Please explain to me how a 1.3 L with "turbo" is more powerful (and reliable) then the former 2.4L which is a bigger engine without the designed to fail "turbo" crap? Someone, please explain....This is the exact same thing Kia did to the Souls from 2017-2019 then completely destroyed them with CVT garbage in 2020. Must be owned by the same group of inbred psychopaths.
I used to hate mine but love it. I have a 2017 altitude all wheel drive version great in the snow! I just changed my brake fluid after 20k miles did the tune up on it. Changed the oil and rotated my tires. Changed in cabin air filter and air filter. Just did 2 coates of wax on this and my 2016 ram 1500 sport
The 2016 Jeep Renegade Trailhawk SUV has a recurring power seat problem that prevents the use of the 8-way and lumbar functions. The problem causes the driver seat to freeze and lock into a position on the seat floor tracks. This could create a serious problem in the event of an emergency. The dealer service department is clueless on fixing the problem.
I like the Renegade especially with that new engine and the amazing exhaust rumble. The exterior styling is very handsome and I think that Jeep did a wonderful job, but for the highest trim having a starting price of 28k it is a little bit pricey. (and can I mention that it doesn't come with a power tailgate for 28k?) Otherwise it is a wonderful car especially for people who want a tiny off-roader.
Here in my country, until 2021, we used to have a few models offered with the 2.0 TDI, a turbo diesel engine with 170hp and 260 ft-lb, mated to a ZF 9-spd transmission. It is a beast, very strong and great when carrying more weight. Also, the torque is really good on yhe off-road. I grabbed mine new while it was stiil being sold. Not anymore, sadly. Cheers, my friend.
Me and my girlfriend are looking at thus car! I told her the reviews are the only thing you need to know! The dealer ship won't allow be honest with you. Thank you for being honest and keeping a great vid with great feedback, I'll hit that Subscribe button and keep a lookout for more vids! Thanks 💯
My 2016 Renegade (1.4L 6 speed manual turbo 4x4) runs like a beaute! I change her oil every 3k to 4k miles since I ride her hard. Did a muffler delete and dyno'd her. 2 sunroofs. Leather interior. My perfect San Diego vehicle :)
Yeahhhh I have a 4x4 latitude and my screen is half the size of the fwd, cheaper version I test drove. I Love my 2019 renegade, but, my 2 biggest complaints are the gas mileage and the teeny tiny screen I have that is about half the size of my phone.
I have a 2017 Renegade and the turn signal noise is SO annoying! If I'm on the phone through Bluetooth, the person on the other end can hear them loud and clear.
My man... finally hit Stetler up for one of these... my fiancé actually just took over shooting photos there now. She photographed this one but at least it was pdi’d for you. Lol
@@DaisySun4 Fiat is probably the most unreliable car brand in the world that isn’t exotic. The Jeep Renegade is literally a fiat 500 with a different body stuck on it.
I’m taking my Jeep back to dealer 2nd time , it’s only 5 months old purchased it branded new , had to get the radio replace the inner glass had a defect , the sales man mentioned someone also came in with the same issued. Replace with the warranty , but now I’m experiencing some shaking 😩. This is my first suv kinda vehicle I’ve always driven small sports cars . Took me awhile to learn that the jeep takes a while to pick up when driving , but the small shaking I feel not sure if it’s because it’s a Jeep thing . Does anyone have this issue ? Thank you 😊
I just got a brand new jeep renegade last week. I noticed a light shake when I'm slowing down n starting to pick up speed.I was wondering if its a jeep thing?
@Perry Bonner mine had a ton of computer issues. The first issue cropped up a few weeks after I bought it and they did a software update and pretty much that was the start of dealer visits every other week. Things like tire pressure system off line, drive not available, service 4wd system, electric parking break offline, etc all sorts of stuff. The transmission started to take a hit after the thing started shifting funny
@Perry Bonner yea I wanted to keep it but after it failed to start a couple times and then did start but couldn't shift out of park I knew something needed to change
Chris Ramsey well it’s not for everyone, I personally love my Renegade I think it’s a very capable SUV, and I think for 28 grand for it, it’s not even bad in this segment the top of the line Honda HRV goes for the same price.
dawfurby well that’s a totally different segment the Cherokee would be the competitor for the RAV4, the CH-R would be the competitor to the Renegade, and that’s just it your getting a fully loaded vehicle over a entry level I’d still take the Renegade over that.
How did Jeep deteriorate from wranglers to this...... I get this could be a decent vehicle but it just doen't look American anymore.... LIke a prius on steroids or some thing
Random Domino why come to the video if you don’t like the vehicle? I don’t get people like you, I think if I have no interest in a vehicle I don’t even think to search it lol.
@@tdrew337 it is good sometimes to express hate about an object. Sometimes people don't know anything about the vehicle and search it up to find out that it is a Fiat. You must also hate the vehicle. It is all good bro. It is like "What is that!?" and "ok lets move on now." Think of it as searching up the Pontiac Aztek again after a few years. People would say " still shit" and move on. Except the Pontiac Aztek is probably one of the coolest vehicles in the world. Hope we good bro.
Random Domino I think if you’ve owned and a Fiat and you voice your opinion that’s one thing but half these people just say that and haven’t even owned one and just say what people like to hear to try and get likes or just to bring negativity to a page, and that’s one vehicle I don’t like but I don’t search it up and talk bad about it, and no actually I don’t hate it lol, if you can’t tell by my picture on here I actually own a Renegade and I love it.
That is a Fiat! Not a Jeep. Not reliable. Fiat is one of the worst makers in the industry. "Offroading" is really driving on gravel roads with a few bumps here and there. This is a "sales" review.
I love my Renegade! Not everyone can afford the big Jeeps! My bro has a limited edition suped up Wrangler and he loves my Renegade 😊
kamikazemind327 how many miles does it have?
Great review guys! As a happy owner of a Renegade Trailhawk I finally I found a test that is spot on. This car is so underrated!
I take my '16 Trailhawk to Moab several times a year and it continues to impress me each time. I love my lil Jeep!
We had a sport with a 6 speed manual and the turbo 4 and it was quick.. I was impressed.
I have a Dodge Durango , just took it to get serviced and they gave me the renegade as a loaner . I feel like I’m driving in a lil truck gocart.
Lol 😆
Finally, they gave it a more powerful engine! Excited to see this powerplant in the compass!
The turbo 1.4 T for 2020 should be nice!!

And now you can get the same tiny engine for $37 grand in the Trailhawk......no freaking thanks.
Exhaust was cracking or what??
I Know right! It surprised me but that exhaust sounded pretty Sweet!
And that’s why I will be getting a 500X I was hoping this was a fiat built engine and I can hear that my friends it is 😎
What kind of model did you drive? Is that sportl, latitude or etc?
When the Fiat 500 shows up to a costume party
I’m so bummed that my 17 trailhawk only has the 2.4...
I have a sport 2019 and it’s fast asf it feels like it’s the turbo model I’m not lying can you opt for that engine in the sport ?
Any transmission issues?
What if your 6’4?
Nameless Vermillion I’m 6’3 287 pounds and I honestly love it and more comfortable in it
Abbas Alsalami oh nice! Thanks for the response. Definitely still considering this.
Nameless Vermillion as someone who’s an impressive 5’8, it’s great
@@namelessvermillion8188 did you get it?
The Jeep Renegade Sport Must Be The Base Model
They need to bring back the patriot
There is no excuse not to cancel the turn signal on the Renegade if it doesn't self cancel. It's so loud you can't ignore it.
You said Trackhawk while talking on the infotainment system accidentally hahaha
And the Jeep Renegade High Altitude is the top of the line
Shocking news about the engine oil consumption! If I knew I would have passed & bought another brand!
?
@@ZeusKingOfGods1 Jeep says it's ok for its 2.4 L. engine with 50K miles on it to consume 1 quart of oil every 750 miles!!! What a RIP OFF!!!
Still choose the jimny for its price and a lot of aftermarket support. If i would go jeep path, i would prefer the wrangler, hands down.
Different mind, different taste.😬

Who has this JeeP?
How is it on the highway?
This is basically a fiat 500 with off-road tires and 4wd
*4x4 Fiat Panda actually
Ranger_six Is a fiat a negative thing? I am current looking at the 2018 Renegade.

♥️♥️ Jeep Renegade is my favorite vehicle...
@Opiana Vallenwood You got good taste then.😁
Is it worth buying a Jeep Renegade S 2019 with 0 km for around 20000€?
You sounded like you said TRACKHAWK a few times.
Doesn't come with a spare tire,locking gas door,or CD player.
The full size spare tire is optional, but I agree it shouldn't on a real off roader
I couldn't care less about a CD Player
Love the review, but, btw, awd is very different from 4wd
My man... finally hit Stetler up for one of these... my fiancé actually just took over shooting photos there now. She photographed this one but at least it was pdi’d for you. Lol
You said track hawk a few times... wouldn’t that be nice in a renegade hava
Did i! Lol that would be nuts! 🤣
I've been told by so many that FCA quality is crap--but I like that jeep. What to do???
I'm right there with you. Love the Renegade's style, but FCA and their transmissions... Ugh
I have a 2017 sport and its freaking slow.
It's because it's a Fiat.

My aunt bought one of these last year. The engine failed at less than 3,000 miles. She had to replace the entire engine. Buy at your own risk.
Michael Cline where did she get it from?
Wouldn’t she still have warranty
@@kriztiano10 yeah but still....you dont want your engine failing like that.
$38k here in canada fo the trailhawk, should i just skip this and get a subaru forester?
No just get a 4Runner.
Brick Sprickly i would but with the gas prices we’re having here in canada, 18mpg in the city is the last thing i need.
@@RCGJR_ Fair enough!
Brick Sprickly 100% would go for 4runner, if money isn’t an issue, but for a regular labour worker joe like me 😢😢😢😭
Yes, go with the forester. I have a 15 Trailhawk with no issues but power and mpg are not what it says it will be.

There is one big problem with the Jeep Renegade; those TikTok addicts, if you know what I mean.
Are you shooting your video on slog? Colors are flat.
I hate car dealers so much
28,000 for the best one and it aint great either. Smdh 28 grand? Lmao
