How much do I like my 2018 Renegade?
This Renegade is a great ride. It sits a little higher than your average sedan, but is easy to see over the hood and easy to park.
Horrible
I bought a Jeep Renegade 4x4 2018 and it was absolute trash. It was constantly in the shop or having some type of issues. It looks nice on the inside and outside, but mechanically, it is awful. The transmission randomly jerks hard enough to throw your head into the steering wheel. The key fob does not work half the time to unlock the door or be connected to turn the vehicle on even after multiple key fob replacements. The headlights randomly shut off in the middle of the night. The sunroof only closes when it feels like it. These are cheaper vehicles and you might think you are getting a bargain, but they are made with very cheap parts. I ran across many many issues with this car, even after having many different parts replaced MULTIPLE times. Unless you want to stay in the shop or spend more money fixing it than it is worth, I would steer clear.

Don’t buy
I just got a 2018! Jeep Renegade and I have had it 2 months but the dealership has it now 3 weeks out of the two months I have had it . They say it’s the fuel pump and it will probably take another month to get the part . It kept stalling on me . Single mom with a child who is disabled

First time Jeep owner
This is my first time owning a Jeep, and I must say it's a comfortable ride, easy to handle which is great BUT has oil consumption issues! Uses 1 quart of oil per 1000 mls. Not good!! Jerks in low gear. From what I've read online both problems go together somehow. I bought it brand new, only 516 miles and had no oil the second day! How'd that happen!

At 20K miles, Capable and defect-free
At 20K miles, this little vehicle has been capable, reliable and without defect. It feels solid for such a tiny car. It's turning radius is unusually tight. It's driven frequently on non-paved roads and while never used to 'rock crawl', navigating washed out and heavily pitted surfaces hasn't been a problem. It has done well on sandy roads. For the more lead-footed, it's not a fast car nor responds well to quick acceleration - that's where the complexity of its transmission and little engine seems to get exposed. Otherwise, if you're not in a hurry the power is fine. It's been used to tow a small enclosed trailer (maybe a ton when fully loaded) and no problem - though it's not been towed on the highway up some multiple-mile steep ascent at altitude so it could struggle there. It can be parked in very compact spaces (like a crammed garage). The infotainment screen is a little clunky - it won't display the time if the radio is turned off, So it takes some menu navigating to get the time display moved to the center instrument console.
