Expert Answers about Jeep Renegade
- Recommended Ball Mount and Trailer Hitch for a 2018 Jeep Renegade Limited
- I would be happy to answer your question. The answer will depend on the height of your trailer's coupler though. I will start by confirming the the Curt Trailer Hitch item # C13269 does fit your 2018 Jeep Renegade. The distance from the ground to the bottom of the receiver is 8". You will need to measure your trailer's coupler to determine how much rise or drop you will need. I have linked a help article below that will walk you through the steps. I recommend the Curt Towing Starter Kit...
view full answer... - Is the Malone FoldAway-5 Kayak Carrier Compatible With Rhino-Rack Accessory Bars
- Rhino-Rack accessory bars like the Rhino-Rack Accessory Bars # RR43232B install onto Rhino-Rack Pioneer Platform Racks. This style makes the Malone FoldAway-5 Kayak, Canoe, and SUP Roof Rack # MAL38FR or other clamp-on racks incompatible.
This is because of the Pioneer Platform running underneath the accessory bars, which interferes with the clamps of the clamp on accessories. You would instead need to use a channel (track) mount carrier like the Thule Hull-A-Port Aero Kayak Roof Rack...

- Yes, the Tekonsha 4-pole wiring harness kit # 118651 is a fit on the 2017 Jeep Renegade that has no factory-installed trailer wiring. This harness provides trailer lighting signals (but not brake power or auxiliary trailer power which is included in 7-way wiring). This is all you need to tow a 4-pole-equipped trailer that does not have brakes.
This harness installs mostly by plugging together mating connectors at your taillights and also requires you to route one single wire up to the...

- If you are wanting to carry 4 adult bikes with your 2016 Jeep Renegade then a Class III trailer hitch receiver, like the Draw-Tite # 76021 you reference, is the best way to go. Although this trailer hitch has a tongue weight rating of 675 lbs, I took a look at the online version of your owner's manual and on page 421 it states that the max tongue weight is 200 lbs. The weight of your bike rack and bikes must not exceed this.
Since you have a lower tongue weight capacity I recommend using...
view full answer... - Compatibility of Malone Bike Adapter Bar with Yakima Bike Rack
- The Malone Bike Adapter Bar for Women's, Children's, and Alternative Frame Bikes # MPG2165 will work well with your Yakima HangOut 2 Bike Rack # Y02637. An adapter bar simply creates a top frame rail between the seat post and the handlebars on step-thru style frames to give you a level transport. It isn't a requirement for most bikes but it does help balance your rack better, give you better sightlines, and at times help with ground clearance.
view full answer... - Feet Needed to Mount Rhino-Rack Vortex Aero Crossbars on a 2017 Jeep Renegade
- Yes, you can purchase just the Rhino-Rack SX Series Legs for Vortex Aero Crossbars part # RRSX100 to mount the Rhino-Rack Vortex Aero Crossbars on your 2017 Jeep Renegade. Please note, the recommended crossbar size for this vehicle is 49". I don't think a smaller size would fit but you could likely use one or two larger, either a 54" or possibly a 59". The issue is that the underside of the bars where they attach to the feet are slotted so you only have so much range for these slots to...
view full answer... - Will the Malone Profile18B Roof Cargo Box Fit on a 2017 Jeep Renegade
- We haven't had the chance to test fit the Malone Profile18B, part # MPG911, on a 2017 Jeep Renegade as of yet but it's designed to fit most factory roof racks so that shouldn't be an issue for you.
The only issue you may run into is whether you can open the rear hatch without making contact with the roof box. If you measure from the center of your rear crossbar to the seem where the roof meets the rear hatch on your Renegade you can find out. The Profile18B needs at least 21 inches...
view full answer... - How to Install a 5-Way Trailer Connector on a 2015 Jeep Renegade
- In order to install a 5-way trailer connector on the rear of your 2015 Jeep Renegade you will need to start with a 4-way trailer connector. For this, I recommend taking a look at the T-One Vehicle Wiring Harness with 4-Pole Flat Trailer Connector part # 118651 which offers a completely plug and play install that will not require you to cut or splice any circuits/wires. I have attached an installation video of this harness installed on a similar 2016 Jeep Renegade for reference.

- We offer a number of hitches for your 2016 Jeep Renegade, both 1-1/4-inch Class II and 2-inch Class III types, not all of which we've had an opportunity to install for a local Renegade owner. The 2-inch Draw-Tite hitch # 76021 is probably the one you are referring to; its installed position is shown in the linked photo. Generally speaking we always steer customers to a 2-inch hitch when one is available since they offer higher capacity and broader compatibility with accessory products.

- For an engine block heater that is a confirmed fit for your 2015 Jeep Renegade with the 1.4L I4 turbo engine you will want to use the Kat's Heaters Custom Engine Block Heater part # KH11487. I checked with the manufacturer to confirm this.

- The etrailer Trailer Hitch Receiver # e37AR fits a 2015 - 2022 Jeep Renegade, and at this time (March 2023) the Renegade is the only vehicle it will fit.
In order to tow with your Renegade you also need the following:
- Curt T-Connector Wiring # C56274
- Mounting Brackets # C42CR and # 18140
- Ball Mount Kit like # C45155 (see linked article for guidelines on choosing the correct ball mount)
view full answer... - Trailer Hitch and Wiring for a 2015 Jeep Renegade Trailhawk
- It sounds like your 2015 Jeep Renegade Trailhawk has the 14mm bolts in place instead of the rubber plugs. These are usually found on models that have the factory tow hooks. You will remove the bolts to install the hitch. Since the bolts are on so tight you may need to use a breaker bar/cheater bar to get enough leverage to loosen them.
I checked with the hitch manufactures and all of the available hitches are designed to fit all models, including the Trailhawk, of the 2015 Jeep Renegade...

- In order to haul your 15mm x 110mm through axle bike on the Rhino-Rack XTray Pro Cargo Basket and 2 Bike Carrier - Steel - 58-1/4" x 41" - 165 lbs # RRRMCB03, you will need to use Thru Axle Insert # RRRBCA036. I attached a demonstration video which shows how to install and use this adapter with the Rhino-Rack XTray.
view full answer... - 2021 Jeep Renegade North Trailer Hitch Fitment
- The EcoHitch Hidden Trailer Hitch Receiver # EH83VR has only been confirmed to fit up to a 2020 Jeep Renegade which is why it isn't listed as a fit as of yet (September 2023) for your 2021 Jeep Renegade.
If your 2021 North model has those 3 mounting bolt holes with the middle one a little offset to the inside then this could very well fit your vehicle, it just hasn't been confirmed yet.
The other hitches that have been confirmed to fit the more recent model year, like the etrailer Trailer...
view full answer... - Will the Thule Medium Cargo Basket Fit on a 2018 Jeep Renegade
- Yes. The Thule Canyon XT Roof Cargo Basket - Steel - 49" x 40" x 6" - 150 lbs, Item # TH859XT will fit on either factory or aftermarket crossbars, and will work on your 2018 Jeep Renegade. You will need your crossbars to be between 20" and 37" apart to carry this basket; you'll want to choose the spread that provides you with the optimal load distribution,
I've linked a short video review we did on this basket for you to have a look at, as well.

- Actually the Yakima FullBack, part # Y02634, is confirmed to fit by Yakima so that explains the video. The picture I attached is from Yakima's site.
I've submitted a request to our fit guide so it reflects that the rack does fit the 2017 Jeep Renegade.
view full answer... - Determining if Thule Force XT # TH6359B Will Fit 2019 Jeep Renegade
- Roof cargo boxes like the excellent Thule Force XT # TH6359B aren't fit guided for certain vehicles. As long as you have standard crossbars installed (no wider than 3-1/2 inches or taller than 1-11/16 inches) on the roof of your 2019 Jeep Renegade this box will fit.
The only dimension you will want to check is the Jeep's rear hatch clearance. To determine this you will need to measure from the center of the front crossbar back to the line where the hatch and roof meet. As long as this...
view full answer... - Does Thule Canyon XT TH859XT Cargo Basket Fit Crossbars of 2016 Jeep Renegade
- The Thule Canyon XT # TH859XT fits your OEM crossbars on your 2016 Jeep Renegade as long as the crossbars do not exceed 3-1/8" wide x 1" tall. Also, you need to make sure that your crossbar spread can be adjusted between 20" - 37". I recommend measuring your crossbar setup to make sure that your roof rack fits within these parameters. To add security to the basket, I recommend using the one-key locks # TH450400.
view full answer... - Can Different Hardware be Used to Mount Rhino Rack Basket to Vortex Crossbars on 2016 Jeep Renegade
- I have a possible solution for you but the hardware that comes with the Rhino-Rack Xtray cargo baskets such as # RMCB02 is unique in the way it attaches to the actual basket. Each foot mounts along 2 of the basket's front to back rails so no alternate hardware will fit.
But take a look at the Thule Canyon XT # TH859XT. It uses just the U-Bolts so there is more space between the bottom of the roof rack rails and the top of the vehicle roof so you should have plenty of room for your sunroof.

- Thanks so much for the photo. While your Schwinn Admiral Hybrid bike will fit on the Yakima HangOut 2 Bike Rack # Y02637, I recommend purchasing the Swagman Bike Frame Adapter Bar Women's, Children's, and Alternative Frame Bikes # 64005. This provides your bike with the straight, horizontal crosstube that is required to attach to the arms of the HangOut 2. I went ahead and attached a photo of a similar bike style as yours using a bike frame adapter bar on the HangOut 2.
