Least reliable vehicle I've owned

I regret buying this Jeep. Nothing but issues. Less than 9000 miles and was in shop for 2 weeks. Can't sit comfortably in front with carseat in back, unless you're short. Worst vehicle I've had in my life.

I love my new Jeep Renegade

I love the new Jeep Renegade. Looked at several cars before choosing the Renegade. Its a bit boxy, but has great room inside. Drives like a refined Wrangler.

Great little 4x4

All in all a great vehicle, great on gas, good performance...etc. really the only issue i have had with it is the check engine light comes on on long trips, and the Service department at Rothrock in Allentown disrespected me several times and still hasn't fixed the problem, that isn't the vehicles problem, i love my little Renegade all besides that!

Now a Jeep fan after owning the Renegade.

My Jeep Renegade Latitude is my first Jeep and I became a fan. The most surprising aspect is how well it handles in high speeds. Although it has some of the classic Jeep lines, it has no right angles, which makes it surprisingly aerodynamic. It's roomier than it looks. Comparable to the Cherokee. I've driven for Uber and Lyft and I get compliments on the car on every ride. One of the "best bang for the buck" vehicles on the road today. Wish there was an hybrid or electric version of it, but it does very good mileage. Mine is a 2.4l and it runs between 26 and 28 on a mix city and highway.

Loving my Jeep

I am loving my Jeep. I appreciate the front leg room for driver and passenger. As someone who has hip and back issues one of my requirements was adjustable power seat.

Not a good traveling car

It is not a good traveling car and horrible on gas. I think the interior is not the best, carpet always comes up . I pay a lot in gas, it is horrible on gas.

Small SUV for a big guy

My initial opinion of this car was blown to pieces once I test drive the renegade. I figured it was another super compact suv and I?d feel like a sardine. I?m 6-2 and 275, I have more room driving this car than I did when I test drove the Cherokee, and more than I had in my GMC Terrain. This car gives me the compact fuel efficiency, but also the space to feel comfortable, 4WD, tight handling and small turn radius make the car more fun to drive. Haven?t encountered any issues, and hopefully won?t for a long time. It?s worth a look if you?re in the market for a small suv.

It's a trustworthy vehicle and I would buy another. I love the feeling of not having to worry about fixing anything. I would recommend it
