Historical MOT pass rates and DVLA records for 2016 model year cars.
- Power Tailgate Strut or Spindle FailureModerate
The motorised tailgate can become slow, jerky, or fail to latch properly as the powered struts and spindle mechanisms wear with age.
- Front Lower Arm Bush WearModerate
The RX is heavy, and its front lower-arm bushes can soften or tear, leading to vague steering, inner tyre wear, and a dull thump over poor surfaces.
