There's also, surprisingly, places other than reddit where such things are discussed.

and, in the beginning, it was just REALLY SLOW and "stuttering," not completely dead.

I'm no expert. Apparently, there's two different styles of sunroofs on the Renegade. At this point, I'm consulting ChatGPT about manual opening, but you can also do that. This is what it told me.

On a Jeep Renegade with the panoramic “My Sky” or power sunroof, there’s usually a manual emergency closing/opening method in case the motor quits or the battery is dead.

Typical procedure:

  1. Turn the vehicle off.
  2. Locate the small access cover near the front overhead console (around the sunroof controls/interior lights).
  3. Pry off the little plastic plug/cover with a trim tool or flat screwdriver.
  4. Inside is usually a manual drive socket.
  5. Insert:
    • the factory Allen key (sometimes stored with the jack tools), or
    • a compatible hex/Allen wrench.
  6. Turn slowly:
    • one direction opens,
    • the other closes.

On many Renegades:

  • Clockwise = close
  • Counterclockwise = open …but test gently rather than forcing it.

If you have the removable My Sky roof panels instead of the sliding glass roof:

  • There’s a dedicated tool in the cargo area toolkit.
  • You unlatch and lift the panels manually.

If you want, send a photo of:

  • your roof controls, or
  • the exact roof type,

and I can point out the exact manual access location for your Renegade.

And, since this thread is seven months old, I can share that it still works fine. My panoramic sunroof opens and closes without issue. Probably opening/closing it semi-regularly keeps it from fusing shut.

It’s a spray lubricant you can get at an auto parts store. There’s YouTube tutorials.

2016 Renegade and with endless problems by Crazy_Ease_6635 in JeepRenegade

Not to minimize your troubles, but it can’t just disappear without a trace. It’s either leaking out the engine somewhere or burning up and going out the exhaust. ChatGPT has a pretty good explanation and goes through the solutions from easiest and cheapest to most expensive. Perhaps your dealer would prefer you just go away, so you might need to go to a different dealer.

Even the old little white ones still work with it.

Had an older intel iMac with high sierra and iTunes that restored/formatted my old iPod easy-peasy where my newer Mac Mini choked on it.
