Buying a used 2020 Jeep Renegade? Check these 3 recalls first
The 2020 Jeep Renegade has 3 recalls in this group covering a potentially cracked rear brake caliper, front airbag deployment, and a backup camera image that stays on screen.

Power train issues account for 7, making engine operation and drivetrain service history additional areas to examine.
Before you buy
- Get the 17-character VIN from the seller and run it at nhtsa.gov/recalls. It shows which recalls are still unrepaired on that exact car.
- Request rear brake caliper recall completion records.
- Confirm front airbag and backup camera recall completion.
- Ask about engine, electrical, and drivetrain repairs.
- Open recalls are repaired free at any Jeep dealer, whoever owns the car — an open recall is a to-do item, not a bill.
