2022 Renegade Rv Valencia

Recalls, owner-reported complaints, investigations and safety data

Data refreshed

Owner complaintsComplaints are reports submitted to NHTSA by owners and drivers. NHTSA does not verify most reports before publishing them, and a complaint does not establish that a defect exists. Volume is influenced by how many of a vehicle were sold, how long it has been on the road, and how much attention an issue has received.

Safety recallsA safety recall is issued when a manufacturer or NHTSA determines that a vehicle has a safety-related defect or does not comply with a federal motor vehicle safety standard. Recall repairs are free. Whether a specific vehicle is covered depends on its VIN — a recall listed for a model year does not necessarily apply to every vehicle of that year.

InvestigationsNHTSA opens an investigation to examine whether a safety defect may exist. An open investigation is not a determination that a defect exists, and many investigations close without a recall. Investigations can, however, lead to one.

Recent owner complaints

Reports submitted to NHTSA, shown in the owner's own words

Filed Sep 25, 2023

Four out of six window latching mechanisms on the motorhome have failed. These are only mechanism to keep the windows closed during transit and failure can cause the windows to dislodge while on the road. It is a danger to personnel and other vehicles in the vicinity when the windows fail. Some of the failed windows are substantial in size, up to 1.5 feet by 2 feet. The windows have a design/manufacturing error and the closure mechanism housing separates due to rivet failure. The windows are manufactured by StateWide Windows and were installed on a 2022 Renegade Valencia. All four windows have failed in exactly the same way.

At no cost to the customer, Renegade will have the self-drilling screws removed and replaced with the correct lag screws. Describe what distinguishes the remedy component from the TSB component. Lag screws are made for wood backers. Self drilling screws are made for metal. Identify and describe how and when the recall condition was corrected in production. On 4/26/2022 Production became aware of the issue, all units affected that were still on the premises were repaired using the correct lag screw.

Manufacturers file copies of the bulletins they send to dealers with NHTSA. These often describe diagnostic or repair procedures for a known condition. They are not recalls: repairs described in a bulletin are usually only free if the vehicle is still under warranty or the manufacturer has extended coverage.
