The Renegade is a Jeep it rides like a Jeep. It has very little frills but overall it’s cute and worth owning. Buy one and have fun!

Jeep Renegade Worst Auto ever

The rare post from me: I’ve owned 20 plus cars and had at least that many rentals. The Jeep Renegade is by far, no question, hands down, the absolute worst vehicle. From mpg to comfort to transmission to clicky oil sounds when all gauges and dip stick say it’s full. It’s under powered which explains part of the mpg fiasco (I got better mileage in an F250). But the worst, pull your hair out it’s so frustrating, is the Radio/Nav. The console does this weird press the up arrow to go down in the menu - thought that was quirky during the test drive - but the Radio/Nav....If its not getting you lost, it’s playing music from some random station you didn’t pick. And it has this Love/hate relationship with my smart phone: it loves to place random calls when you plug in and hates when you would rather listen to radio while plugged in. Just stay away from this poorly designed, from top to bottom, inside and out, 2017 Trail Rated Jeep Renegade. This is the worst (add expletives) automobile in the universe

Jeep Abarth

iPhone the car two years. And it’s been reliable. It’s been in the shop a couple times for electrical issues in regards to the passive entry system. It also was in for the air-conditioner leaking. But other than that it’s a fun little car if you get the manual. I would avoid the automatic as that transmission has a lot of issues. It uses engine from the Fiat Abarth which is a lot of fun and there are a lot of aftermarket parts if you would like to tune in. Cruising around on the highway I get between 37 and 40 mpg.

I love almost everything about this vehicle. The few complaints I have are minor. There are no cup holders for the backseat. The two for the front seat are in the center console and mainly in the way. The center console is positioned too far back to be used comfortably. Other than those things; I love my Renegade :)
