2019 Jeep Renegade

The display screen for the back up camera, heating/cooling, radio, and all other settings has stopped functioning. The screen comes on, but with flashing static lines in the screen instead of the proper display. This makes it very hard to reverse at night, and downright dangerous... the screen can't be turned off, so when you put the engine in reverse, the screen automatically comes on and can't be turned off. But the bright flashing static display it shows make it hard to use mirrors to see to back up. Other factors make the screen not working inconvenient, but this point makes the malfunction an actual danger.

Incident Jun 21, 2025

Screen has bubbling starting to appear on it, ghost touch is activating every button on the screen. Doesn’t stop when restarted and causes for navigation system to be hindered. This is a safety hazard because it is spreading across the screen and could potentially cause navigations and air conditioner system lost. When pressure is applied, stops momentarily.

Incident Oct 1, 2025

The console back up screen malfunctioning

Incident Sep 1, 2025

The backup up camera screen stops working when the car is warm. The screen divides into three columns. As it warms up the columns fail. They become electronically distorted beyond recognition and eventually go black. This backup camera screen is also the touch screen that controls lots of functions of the vehicle. Defroster, climate controlls, radio, hands free phone usage, car settings for lights, horns, and much more. The car is available for inspection upon request. There is a large blind spot behind the vehicle when backing up. We only buy a car if it has a backup camera. We do not ever want to back over a child. The camera and viewing screen must work to help prevent this. On this vehicle it does not work. Unacceptable. We called the dealership. They are familiar with the problem. It happens to many jeeps they said. They quoted us $1050 dollars to fix it. I went online and found that many people that had paid to have this repaired at the dealership, had the screens fail again soon after the repair. We have not had it repaired yet. Because we don't have confidence that Jeep has a viable solution yet. It has not been inspected by anyone yet. The problem starts to appear as a separation of the screen into three columns. One by one, those columns begin to fail. They fail rather quickly. As the vehicle gets warmer, the screen fails faster. Often the screen doesn't work at all when you first turn the car on. There have not been any warning signs or lights warning us of a failure. The failure started around August 2024. The vehicle had only 24500 miles.

Incident Aug 10, 2024

This is the 2nd time I am repairing the left rear light that controls the signal, brake and parking light. The wires are burnt to the bulb. There is condensation in the light. Not accident related. I note that there is a potential recall but not officially.

Incident Jul 3, 2025

Took vehicle to Litha Jeep in Missoula Montana. They failed to do the recall and made it worse. Now the un-fasened seat belt alarm keeps alarming even when the seat belt is engaged.They also scratched the riverside passenger door and foot long deep scratch I have no faith they can fix any recall correctly since they didn't even bother to test it

Incident Jun 12, 2025

Unconect system replaced once under warranty garblled screen goes black after 10 min. Backup camera does not work. No longer under warranty should be recalled many compliments on line 58000 miles

Incident Mar 7, 2025

The screen has lines in it and I can’t see my back up camera

Incident Feb 1, 2025

On 11/28/2024 my 2029 Jeep Renegade Multi Air Actuator failed we had just finished our drive when it failed. It spit oil everywhere and melted spark plug caps and cracked the value covers. We waited 4 months to get the part as it was on back order with thousands and we are still waiting on the value covers to this day. I PAY PAYMENTS monthly on a car I cannot drive and waiting on the parts because they are back ordered. I have spent thousands of dollars on parts and would hope thus would be a recall. If we were actively driving when it failed my family and I. Could have been badly injured.

Incident Nov 28, 2024

The radio screen is black and the back up camera is contacted with the screen. I would think that would be a safety issue. I have tried all of the resets. I took to a dealership yesterday and it will cost over $1600.

Incident Jun 12, 2024

My display screen started messing up and now it's completely black. It comes and goes from messing up to going black. I read that a lot of jeeps display screens are doing this and they're charging $1700- $2200 to fix it. Too many people jeeps are doing this around the world, it has to be a recall issue.

Incident Feb 1, 2025

The display for the backup camera is only showing a partial screen preventing full view of the rear of the vehicle when in reverse. The rear camera is a safety feature to prevent backing incidents protecting human and property damage. After research , this appears to be a common issue with the 2018 and 2019 Jeep Renegades. The problem started approximately six months ago August 2024 and I have not had it looked at by the dealership.

Incident Aug 1, 2024

The original Uconnect head unit is phasing in and out. Sometimes 1/3 of it will be completely black, other times all of it. I have seen hundreds of online forums that this is a reoccurring issue. This is a safety hazard due to the fact the back up camera is inoperative at this state.

Incident Nov 20, 2024

2019 Jeep Renegade Uconnect screen started displaying vertical lines on the screen and eventually goes black. Cannot use any of the screen controls or use the backup camera. I have seen owners of various year models on Reddit experiencing the same issues with no recourse from Jeep since they are out of warranty. Our only option is to buy an aftermarket head unit or pay Jeep over $1200 to replace it with something that will fail again

Incident Oct 1, 2024

The screen has completely glitched out. It is unusable and I have researched and found this to be a very common issue. These are not old vehicles and this should be covered under a recall.

On July 21, 2023, I was vigorously hit in the rear by someone. According to the police report, this person's airbags deployed. Unfortunately, my airbag, although hit extremely hard, did not. I was injured pretty bad and had to get treatment for over a year. I am still not completely healed. I was uneasy about my airbag not deploying and was sent a safety recall notice explaining why it did not. To resolve the issue, the manufacturer is offering free repair of my vehicle. This is not sufficed, and I demand pain and suffering along with medical help. The airbag not deploying during my accident resulted in increased injury. Please help me mediate with the manufacturer.

Incident Aug 21, 2024

My vehicle is experiencing the same exact engine issue that a technical bulletin has been issued for. The bulletin is for affected vehicle manufactured after 2021 which would qualify for warranty reimbursement. My vehicle is a 2019 with 54k miles on it. The problem started at appx 48k miles 4 months ago. The Bulletin number is TSB 09-006-23 (Low oil Pressure) When the check engine light turns on the car will drive normal then at times the jeep will not go over 3300 RPMs causing a lack of power to accelerate. I have experienced situations where I cannot accelerate while driving or accelerate from a stop while trying to merge on to a highway. The bulletin is issued for a large repair. Please review this failure of parts to trace back to the appropriate years affected. This could result in a vehicle crash.

Incident Jun 24, 2024

Incident Feb 9, 2024

About a week after buying the car, the back windows will roll down when they want(not all the time) a couple years into having the car, Turned car on one day, and the gas gauge would not properly tell me how much was in it. A few weeks later the main digital radio/ back up camera glitched out and now will not work at all. And then randomly the air bag light came on and stays on all the time not sure why. Seen problems like these in older versions of my Jeep and wondering if others have same issues.

Throttle body sensor, throttle body injector, and acceleration pedal are failing. I was in traffic and my car went into limp mode because of a code P2122 which is the throttle body sensor. My car did not want to go faster than 10 miles an hour.

Incident Dec 4, 2023

Come on wen start up

Incident Aug 1, 2023

Without warning, the Jeep will flash a number of error messages and the engine will immediately shut off. The Jeep can be stopped, placed in park, and it starts right back up as though nothing is wrong. This has happened a few times, usually without incident. However, a few days ago, it occurred while driving 70MPH down the interstate, forcing me to cross several lanes after the vehicle shut itself off, without power, in order to pull to a stop and restart the vehicle. This could have led to a serious collision at high speeds. Error messages that flash up include: high coolant temp, 4WD needs serviced, engine service light, etc. But as soon as vehicle is restarted, none of these error messages reoccur.

Incident Nov 23, 2023

Issue with brakes wearing and warping down after 10,000 miles after new brakes and rotors are replaced.

Incident Jul 1, 2023

2019 Jeep Renegade 4WD 65,000+ Miles at the time of repair, the Renegade was initially brought into the dealership for shaking and rattling noise from the front-end engine area. The dealership service inspection found the fan blade cracked and missing pieces and the fan was unbalanced, and recommended replacing the cooling fan assembly. Once they replaced the coolant fan motor and removed the front fascia, they found trans cooler lines leaking at the cooler joint and recommended replacing the cooler and lines. After all the parts arrived and with an oil change, the total invoice was over $3,000. The component that failed/malfunctioned is the cooling fan assembly. The vehicle in its damaged state was said not to cool and cause engine damage. The dealership confirmed the problem. The dealership inspected the vehicle. There were no warning lamps, messages, or any notifications of the problem it was brought into the dealership due to the sound/vibration of the engine. This fan issue is similar to the recall on all 2015-2017 Jeep Renegades that was issued after a lawsuit was dismissed because Fiat Chrysler (FCA US) offered to replace the cooling fans for free or reimburse Renegade customers for engine cooling fan repairs.
