NHTSA Complaint #10925497 — 2016 JEEP RENEGADE

MY TRACTION CONTROL LIGHT WILL START BLINKING AND CUT MY ACCELERATION, WHILE TURNING LEFT SPORADICALLY WHETHER AT A COMPLETE STOP OR STILL MOVING AND NORMALLY JUST ON DRY ASPHALT. I HAVE HAD THE VEHICLE INTO THE DEALERSHIP 3 TIMES. THE FIRST TIME WAS FOR 2 DAYS, AND THEY SAID THERE WAS AN UPDATE, THIS DIDN'T FIX THE ISSUE. THE NEXT TIME WAS 1 WEEK LATER FOR 5 DAYS WHERE THEY DROVE MY VEHICLE AND ADVISED THEY COULD ONLY PRODUCE THIS INCIDENT ONCE, AND SAID THE PROBLEM WAS WITH THE ABS SOFTWARE HAVING THE WRONG DOWNLOAD.THE DEALERSHIP ALSO ADVISED THAT THE VEHICLE DID NOT KNOW THERE WAS A PROBLEM BECAUSE THERE WAS NO ERROR CODE IN THE COMPUTER. THE 3RD TIME WAS 2 DAYS AFTER I PICKED UP, AND THE VEHICLE WAS KEPT FOR 7 DAYS, WHERE THEY DROVE MY CAR ALL WEEK AND WERE NOT ABLE TO REPLICATE. AFTER HAVING THE VEHICLE BACK FOR 4 DAYS IT STARTED UP AGAIN, AND NOW DOES IT ALMOST EVERY DAY. THE DEALERSHIP ADVISED THERE IS NOTHING THEY CAN DO, AND JEEP/CHRYSLER WERE NOT HELPFUL EITHER. I HAVE NOTICED NOW WHEN I HAVE ANOTHER PERSON IN THE FRONT SEAT THAT THE TRACTION CONTROL WILL START BLINKING AND CUT THE ACCELERATION GOING RIGHT. I HAVE ALSO NOTICED THAT YOU HAVE TO BE AROUND 20 MPH OR HIGHER AROUND A CURVE FOR THIS TO HAPPEN WHEN YOU ARE NOT AT A COMPLETE STOP.
