Buying a used 2021 Jeep Renegade? Check these 2 recalls first

2 NHTSA recalls · 66 owner complaints on file

Only two recalls: a front airbag that may not deploy in a crash, and a wrong reverse light assembly on some vehicles. The 66 unverified NHTSA complaints skew toward electrical system (26) and a large unknown-or-other group (20), with engine and forward collision avoidance at nine each; three crashes, one fire and two injuries are reported. Electronics and driver-assist behavior, more than mechanical faults, describe most of what owners filed.

Before you buy

1. 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.
2. Check VIN recall status on the front airbag non-deployment recall
3. Confirm the reverse lights work and the correct assembly is installed
4. Test infotainment, warning lights and forward collision alerts for erratic or false behavior
5. Open recalls are repaired free at any Jeep dealer, whoever owns the car — an open recall is a to-do item, not a bill.
