A way to ruin driving!

This car in the past year has given me more problems then ex-boyfriends. My tires decide to never stay inflated, my engine shuts off by itself, the bluetooth doesn't work, HORRIBLE BLIND SPOTS, and the acceleration jerks. I originally wanted the Jeep Liberty ,but of course when I buy a car Jeep comes out with their crappiest model. I am also living in 2 states currently NY and AL so I get both city driving and back roads and for both it sucks. As you can tell i'm pretty salty.

I owned a 2004 and a 2012 Jeep wranglers, never had any problems. I bought a brand new 2017 Jeep renegade and what a disaster it has been. I’ve had knocking sounds in the front end That I have to take it In for, electrical problems in the winter, the windows wouldn’t open and I couldn’t unlock the doors. My stereo would just black out for no reason. The paint from The lettering fell off. It’s Not equipped with a spare tire. This car was cheaply and horribly made and one of the worst pieces of junk I have ever driven despite the hefty price tag. Jeep quality has really taken a dump.

Bought my Renegade new in 2017 & have 40K miles now w/not a single problem yet. Only work has been regular maint. Have done 7 oil changes, front brake pads & rotors at 35K ($100 for the kit at Rockauto), & new tires at 39K ($50 each at Simpletire.com). Still on orig clutch, which shifts wonderfully. The impressive Fiat 1.4T is the little motor that could. Smooth & efficient, yet snarkly & very lively when you put your foot down. Ample acceleration & passing power while averaging 26 mpg in mixed driving. If you've only tested this vehicle with the auto trans, you've missed out. The 6-spd manual model is a hidden delight.

Went to dealership requesting a Toyota, Honda or Nissan. Salesman asked that I test drive the 2017 Renegade Trailhawk. Did not want to like it......but I loved it. Nice height, comfortable front seating, easy navigation option and cute as ever. This is my first SUV and I love it!!!! Have never written a review before but this is news worthy!!
