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.

Car has 3000 miles on it. Had 5 loaner cars it has been repaired over 5 times . Transmission bangs between 2 & 3rd shift and on the down shift coming to a stop. Hesitates going from 1st to 2nd then lunges forward. Brakes sq week always when backing up. Key stuck in ignition many times new started put in and new shift then new part in the transmission. Going for the lemon law. Made 5 payments been in every month for 5 months for repair.

researched before I bought, lots of things the salesman had no idea about yet because it was so new, but I knew. Love to drive it, people love to look at it, I actually have the 2.4L 9 speed auto 4x4 Latitude but that was not an option in the drop down only the limited had it on my choices here so I picked the limited but I actually have the latitude. I wanted a trailhawk but the reviews turned me off with the interior noise, rougher ride and gas mileage so I fell comfortably into a latitude. The design is awesome inside and out, interior is convenient and roomy for a small suv. I got the sand color and love it, lighter in person than on the web site.

I had a rocky start with this vehicle but I’m glad I powered through the first few months. It was completely dead 2x having to tow it to the garage. (Paid for by the dealer). Was pretty upset being that it was a brand new car. The problem turned out to be really minor. The battery had a bad connection. It had been checked before but the service supervisor took over and found the problem. Since the problem was finally uncovered and fixed I’ve had no problems at all with my Renegade. Plus all expenses were covered by the dealer. For me it was just inconvenience. So let’s call that a little blip. Buy one! They are great!

A great vehicle if you're living in Mountain Time

This car had good to very good reviews, so I purchased the trail hawk edition, and so far its been a generally positive experience. The Jeep corporation however, has limited this car with a few 'buts'. The car has decent gas mileage BUT it needs frequent fill-ups due to a small gas tank. The engine is fine for the car BUT the transmission is terrible, shifting into higher gears rapidly and giving a feeling of being underpowered. The only good news on that is the gears can be shifted manually from the shifter and that works well! The insturment panel is basic and informative, the Sirius XM radio is terrific....BUT the bluetooth took some time to program for and did not work that well? Finally, the off-roading ability of this car is excellent. We took it in the sand at Cape Cod National Seashore and it took on the sand dunes with no problems! I'm a bit apprehensive about trusting Jeep because of poor reputation for reliability and trade in value, BUT I would say we're off to a good start with no big problems so far.
