In the 2015 Jeep Renegade, the thermostat is located in the thermostat housing along the lower coolant line. This component is responsible for monitoring the temperature of the coolant as it flows through the line, allowing the engine to regulate its operating temperature accordingly. A faulty thermostat can lead to engine overheating, which can cause serious damage to the car. If the check engine light indicates a thermostat issue, it is crucial to address it immediately to prevent costly repairs down the road. A complete thermostat replacement typically costs around $200, so it is best not to delay in getting it fixed.

    The temperature sensor is incorrectly placed inside the passenger mirror. This design flaw could cause issues if it fails to function properly. Being located within a closed space with no airflow, and surrounded by a dark mirror, it becomes like a small oven. I'm planning to swap mine out and see if that resolves the problem.
