2017 JEEP RENEGADE TRAILHAWK 4X4

The vehicle is a 2017 Jeep Renegade sold with a salvage-title designation. The auction lists the primary damage as front end. Stage 1 reports that the visible evidence supports this classification: both front headlamp assemblies are missing from the vehicle, with the headlamp cavities, internal components, and wiring exposed. The two detached headlamp assemblies are shown separately on the ground in front of the vehicle. White abrasion and scrape marks are also visible across the lower center front bumper and grille area. The extent of any related damage behind the front lighting and bumper areas cannot be determined from these findings. A physical inspection should confirm the condition of the mounting points, wiring, front-end structure, cooling components, and safety systems before purchase or repair. NHTSA records list three recalls for certain 2017 Jeep Renegade vehicles. Recall 17V485000 concerns instrument-cluster software that may cause malfunction indicators to illuminate incorrectly. Recall 18V131000 applies to certain vehicles with a 2.4L engine and concerns a potentially cracked oil-pump housing/balance-shaft module that may cause oil-pump failure and engine stalling. Recall 18V731000 applies to certain 2017–2018 4x2 flex-fuel/E85 vehicles with a 2.4L engine and concerns possible fuel-pressure loss that may also result in stalling. Applicability depends on the vehicle’s exact configuration and VIN, and completion of any applicable recall repairs should be verified with an authorized Jeep dealer.
