2016 Jeep Renegade fuel economy (EPA)
The EPA rates the 2016 Jeep Renegade at 24–27 MPG combined; the 1.4L 4-cylinder turbo (AWD) is the most efficient and the 2.4L 4-cylinder (AWD) the thirstiest. Every EPA test configuration is below, from the government's fuel-economy database.
City, highway and combined figures are in MPG (MPGe on electricity).
| Version | Engine | Transmission · drive | City | Hwy | Comb. | Fuel / yr | CO₂ g/mi |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| Renegade 2WD | 1.4L 4-cylinder turbo | 6-speed manual · FWD | 24MPG | 31MPG | 26MPG | $3,000 | 336 |
| Renegade 2WD | 2.4L 4-cylinderFFV | 9-speed automatic · FWD | 22MPG | 30MPG | 25MPG | $2,500 | 357 |
| Renegade 4WD | 1.4L 4-cylinder turbo | 6-speed manual · AWD | 24MPG | 31MPG | 27MPG | $2,850 | 334 |
| Renegade 4WD | 2.4L 4-cylinder | 9-speed automatic · AWD | 21MPG | 29MPG | 24MPG | $2,600 | 371 |
Source: U.S. EPA and Department of Energy, fueleconomy.gov. MPG is miles per gallon (MPGe for electric operation). Plug-in hybrids list gasoline-only MPG with the electric rating underneath. Annual fuel cost assumes 15,000 miles a year at the EPA's fuel-price assumptions, so yours will differ. Range is total driving range on a full tank or charge.
2016 Jeep Renegade wheels & tires
Factory tire and wheel sizes, spare and the pressure to run, from the spec sheet and owner's manual.
| Fits | Tire | Type |
|---|---|---|
| Sport and LatitudeStandard | 215/65R16Continental CrossContact LX Sport | all-season, black sidewall |
| Latitude (2.4-liter Tigershark MultiAir2 engine)Standard | 215/60R17Continental CrossContact LX Sport | all-season, black sidewall |

- Cold tire pressure
- Not a single number: the owner's manual refers to the tire and loading placard, which lists the pressures for your exact tire size and load.
- Spare
- The manual covers a compact spare, a matching or non-matching full-size spare and a tire service kit depending on equipment; only a matching full-size spare has a pressure sensor.
- Lug nut torque
- 89 ft-lb (120 N·m), M12 x 1.25 thread, 17 mm socket
- Pressure monitor
- A tire pressure monitoring system warns when a tire is low.
Sizes and pressures vary by trim, wheel package and load: check the placard on your vehicle and the tire sidewall. Sizes from the manufacturer's specification sheet (2016 Jeep Renegade Specifications). Pressure and spare notes from the owner's manual.
2016 Jeep Renegade maintenance schedule
The factory schedule for normal driving. Oil changes follow the oil-change indicator on most models; severe use (towing, dusty roads, lots of idling) shortens some intervals.
A dot means the service is due at that mileage or after that many years, whichever comes first.
- Check tire condition/wear and adjust pressure, if necessary, check TIREKIT expiration date (if provided)
- Check operation of lighting system (headlamps, direction indicators, hazard warning lights, luggage compartment, passenger compartment, glove compartment, instrument panel warning lights, etc.)
- Check and, if necessary, top up fluid levels (brakes/hydraulic clutch, windshield washer, battery, engine coolant, etc.)
- Check engine control system operation (via diagnostic tool)
- Check windshield/rear window wiper blade position/wear
- Check operation of windshield washer system and adjust jets if necessary
- Check cleanliness of hood and tailgate locks and cleanliness and lubrication of linkages

Recalls (2)
Newest first. A campaign covers certain vehicles of this model year, not necessarily every one. To see which apply to a specific vehicle, and whether the fix has been done, enter its VIN at nhtsa.gov/recalls or ask a dealer; repairs are free of charge.
Trailer hitchesJuly 20, 2016 · Campaign 16V545000
Chrysler (FCA US LLC) is recalling certain model year 2015-2016 Jeep Renegade vehicles manufactured August 25, 2014, to June 25, 2016, equipped with a factory-installed optional trailer hitch package. The trailer hitch assembly may have been attached with only a single fastener per side, not three per side as required.
Risk: Without the proper amount of fasteners, the trailer hitch assembly may separate from the vehicle, and any towed vehicle may no longer be properly connected, increasing the risk of a crash.
Fix: Chrysler will notify owners, and dealers will install two additional fasteners per side, free of charge. The recall began on October 13, 2016. Owners may contact Chrysler customer service at 1-800-853-1403. Chrysler's number for this recall is S62.
Campaign 16V545000 on NHTSA.govSuspension: rearFebruary 18, 2016 · Campaign 16E013000
Daystar Products International, Inc. (Daystar) is recalling certain aftermarket replacement rear control arm brackets included in Daystar's 2015-2016 Jeep Renegade 1.5" spacer kit, part KJ09168BK, shipped from Daystar to distributors between October 27, 2015 and November 5, 2015. The affected spacers may have improper or incomplete welds on the top flange on the rear control arm bracket, that can allow the rear axle to shift while driving.
Risk: If the axle moves there could be an increased risk of a crash.
Fix: Daystar will notify owners, and direct them to repair shops to have the brackets inspected and replaced as needed, free of charge. The recall began on March 11, 2016. Owners may contact Daystar customer service at 1-623-907-0081 or by email at Jbilyeu@daystarweb.com. Daystar's number for this recall is 16-01.

Great Lakes owner notes
The 2016 Jeep Renegade against salt, snow and steep grades
Lake-effect squalls, roads soaked in brine, potholes that open with every thaw and long Appalachian grades: driving in the Great Lakes states asks a lot of tires, batteries and undersides. These notes take the 2016 Renegade figures above and flag the ones that carry the most weight in West Virginia.
Pothole season and the factory tire sizes
Smallest factory tire: 215/65R16. Freeze-thaw cycles break up asphalt across the Great Lakes states, and one jolt can knock the alignment out without leaving a mark on the wheel. If the steering wheel sits off-center or the Renegade wanders after a pothole, get the alignment checked before the tire edges wear. A winter set on 16-inch wheels also keeps salt off the originals.
Oil for a frozen-driveway start
The 2016 Jeep Renegade fluids table lists SAE 5W-40 (1.4L Turbo) and SAE 0W-20 (2.4L), with 4 qt (1.4L Turbo) and 5.5 qt (2.4L) per change. Lake-effect winters are full of short, cold trips: to work, to school, to the store and home again before the engine reaches temperature. That pattern is tough on oil, so let the oil-change indicator set the interval and never stretch it.
Battery checks before the cold
The spec sheet lists 500 to 600 cold-cranking amps. A Renegade left at a lake cottage or in a pole barn for weeks slowly drains its battery, and a cold snap then finds it with nothing to spare. A plug-in maintainer for stored vehicles is cheap insurance in the Great Lakes states.
Drive systems for lake-effect snow
The 2016 lineup includes front-wheel drive, rear-wheel drive and four-wheel drive. Power at both axles pays off when a band off Lake Erie buries the Snowbelt east of Cleveland, or on a steep, unplowed road out of a hollow in eastern Kentucky. It gets you moving; stopping on ice is still up to the tires.
Towing to the lake
The schedule lists manual transmission fluid service for frequent trailer towing, starting at 50,000 miles. Whether it is a fishing boat headed for the Ohio River or a pop-up camper bound for the Smokies, the extra heat of towing ages these fluids faster, most of all on long July climbs.
Brake fluid, long descents and salted lines
The schedule lists brake fluid replacement starting at 20,000 miles. Brake fluid absorbs moisture over time, which lowers its boiling point, and a long descent off a Tennessee or West Virginia ridge is exactly where brakes get hot enough for that to matter. In Michigan and Ohio, have the steel brake lines checked for salt corrosion whenever the wheels are off.
Fuel reserve for storm closures
Fuel capacity: 12.7 gallons. Lake-effect whiteouts can shut stretches of I-94 in Michigan or I-90 through the Ohio Snowbelt for hours, so keep the tank from running low between November and March. If you do end up stranded, a running engine for heat needs a tailpipe clear of snow.
Each spec in these notes is pulled from the tables above. The commentary on salt, snow, potholes and grades is general guidance for the Great Lakes states; the owner's manual remains the authority.
