWER MODE. I COULDN'T JUST ROLL DOWN THE WINDOWS, I HAD TO CRANK THE CAR OR THE POWER WOULDN'T TURN BACK OFF. RECENTLY HAD CHECK ENGINE LIGHT WITH CODE P0807 'CLUTCH POSITION SENSOR CIRCUIT 1 LOW' SHOWING. THE NEXT DAY, CAR WAS DIFFICULT TO START. IT TOOK SEVERAL TRIES PUSHING THE START BUTTON AND MESSING WITH CLUTCH BEFORE IT WOULD TURN OVER. I TOOK IT TO A SHOP (NOT DEALER) AND THEY COULDN'T FIND ANYTHING OR REPLICATE THE CODES AND TOLD ME IT WAS A GLITCH. NEXT DAY I GET THE EPB LIGHT AGAIN AND USED MY CODE READER AND IT WAS SHOWING P0807 AND ABS CODE C1220-86. SO I LOCATED SAID SWITCH AND UNPLUGGED IT, AND BOOM. ALL THE PROBLEM CODES POPPED UP AGAIN AND I WAS ABLE TO TURN THE CAR OFF LIKE NORMAL. I REMOVED THE SENSOR AND OPENED THE COVER ON IT. THE CARBON FILM INSIDE WAS MISSING A SECTION. TESTED WITH A METER AND THE SENSOR LOST VOLTAGE WHEN SWEEP ARM INSIDE REACHED THE BROKEN SPOT. THIS IS A PROBLEM THAT COULD LEAVE YOU STRANDED SOMEWHERE IF YOU DIDN'T HAVE THE TOOLS TO REACH AND JUMP OUT THIS SENSOR. AND OF COURSE CLUTCH PARTS ARE NOT COVERED BY WARRANTY. EVEN THOUGH THIS IS AN OBVIOUS FACTORY DEFECT SEEING AS IT'S ON THE INSIDE OF A SENSOR THAT I COULDN'T REACH WITHOUT REMOVING THE PANEL UNDER THE STEERING WHEEL.

AT 14,024 MILES, FRONT BRAKES WERE MAKING A GRINDING METAL TO METAL NOISE WHENEVER APPLIED. MY VEHICLE WAS INSPECTED AT AN INDEPENDENT AUTO REPAIR SHOP SINCE I WAS TOLD OVER THE PHONE BY THE DEALERSHIP SERVICE DEPARTMENT THAT BRAKES ARE NOT UNDER WARRANTY DUE TO REGULAR WEAR AND TEAR. (EVEN THOUGH I PURCHASED THIS VEHICLE NEW.) UPON MECHANICAL INSPECTION, MY FRONT ROTORS (BOTH SIDES) WERE DEEPLY GROOVED BUT MY BRAKE PAD WAS STILL AT 90%THICKNESS, ALTHOUGH THERE SEEMED TO BE SMALL CHIP AT CORNER OF BRAKE PAD. I AGREED TO HAVE BOTH FRONT ROTORS RESURFACED. THEN AGAIN, AT 27,475 MILES, THE LEFT SIDE ROTOR HAD SAME REPEATED WEAR PATTERN. AGAIN, THE LEFT SIDE ROTOR WAS MEASURED FOR MINIMAL THICKNESS AND RESURFACED AT AN INDEPENDENT AUTO REPAIR SHOP. PADS, AGAIN, HAD GOOD OPERATING THICKNESS AND REINSTALLED.I HAVE AN APPOINTMENT FOR AN OIL CHANGE THIS WEEK AND I AM BEGINNING TO HEAR THE GRINDING NOISE AGAIN! WHEN IS THE JEEP MANUFACTURER GOING TO ASSUME RESPONSIBILITY FOR FORMULATING A FRONT BRAKE PAD MATERIAL THAT GRINDS INTO THE FRONT BRAKE ROTORS?? ALSO REFUND REPAIRS TO CONSUMERS THAT HAVE INVESTED IN THEIR PRODUCT AND REPLACE (AT THEIR COST), NEW FRONT PADS AND NEW BRAKE ROTORS...JEEP, DODGE AND CHRYSLER-YOUR MANUFACTURING QUALITY IS DIMINISHING!!

PURCHASED 4/20/2017 THE PROBLEMS BEGAN WITH THE AC GOING OUT AT 10000MILES. THE DEALERSHIP DIDN'T WANT TO FIX IT TOLD US TO DRIVE WITH THE WINDOWS DOWN.

WILL ATTACH ALL REPAIR INVOICES. MOST RECENT! 5/6/2019, A MONDAY THE CAR WAS SCHEDULED DUE TO A RECALL ON THE FUEL PUMP AND THE AUTOMATIC START WOULD NOT WORK. ALONG WITH THAT WHEN THE CAR STARTED THE SCREEN WOULD FLASH WARNING SIGNS: EMERGENCY BREAK SYSTEM, AIRBAG SYSTEM WARNING. THE SERVICE DEPARTMENT CLAIMED TO NOT HAVE A LOANER. HOWEVER, FRIDAY 5/10/2019 I HAD NOT RECEIVED A CALL BACK AND ON MY WAY TO TAKE MY DAUGHTER TO SCHOOL. THE EMERGENCY BREAKS LOCKED UP WHILE DRIVING 70 MPH DOWN FM 1289 HEADING TO PORT O'CONNOR, TEXAS FROM PORT LAVACA, TEXAS. I WENT STRAIGHT TO THE DEALERSHIP AND DEMANDED A LOANER. THE VEHICLE IS CLEARLY A LEMON! HOWEVER LARRY TAYLOR, A SERVICE TECHNICIAN, TOLD US "I VALUE MY LIFE I WOULD NOT DRIVE THIS VEHICLE". PAUL PEREZ SERVICE DEPARTMENT MANAGER SAID "I WOULDN'T PUT MY FAMILY IN THAT VEHICLE." THEN THEY DEMANDED WE BRING THE LOANER BACK 5/17/2019 TO PICK UP OUR VEHICLE.

AS DRIVING OUT OF THE DEALERSHIP I COULD HEAR THE BRAKES SQUEAKING. MY FIRST THOUGHT WAS SINCE IT WAS A BRAND NEW CAR, MAYBE THE BRAKES NEED TO BE BROKEN IN. ALTHOUGH, NOW HAVING OVER 20K MILES, THE BRAKE SQUEAK HAS GOTTEN WORSE OVER TIME CAUSING MY ROTORS TO BECOME DAMAGED WITH DEEP GROOVES. THE CAR ALSO JERKS WHEN SHIFTING FROM 2ND TO 3RD. IT IS EMBARRASSING, ESPECIALLY WHEN PASSENGERS IN THE VEHICLE, FOR MY BRAND NEW, BARELY A YEAR OLD, CAR TO BE JERKING SO ROUGHLY. IF YOU ARE EXPERIENCING THIS SAME PROBLEM OR SOMETHING SIMILAR, PLEASE SPEAK UP SO THIS PROBLEM CAN BE RESOLVED. THERE ARE OTHERS WITH THE SAME COMPLAINT BUT HAVE NOT SPOKEN UP, NOW IS THE TIME.

I WAS SHOCKED BECAUSE THE CAR IS 11 MONTHS OLD WITH 19,152 MILES THERE IS NO WAY THAT I SHOULD NEED TO HAVE MY ROTORS AND BRAKES REPLACED. I RESEARCHED AND FOUND THAT THIS MODEL IS KNOWN TO HAVE BRAKE PAD ISSUES WHICH CAUSES THE ROTORS TO HAVE GROOVES. IT IS UNACCEPTABLE THAT I SHOULD HAVE TO REPLACE BRAKES THIS SOON.
