- Corrosion on Indian-built ModelsSerious
Early UK Dusters (pre-2015) were built in Chennai, India, and suffered from poor paint quality and inadequate galvanisation, leading to rapid rusting of door bottoms, sills, and arches.
- 1.2 TCe Oil Consumption and Timing Chain WearSerious
The 1.2 TCe petrol can use oil heavily; if owners miss top-ups, the timing chain stretches and the engine can start rattling or misfiring before major failure.
