NHTSA Complaint #10810553 — 2015 JEEP RENEGADE

2 WEEKS AFTER BUYING MY BRAND NEW RENEGADE, IT COMPLETELY SHUT OFF ON THE FREEWAY & I HAD TO COAST OVER 3 LANES OF TRAFFIC TO THE SHOULDER. NOT ONLY DID MY JEEP LEAVE ME STRANDED, I COULD HAVE BEEN RAN OVER AT 80 MILES AN HOUR. JUST BEFORE SHUTTING DOWN, MY CAR WOULD NOT SHIFT GEARS AND BEGAN TO LOSE SPEED EVEN THOUGH THE RPMS WERE HITTING THE RED MARKS. IT WAS SERVICED, AND GIVEN 2 SOFTWARE UPDATES. A WEEK LATER, THE SAME THING HAPPENED. YOU CAN PUSH THE GAS PEDAL TO THE FLOOR, BUT THE VEHICLE DOES NOT ACCELERATE, INSTEAD IT DIES, HOWEVER THE RPM'S GO UP AS HIGH AS THEY CAN GO BUT MY CAR WON'T SHIFT GEARS. NOW IT IS IN THE SHOP (FOR OVER A WEEK), SUPPOSEDLY GETTING A NEW FUEL PUMP, WHICH I DO NOT THINK IS THE ULTIMATE PROBLEM. I HAVE READ ABOUT THE 9 SPEED AUTOMATIC PROBLEMS AND THIS IS EXACTLY WHAT KEEPS HAPPENING. AFTER PUTTING ME IN DANGER TWICE, I FEEL CERTAIN AS SOON AS I GET MY NEW FUEL PUMP AND DRIVE HOME, THIS WILL BREAK DOWN AGAIN. I HAVE HAD THE JEEP ONE MONTH, BRAND NEW.
