| Description of the problem | 2019 renegade owner had software issues since day 1 - chronic issues are a distraction & unsafe & yes i crashed the car due to that distraction. Heated seats shut off for no reason. Remote services wouldn't work radio had to be replaced & now heated seats stay on but now my stop n go doesn't work at all. Car is in shop all the time with no real resolution - i am only trading problems. Car hesitates when taking off from a light or from a stop front windshield major blind spot. Doors don't stay in an open position when getting in & constantly fall shut on me & my baby when trying to load him into car. Chrysler has been notified & they don't remotely care about my issues nor do they see that all my dealer visits as unacceptable. I didn't buy a new car for constant dealer visits & now i am stuck in a unsafe unreliable vehicle that chrysler won't buy back & the negative equity is so bad on this vehicle that i can't trade out of it without a major loss. I have been in many other jeep vehicles that have some or all of the same software issues as mine. Worse buy ever! |
