Buying a used 2023 Jeep Renegade? Check these 2 recalls first
Two recalls sit on this year: a serious one covering front airbags that may not deploy in a crash, and a minor one for an incorrect reverse light assembly. Neither carries a stop-driving or park-outside warning. The complaint file is small — 20 unverified owner reports to NHTSA with no crashes, fires, or injuries — leaning electrical, with smaller clusters around forward collision avoidance, seat belts, and airbags. The airbag recall overlaps those reported areas, so confirming recall completion by VIN matters here.
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.
- Run the VIN to confirm the front airbag deployment recall was completed
- Verify the reverse light assembly is the correct part and works
- Test airbag and seat belt warning lights, plus the forward collision alert
- Open recalls are repaired free at any Jeep dealer, whoever owns the car — an open recall is a to-do item, not a bill.
