Love my jeep renegade, you will too.
Got this car a few months ago and I love it. Comfortable seats, great gas mileage, and plenty of trunk space make it great for road trips. Backup camera is very helpful. Bluetooth features all work well. Turbo makes acceleration very smooth. Air conditioning worked great even in 120 degree temperatures.

I love the Bluetooth stereo system. The speakers are very good quality.
It's my daily driver. I love that it's never given me problems and is very spacious for my dogs and kids to travel with me. The radio and stereo systems works magnificently and the Bluetooth never glitches. It's great on gas, a full tank only costs less than 40 dollars to fill up.

It is a smaller SUV. Perfect for small families.
I love my Jeep Renegade because it is sophisticated and adventurous at the same time. I can use my car for an everyday driver as well as take it on trips. I also love the Jeep brand.

Handles very well in all driving conditions especially wet and snowy weather.
Provides everything that I need in a vehicle. Like the comfort and space within it. Smooth riding. Handles very well in all driving conditions especially snow.
accountCircle Debbie D
Comfortable ride and handles nicely. Low maintenance costs.
Like the way it drives. Have had no problems with it. Get reasonable mileage. One thing that could be better is more space in hatchback. If 4 people in car not much room for luggage.

Jeep renegade is amazing!
Very smooth ride, and also very comfortable to ride in for long periods of time! Haven't had any problems yet! Love that I am still finding some of the jeep ‘easter eggs’ within my car! Has cruise control, emergency brake, a button to press for four wheel drive, and a good radio.

My car is black with black rims. The inside is black with a red trim.
My car is beautiful on the inside. I fell in love with the red trim on the seats and dash. I have drove a regular sport renegade and it seems like the trail hawk is faster. My speakers are louder than my last car. I just do not like that my screen is so small.
accountCircle Maura M
Very good car! Few issues. You get a lot of bang for your buck.
It was rated #2 for safety but you have to be careful because the transmission can cause issues. I love it because of the detail within the car and how smoothly it drives. It pulls a big load. It has enough room to store my snowboard and camping gear. The jeep has not needed any fixing up yet.

Expensive vehicle and cheaply made
Cheap electronic components. Expensive repairs. Poor acceleration. Only thing positive is gas mileage

Service Engjne- not reliable I was sold a lemon
I have a 2015 Jeep Renegade and I have had nothing but trouble from the car since I got it. It breaks down every three months almost. Now I don’t have a warranty on my car and have to pay out of pocket for repairs. I can’t afford it at all. I am a mother with three kids and I don’t have money for constant repairs. I was sold a lemon.

A Reliable, Compact smooth ride
Very reliable, compact vehicle. Does well on various terrain and runs well. Smooth ride. Not too big or too small, just the right size

This is my review of the 2015 Jeep renegade.
The vehicle has lots of recalls and malfunctions. The gas mileage sucks. There is no room on the interior. Constant fear it will break down with me. No reliability in this vehicle at all. I have heard that newer models are better. I haven't really heard anything good about Jeep lately to ever buy another Jeep.

No I would not I have mine in the shop with four others with the same problem for the last four visits to the Martin swanty Dodge dealer on Andy Devine in Kingman Arizona this vehicle is a piece of s*** and they will be buying it back at full dollar value
accountCircle Elizabeth S
Many problems in 2 year span.
I have had the car for about 2 years. Within about 2 months of ownership I started to have many issues with the transmission locking up, the key sticking in the ignition, vehicle dying while driving, ac leaks, engine problems, etc. I am a fan of jeeps but I believe this one was a lemon in disguise.

2015 jeep renegade? Computer? Issue.
I have an ongoing issue that all of the alarms on the dash go off at on time and my car will shut down. It will not shut off or shift once it is put into park. To turn off my car, I have to disconnect the battery. I have brought it into the dealership many times and they cannot find anything, 3 of the times, it had to be towed.

Very fun reliable SUV with manual transmission and 4wd.
Manual transmission is the way to go. It is fun to drive, very comfortable and spacious considering it is a small SUV. I have not had any problems with the electronic functions. The backup camera and Bluetooth phone option are very handy. It has been very reliable and drives great in rain and snow.
accountCircle Jennifer C on June 25, 2021
The car is wonderful and I will always stick with the jeep.
I absolutely love the vehicle I drive. It is amazing on road trips it has good mileage and it is safe for my family. I love the color of the car it is very unique and I would recommend this car to anyone. I would always buy a jeep and I probably would buy another renegade.

Pros from Owners

likeFilled Armand E.

Pros of the vehicle is that it has setting for different terrains so it is very good for the outdoors and it has 4 wheel drive so you will not get stuck in the mud or snow to easily. It is honestly pretty great on gas I spend about $60 a month which is a lot better than 60 a week.

likeFilled Jill R.

The model of Jeep handles great, it gets good gas mileage and very responsive as well as having all the extra features like heated seats, backup camera, adjustable 4WD (sand-snow-mud) and heated steering wheel.

likeFilled Maria O.

It has great gas mileage! It looks small on the outside but it is very roomy on the inside. Tow package to pull trailers. Leather seats that are easy to clean. Bluetooth radio and aux port. Backup camera and blind spot alert. It has automatic headlights. 4X4 that is automatic or you can lock it. Push to start.

likeFilled Savannah F.

Pros is the gas mileage. It gets up to 30.3 Miles to a gallon which is really good for jeep. It is also very spacious for the size of the vehicle. It also has 4 wheel drive which is ideal for the area I live in.

likeFilled Maurice M.

Very comfortable I have driven it both local and highway and it handles very well also it is not a large SUV but does carry a lot for its size. The moon roof is also very good. You cannot go wrong in my opinion if you want a compact SUV.

likeFilled Frederick A.

I really like the versatility and the good gas mileage the vehicle is great..But I wish it was a little larger inside for hauling items that I use to go to the beach. And when I go on road trips to various destinations.

likeFilled Hinde M.

Size, comfort level, I enjoy cruising in it. Fun, sporty. I love how it makes me feel. It is a newer shape and model and innovative. I am very happy with my decision and I hope more cars like it come out in the future.

likeFilled Jeremy B.

It is small but extremely roomy. It is great on gas and it is a lot of fun to drive. The windows make it very easy to see out, as there's not a lot of blind spots in this car. This car is very easy to handle, and you never feel like you are out of control while driving it.

Cons from Owners

dislikeFilled Armand E.

Cons are that it is not the fastest car. Another thing is how quickly it runs out of gas and at times it takes a while to warm up. Another con is that sometimes the language will revert to Italian. It is an easy fix but still is a very annoying thing that can happen not too likely.

dislikeFilled Jill R.

It is a little boxier than I am used to. My personal model is white and I have never been a fan of white. There is not as much leg room in the back seat as I would hope. The blind spot on the vehicle is harder to see than in my last car.

dislikeFilled Maria O.

I do not think there are any cons. Unless you are used to a really big SUV. It has a smaller engine and is only 4 cylinder. It does not come with a spare tire. The seat belt reminder is the only thing that annoys me it is very sensitive! It will sound if I put my purse on the passenger seat or if my dog sits there.

dislikeFilled Savannah F.

It is very low to the ground for a jeep which is not ideal. The fabric on the inside is cloth which is hard to keep clean. And the lights are not automatic they are manual which can be an issue if you are forgetful.

dislikeFilled Maurice M.

There are very few cons to the jeep renegade latitude. The main one and my biggest complaint has been it get poor gas mileage it is size if you have a tall driver makes it very tight for someone who has to be sitting behind the driver.

dislikeFilled Frederick A.

I wish interior space was bigger for hauling beach items. Also when going on road trips it would be nice to have a little more room. I really like jeep products and have had multiple vehicles made by jeep.

dislikeFilled Hinde M.

The engine wears quickly. Other than that it is pretty good. At times I do not feel safe as it is the first year of the make and model of its kind. Overall it is been a good decision but who's to say down the road.

dislikeFilled Jeremy B.

It is a jeep, so the name is not always trustworthy. And for good reason. We have had two recalls for manufacturing issues and our car is not even 5 years old. A lot of the exterior of the car fell apart two months after buying the car new. For example, the sun visors broke, both of them, two months after we bought it. Our keys occasionally will stick in the engine and we cannot get them out, so we will have to leave the keys in the ignition even if we're in a place that is very crowded.
