    My 2017 Jeep Renegade TH is lurching, or skipping/shaking when in idle but also under acceleration. It doesn't happen constantly but perhaps every 5-20 seconds at random.

    It's only just started this morning out of nowhere with half a tank of fuel.


    It seems like something to do with the engine considering that it's also happening when in park and idling.


    Any ideas out there????

    2017, how many miles are on it? Sounds like it could be time for some spark plugs.

    69k Kms, so whatever that is in miles.

    Booked in for a service in a few weeks. Mechanic said over the phone that it could well be spark plugs, if that's all it is I'm happy!!
