2017 JEEP RENEGADE TRAILHAWK 4X4

The vehicle is listed with a Salvage Certificate, with “REAR END” recorded as the auction’s primary damage classification. Stage 1 reports that the visible evidence supports this claim in part: damage is clearly present at the rear bumper and quarter-panel areas, with the most pronounced deformation at the right rear quarter and wheel-arch region. The right rear quarter panel is severely crumpled and sharply creased beside the tail lamp and wheel opening. A substantial section of the outer trim or panel is missing, exposing fasteners, mounting points, unfinished panel edges, and the underlying body panel. The right rear bumper corner is separated from the quarter panel, and the rear bumper cover has additional separation and irregular openings beneath the liftgate and along its lower center and side edges. A large detached section of the bumper cover, including a red reflector and body-colored ends, is shown lying beside the vehicle. The left rear wheel-arch and quarter-panel edge also show moderate deformation and separated edges, with the exterior wheel-arch trim missing and mounting points exposed. Replacement or repair of the affected quarter-panel areas, wheel-arch trim, bumper assembly, and related mounting hardware should be anticipated. The available findings do not establish the condition of the underlying structure, suspension, lighting, sensors, liftgate, or mechanical systems; these areas require a physical inspection and functional testing. Official NHTSA recall records list three campaigns for the 2017 Jeep Renegade. Recall 17V485000 concerns instrument-cluster software that may cause malfunction indicator lamps to illuminate incorrectly. Recall 18V131000 applies to certain vehicles equipped with a 2.4-liter engine and concerns a potentially cracked oil-pump housing/balance-shaft module that could cause an engine stall. Recall 18V731000 applies to certain 4x2 flex-fuel/E85 vehicles with a 2.4-liter engine and concerns possible fuel-pressure loss that could also result in a stall. The vehicle’s equipment configuration and recall completion status should be verified with an authorized Jeep dealer using the VIN.
