There are 5 owner-reported visibility & wipers complaints for the 2015 Jeep Renegadein NHTSA's database. These are unverified consumer reports and may not reflect confirmed defects.
THE DRIVER AND PASSENGER VISORS HAVE BOTH LOST THE ABILITY TO STAY FLUSH WITH THE CEILING OF THE VEHICLE. WITH THE MATERIAL OF THE CLOTH ON THE CEILING I HAVE NOT BEEN ABLE TO GET ANY TAPE TO SAFELY SECURE THE VISOR. THE VISUAL AREA THAT YOU ARE ABLE TO SEE OUT OF THE VEHICLE IS GREATLY IMPAIRED. I WAS QUOTE A $400-$500 REPAIR FROM THE DEALERSHIP TO FIX ONE. WHEN IT ORIGINALLY HAPPENED TO THE PASSENGER SIDE. I HAVE UPLOADED PHOTOS OF THE DRIVERS SIDE HOW IT SITS NOW, PUSHED FORWARD, AND IT HELD FLUSH WITH HOW IT SHOULD STAY. I WAS DRIVING WHEN T ADJUSTED THE VISOR AND IT LOST TENSION.
THE DRIVER SIDE SUN VISOR DOESN'T STAY UP. THIS ISSUE FIRST HAPPENED ABOUT A YEAR AGO. I DEALT WITH IT FOR SEVERAL MONTHS BEFORE FINALLY BUYING A NEW ONE. HAVING REPLACED IT ONCE ALREADY, I KNEW THIS LIKELY WASNT GOING TO BE A RECALL ISSUE, EVEN THOUGH THOUSANDS OF PEOPLE COMPLAIN ABOUT IN JEEP FORUMS EVERY YEAR. NOW, 4 MONTHS AFTER REPLACING IT, IT HAS FAILED AGAIN. THERE ARE MULTIPLE THINGS I DONT LIKE ABOUT THIS VEHICLE, BUT NOT BEING ABLE TO SEE OUT THE WINDSHIELD WHILE DRIVING BECAUSE THE VISOR IS CONSTANTLY FALLING DOWN IS A SERIOUS ISSUE.
AFTER 7 MONTHS AND 7000 MILES OF OWNERSHIP, THE FRONT WINDSHIELD CRACKED. DRIVING IN EARLY SUNDAY MORNING CITY TRAFFIC A 24" CRACK DEVELOPED ACROSS THE WINDSHIELD. THE CRACK APPEARS TO START AT THE EDGE OF THE GLASS.
TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2015 JEEP RENEGADE.
