Why all of the hate???

I've been reading these reviews and honestly I had to chime in. I have a 2015 Latitude 4x4 with the 1.4 turbo 6-speed manual. I have about 10,500 miles on it so far, have had it since February 2016. I've had it to the dealer two times so far, but only for oil changes ( I choose to change the oil every 5k miles by choice...but that's me). These reviews that people are putting out here are terrible, it's like they didn't test drive the vehicle. How could you not notice that the vehicle doesn't fit you well, or "blind spots"? To me this Jeep is a fishbowl, with big windows all around, so I don't know what blind spot they are referring to. I love this little Jeep, I'm getting 31+ MPG combined and have had 0 problems so far. Also as far as fitting in the vehicle, I'm 6'4" and I don't have a problem. That's about it, don't let the reviews here scare you off somehow...it really is a great little vehicle.

My Renegade is now back at the shop for the 4th time. They replaced the top end of my engine, transmission work, car locked me out (electrical). Now it's back in for engine and transmission problems. The dealership (Rockaway Chrysler Dodge Jeep Ram) is horrible. They are now on their 3rd Service Manager in the short time I've owned this lemon. I even spoke with people at corporate and they really aren't helpful either. On one occasion the car came to a halt when I was getting on the pkwy. I almost got crushed thank God for the alert truck driver behind me. The service depts favorite line is code upgrade. I can go on about how bad this jeep , but it falls on deaf ears.

I bought a 2015 Jeep Renegade Latitude 01/01/2016 and it has already been in the shop for issues. The first issue I have had is using a DriveSense device to save money on car insurance allegedly cause the computer to malfunction. I had 304 miles and in the first month of ownership it was in the shop more than it was able to be driven. Multiple cars to Chrylser complaint line and threats of wanting the car replaced caused Chrylser/Fiat to reimburse for the first month payment as it was only drivable for about 1 week out of the entire month. Removed the computer reading device no issues. It would be thought that this information would be shared from Jeep(Chrylser/Fiat) with Esurance to advise that the DriveSense is not compatible with the computer within this vehicle. Fast forward a month or 2, I had an issue with the shifting from Park to Reverse/Drive--it felt like I was driving an old manual car doing the "bunny hop" when driving--I thought it was due to not being "broken in." After going down the interstate attempting to merge with traffic, the RPMs increased and the MPH decreased--felt like it was going to stall out. Also this happened when making corners, the car felt like it was going to stall out completely. Trip into the dealer revealed that there was a pump that needed to be replaced. Come to find out the Transmission pump and valves needed to be replaced. Thankfully this was a warranty repair. Fear of this happening when there is no longer a warranty and the repairs are going to be extremely costly. Wishing I would have done more research on this vehicle and read more reviews. First Jeep purchase and more than likely the last one.

My 2015 Renegade has just over 6000 miles on it. This past week my key fob and the driver's door electronics stopped working. I can't use the key fob or the lock buttons on the doors. They all have to be locked/unlocked manually. When I called the dealership they told me it would be 3 weeks before they could see me. Today I went to turn on the car and... nothing. It clicks, the dashboard lights up (and gives me about a thousand error messages), the radio turns on but no start. Then they key won't come out of the ignition. The key won't even turn to the 'off' position. It's stuck somewhere between the 'off' and 'just the battery' positions. So, my car won't start, won't lock, keys are stuck in the ignition, AND the dealership is trying to give me the run around. Considering I've only had this car 7 months and I've already had more problems with it than I did my 7 year old Ford Fusion, as soon as I can dump this lemon I'm done with Jeep (and Chrysler).
