First, lift the car on a column jack to the desired height, then remove the wheel (using a telescopic wrench or air drill) with the respective bolts. Unscrew the retaining bolts of the drum cover with a socket wrench; remove it from the wheel hub support. Remove the metal clips holding the springs with a screwdriver.

To check the oil level on a Jeep Renegade, you need to open the bonnet to access the components inside the engine bay: on the lower left side of the engine block, you will find the dipstick for checking the level.
