Complaints owners filed with NHTSA naming each system, per model year; a bold count links the year’s own page on that system. Counts scale with sales and with time on the road; nothing here is a rate, and NHTSA’s headings are coarse (“Power Train” is the transmission and the driveline).
Common questions

Engine: 709 complaints across 8 model years, 42% of everything owners filed about the Jeep Renegade. A count, not a rate — it says nothing about how many were sold.
Which Jeep Renegade year has the most complaints?
2017 (565), 2018 (442), 2016 (430). Older years have had longer to collect them; the year pages show each year's share by system.
