There should be 2 holes per side on the back frame rails on your 2015 Jeep Renegade. They will be covered with rubber covers (rear 2 holes) and plastic plugs (forward 2 holes). For the forward 2 holes you will need a T25 bit to remove them from the frame. I have linked the instructions for Curt trailer hitch # C13269 for you.

If you plan on doing some towing you might be interested in etrailer ball mount kit # 989900. It comes with 2 ball mounts; one with a 3/4 inch rise or 2 inch drop and one with a 2-3/4 inch rise or 4 inch drop. It also includes a 1-7/8 inch ball, 2 inch ball, hitch pin with clip, and a storage bag.

If the ball mount kit does not have the right rise or drop to tow the trailer level, use the link I have included that explains how to measure to choose a ball mount to tow the trailer level.

For trailer wiring use # 118651.
