A hidden gem!
I bought a 2017 desert hawk thinking that it would be great for snow and would at least hold strong residual value. I'm blown away by how nice the car is. It tackles slick, hilly roads with no problem. It is exceptionally comfortable. It is loaded with modern technology. It's reliable and wows all of my friends. Don't believe everything you read, these are really top of the line in this price range.

Nice but buyer beware.
I have exactly what I want minus a/c didn't know I had to ask for it. It doesn't come with a spare tire. I have weird things happening with start up that Dealership would prefer to ignore and or do nothing about. It drives great. I like the 6 speed manual transmission. I haven't had a chance to use 4x4 yet but will appreciate it this winter. The seats are comfortable and the room in back is good for cargo.

DO NOT purchase a Renegade!!
I just got my 2017 Jeep Renegade from a Dodge dealer last August. It has spent more time in the shop than on the road. Not only did it need a new radio, it also needed a NEW TRANSMISSION, a new cooling fan, and plenty of other replacements. This car still does not accelerate or shift correctly and I can't even pull out onto a road without knowing that it might not accelerate enough for me to not be hit. The more I drive this vehicle, the more issues arise. Besides it's random overheating, this vehicle's dash also flashes randomly, which can be quite distracting when you are driving it. The gas mileage on these vehicles is everything except predictable, just like the quality of the car itself. If you don't want your bank account to be drained and your car to spend the entire time at the dealership, I would suggest going with a car besides a Renegade.

Suspension Failed / Car Totaled/Tie Rod Broke
Failure! Had 30,000 miles, suspension failed/tie rod broke in half, wheel housing split in half! Never used it for 4WD/Off road. Was driving on normal street, 45MPH, heard loud BANG. Front end lifted, vehicle uncontrollably veered to right...taking me into a pole. Vehicle was totaled. I fortunately was saved by airbags..knocked unconscious and am really never ever going to buy another Jeep Renegade. From 5 star to negative 2 stars. Notified Jeep and they take no responsibility. Did report to National Safety Board. Can't sue because I didn't die or rip my body parts off. This is an equipment failure...as mentioned by several highly qualified collision repair personnel. GOOD NEWS FOR ME! I ORDERED A FORD MAVERICK HYBRID.

Very surprised! Like a Miniature Wrangler
Handles great, acceleration is good, not a rocket but good. Not bad for a 4 banger. It feels tightly built, but comfortable and handles like a Wrangler 2 door somewhat. Lots of nice creature features. I love my little Renegade! It actually looks "beefy" next to my wifes patriot.
