NHTSA Complaint #11254560 — 2018 JEEP RENEGADE

SINCE 21000 MILES (FIRST INSTENCE) WE HAVE HAD ISSUES WITH THE CAR SHUTTING OFF , AND LOSING ALL POWER TO THE GAS AND BREAK, ALMOST CAUSING A WRECK. I WAS TURNING LEFT AND THE ENGINE SPUTRERED, THEN AS THE WHEEL STRAIGHTENED UP IT COMPLETELY LOUSY ALL GAS, AND BREAK FUNCTION AS IF IT WAS NOT IDLING. ABOUT EVERY 3-4 WEEKS AFTER IT WOULD STALL, BUT NOT LOSE COMPLETE CONTROL. WE STARTED TO NOTICE IT WAS USING EXCESSIVE AMOUNTS OF OIL, AFTER ACKNOWLEDGING FIRST COUPLE ISSUES. WE ARE CURRENTLY HAVING IT LOOKED AT, AS THE ELECTRICAL COMPONENTS WOULD NOT ALLOW US TO START THE ENGINE AT ALL, WE ARE CURRENTLY AT 30,000 MILES. CAR IS 1.5 YEARS OLD , PROBLEMS AROSE 5 MONTHS AGO.
