Consumer Description
I LIVE OFF A BUSY HIGHWAY IN HOUSTON, TX. I FEEL I PLAY A GAME OF CHICKEN EACH TIME I ATTEMPT TO TURN OUT OF MY NEIGHBORHOOD IN MY JEEP RENEGADE. THE TRANSMISSION HESITATES, THE ENGINE LIGHT MAY OR MAY NOT COME ON. A HOST OF NEW ELECTRICAL MESSAGES MAY OR MANY NOT POP UP. I HAVE HAD LIGHTS STOP AND START WORKING. THE CAR CUT OFF WHEN MAKING A TURN AS THE CAR IS BURNING INSANE AMOUNTS OF OIL. IT IS NOT THE DEPENDABLE VEHICLE I HAD HOPED FOR. I UNDERSTAND SOME ISSUES HOWEVER THERE APPEARS TO BE A NEW ONE ALMOST WEEKLY. I HAVE HIRED A LAWYER TO INVESTIGATE MY CASE S THIS THE ABSOLUTE WORST VEHICLE I HAVE EVER OWNED. THE CAR JERKS LIKE SOMEONE IS SMASHING INTO THE BACK OF YOU WHEN GOING 15 MPH OR LESS. IT LOSES POWER AND HESITATES ON TAKEOFF. THE CAR SUFFERS FROM MAJOR ELECTRICAL ISSUES AND I FEEL THIS IS A CASH COW FOR THE MANUFACTURE TO KEEP OWNERS SERVING THEIR VEHICLES ON A REGULAR BASIS. SOMETHING NEEDS TO BE DONE ABOUT THIS. MANY OWNERS GIVE THE SAME COMPLAINTS AND THE SAME ISSUES, HOWEVER NO ONE SEEMS TO WANT TO LISTEN OR HOLD THE MANUFACTURE ACCOUNTABLE.
