Jeep Avenger - Reliability and safety

At the time of writing, Euro NCAP hasn’t published a crash safety score for the Avenger. However, the closely related Peugeot 2008, Citroen C4 and Vauxhall Mokka all received four-star overall ratings, so we expect it’ll be a similar story with the Jeep. 

In terms of safety kit, every Avenger is equipped with six airbags, ISOFIX on the front passenger and rear seats, cruise control, lane departure warning, traffic sign recognition, drowsy driver detection, traction control and rear parking sensors. Mid-range Altitude-spec models add adaptive cruise control, while range-topping Summit cars feature lane centering and traffic jam assist, along with a 180-degree rear-view camera and automatic high/low beam.

The Avenger is also too new to have made an appearance in our Driver Power owner satisfaction survey, but the related Citroen C4/e-C4 did manage to claim first place on our list of the best cars to own, which is based on owners’ feedback from Driver Power. The 2008 also took the 53rd spot, while the Mokka rounded off the top-75 car list.

Warranty

The Avenger comes as standard with a three-year warranty, but you can get four years of warranty coverage, plus complimentary servicing and roadside assistance for the same period if you sign up with Jeep Shield. The electric Avenger’s battery gets a separate eight-year/100,000-mile warranty, which can be extended by three years.

Servicing

The Jeep Avenger comes with the Jeep Shield after-sales package, which includes 24 months of complimentary servicing, four years of warranty cover and 24/7 roadside assistance. 

The service schedule for the Jeep Avenger varies depending on the model you get. Internal-combustion versions need to be serviced every 12 months or 12,500 miles, while the EV requires an initial service after 12 months or 8,000 miles, whichever comes first, then every two years or every 16,000 miles after that.
