Jeep Renegade SERVICE ENGINE Light.. Problem & Repair

I shared my experience when this issue happened with me.

My brother in Christ thank you I just received the 2017 Jeep renegade and I had no clue what was going on with my engine after doing an oil change. It's still under warranty with the company I got it from and I'm going to take it into the shop sometime this week to figure it out 🙌🏾

Thank you so much for this video. Cold day here in Virginia, got out of work, start the vehicle and bam Service Engine Light comes on. I did exactly what you did and started into a rant. Glad I found this video. Going to have it checked out and hopefully it's a simple fix.

Thank you that is what happened with my jeep it was in a cold day snow where starting and my check engine light came on and my 4wd is not working like you said thank you so much for sharing your video now I'm feeling ok now

[GreenEclipz]

Had this problem yesterday on a cold day and it's in the dealership now being looked at. Hopefully this is the problem and nothing major. Thanks for sharing.

Thanks for this. It just happen yesterday ...snow storm... very cold

[dsimpson]

Thank you very much for making this video, having the same issue went to the dealer and that was the problem 😊

That’s insane that you loose the ability of 4wd because of a thermostat.
That makes about as much sense as not being able to put your seatbelt on because you don’t have 4 passengers.

Thank you 3 repair shops could not tell me what you just did

My wifes just came on and yes ot is pretty cold right now im hoping its the same thing and not something big, it is running just fine right now

[countryroad]

Yup, just dug out my obd scanner and its p0128 thermostat

[dinocat]

Thanks for the information this helped me!

This just happened to me. I have the same year and model. I didn't take it in, but I just took the ground cable off and it reset. We have had cold weather (-10) and now we almost hit 30s. How much was it to replace the themostat? I'm going to take it in if it does come on again.

Mines happened and it’s 51 degrees…I hope this is what it is and nothing more, ugh

[karljolley]

yep, just one more idiotic design feature; loose 4x4 if you have a check engine light. Running light out = no 4x4. I carry an obd reader in the trailhawk, note the code, wipe the code if need to have 4x and is good long enough to get up the hill to the shop.

Mine is in the dealership today. I'm hoping its nothing major. Glad I bought the extended warranty because the manufacturer warranty had just ran out.

My mechanic Says cold weather can cause and then it will be fine but then said if it keeps doing it, he'd replace thermostat... how annoying disables the factory remote start too.. I do hope this isn't the beginning of the nickel and diming! He explained it with mine anyway the engine is running cold around 160.. and reading more on it, can cause engine wear and less fuel mileage which I have noticed for awhile now. I never get what they say I should get with it.

[nichellel]

Mine too was under your bumper to bumper warranty or your powertrain warranty

[jhiggerson]

I had the thermostat issue too. Then the cooling fan went. Then an ignition coil burned out...

[dddlll]

It just happened to me a couple days ago but at the same time the light for my air condition and the light for my rear defrost wouldn't go off even when the car was off

[csgira]

Same experience happened to me. But they said, come back when the light goes on again. Mo Fo's.. just didn't want to deal with it that day. Light came back on. Snow storm. No employees show up... have to make an appointment. Ugh...
