How this compares
563 complaints is 2.1 times the median 2017 model on this site and 1.8 times the median 2017 SUV. Among the 4 Renegade model years here it ranks 1st for complaints. Counts follow sales volume as much as reliability, so a truck that sells 700,000 a year draws more reports than a sedan that sells 200,000.
Complaints filed by year
165 complaints came in 2019, 2.3 times the year before. Owners file in waves when a problem gets press or an investigation, so a spike measures attention as much as failures.
