What owners report
Infoentainent center screem going blank all the time they tell me that I need a "factory" radio replacement there been so many complaints about this problem and other with stellantis products. They know about it but refuse to fix it . There needs to a recall on all stellantis products. Like 2020 Renegade delamination of the screens been told by many mechanics this is a common problem. Blank screens are also common problem. But they refuse to fix it with recall. Many of us don't have 1700 to 2300 dollars in to fix this which will happen again. Unless we go other route. But if they know about this so called common problem why don't they fix it or pay for us to fix the problem our wit
-Timing Chain. Yes it is available for inspection. The jeep Renegade with the issue is a 2020 (in serv, in August 2020) -While driving the Timing Chain broke and we lost all engine power and power steering, barely making it to the shoulder of the road without causing an accident. I have meticulously cared for this car through oil changes, transmissions flushes, and general upkeep. A Timing Chain is supposed to last the lifetime of a vehicle. Not 50,000 miles. Instant loss of engine power and power steering could have cost us our lives while driving at 70 mph or someone else's by causing an accident. - Vehicle is sitting with Jeep dealership now. -warning light came on briefly before the cat
Infotainment system is highly defective even after replacement. The screen goes black, shows white lines and you're left unable to use your backup camera! After doing research this problem stems all the way back to 2016 renegades with the same system.
Dashboard screen is out. I am unable to use the back up camera feature nor any Dashboard feature.
I was in an head on colisin and neither of my front airbags deployed
