What this page shows
Everything below is an owner-reported complaint submitted to NHTSA about the 2025 Renegade Vienna, grouped by the component NHTSA recorded on the report. These are not confirmed defects, and they are not recalls. NHTSA does not verify most reports before publishing them, and a category with more reports in it is not evidence that a part is defective.
Complaints are reports submitted by owners and drivers to NHTSA. They are not verified and do not establish that a defect exists.

Electrical
Reports naming the electrical system — wiring, battery, charging, control modules, infotainment and electrical accessories.
From owner reports, verbatim
1. The primary failure is the Vehicle Body Sealing/Compartment Integrity. Malfunctioned components include the Xantrex Freedom SW 3012 Inverter/Charger and the TBB Power DM1260 System Manager. All are available. 2. Safety was put at risk by water actively short-circuiting high-amperage battery power connections, creating a direct and severe fire hazard within the enclosed electronics compartment. 3. I am currently 900 miles from the dealership, they have advised me to contact Renegade which I have repeatedly with no response. 4. No 5. No Rain water is entering both compartments while driving and while stationary. It appears that less water enters the compartment while slide it out.
