Consumer Description
My Renegade fuel pump failed in a very unsafe manner without an engine light at only 42,000 miles, less than half the expected life of that component. I was driving on the highway and without warning I could no longer accelerate and I had plenty of fuel but no engine light came on and I had to glide to the right while cars were speeding around me before I reached 0mph. This is extremely dangerous and I'm finding it's very common in other models that aren't covered under the fuel pump recall for certain jeep renegades. My fuel pump was fixed and they said it was a common issue but I had no recourse to investigate beyond "it's not a recall". If this is happening to other Renegades not covered it will most definitely cause a serious crash as the engine is on but no acceleration.
