Historical MOT pass rates and DVLA records for 2009 model year cars.
- Wiper linkage seizureModerate
The wiper linkage pivots seize through corrosion and lack of lubrication, overloading the motor and eventually leaving the wipers painfully slow or completely inoperative.
- Front coil spring snappingModerate
A classic UK Renault MOT issue. The bottom coil can corrode and snap, sometimes unnoticed until an MOT or until it damages a tyre.
- Key-card and UCH electrical faultsModerate
The key card itself and the associated body-control electronics can cause intermittent unlocking, non-starts and random electrical quirks.
