Disgruntled Customer, London

Renault Scenic 2007

Our car caught fire just after my husband came back from work anf the fire brigadge had to be called to extinguish it. The car had given us constant headaches with endless problems that have cost us approx. £3000 in repairs. We will never buy a French car again. Good riddance to bad rubbish.

Linda Shephard, Cheshire

Renault Scenic 1.6 diesel 2007

I have to say that this is the worst car I have ever owned in terms of faults. I have had it under 2 years and so far it has cost me £2000 worth of repairs. I too have experienced the electric windows just dropping down in both the back passenger sides, the heater has stopped working on the higher settings. Last year the window workers would not switch off this cost me over £300 to get a new UPC fitted at the Renault garage, now just 12 months after the original fault, my window wipers will not switch on and have been quoted nearly £400 by the Renault garage. Many of the problems I have had are not really with the central running of the car they are just stupid faults that stop you using your car and that Renault charge absolutely extrortionate prices to repair - Moral of the story is never buy a Renault!!

Donna Ellis, Yorkshire

Renault Scenic 2007

Had this car 3 months. Bought it with 48,000 on the clock. Thought it was a great car for me as I have a baby and a 4 year old. Unfortunately my thoughts were wrong!!! Just had to pay out over £1000 for new pistons only to be told that the clutch was on it’s way out along with the tubo and injecter 4. In a catch 22 at the minute, do I risk it or lose even more money by trading it in? Such a shame as the style is ideal it’s just what’s under the bonnet that’s a load of ****!!!

Stuart, Staffordshire

Renault Scenic dynamique 1.5dci 106 bhp 2007

Only done 21500 miles. Does not pull very well and its gone very heavy on fuel 27mpg, not smoking. Excessive brake pedal travel, had new discs and pads fitted still the same. The gear change is very clunky will not buy a Renault again!!

Tash, South Africa

Renault Scenic 1.6V Authentique 2007

This is officially the worst car I have ever landed up buying. I bought it 2nd hand in Jan 2010 and within 2 months the electrical problems started. It cuts out intermittently and no garage could find the fault. I have tried to sell it for the past 6 months but no one is interested. I want to cry!! Never buying French again.

Renault Scenic 1.5 dci Expression 2007

I have had 2 years of bankache with this thing they call a car, it’s just one problem after another after another after another. The latest one was due to the safety recall on the electronic handbrake, they (Ren-Oh!) couldn’t download the new software for the recall due to faulty handbrake computer which I had to pay for, so after arguing with customer services for two weeks I eventually only got a 25% discount which brought it down to £423. and now we have the illusive check injection warning when I hit between 2500 and 3000 revs usually when trying to overtake, when it cuts back and you have to abandon the manouvre. So thank you Ren-Oh! for ruining my kids summer (no holiday) and a reduced Christmas, at least Dick Turpin had the decency to wear a mask!!!

Renault Scenic 2007

I have a 2007 Renualt Scenic and have had to replace all of the window motors, the keys and heater, these appear to be very common faults so how can Renault not accept these parts are substandard and replace at no cost to their customers?

Victoria, England

Renault Scenic 2007

THE worst car I have ever owned. Bought second hand nearly 3 yrs old. Shortly after buying it the electric windows broke in the back, then the ones in the front went. We have a leak in the passenger footwell and have no idea where it is coming from. The coils have gone, the battery has gone 2x, the fan has broken only works on setting no.3, the handbrake only engages when the car is switched off. The dashboard has broken, oh and our most recent fault (today) the keys don’t work. Either of them. I have googled it and seems yet ANOTHER common fault with these cars. I have £2,500 left to pay on it yet we are getting rid of it as soon as possible, at a loss to us, what with the things we have paid to be fixed, the loan and now another car we will have to buy. Renault UK are useless when you go to them with complaints, obviously they see this all the time, yet as another person said they FIB (putting it VERY mildly) and told me to get most of my repairs done, just to make it driveable would cost over a £1000 - this is of course not including things like leaks, broken fans, and windows etc. I will NEVER buy another Renault so long as I live. FACT. Like others I will tell everyone I know not to purchase a Renault either!!!! Awful service, awful cars.

Renault Scenic 2007

I have bought a Renault Scenic in January 2008 from a local garage in Northern Ireland. My first problem came in September 2008 and I have had problems ever since. I am annoyed and do not know who to turn to. Can you assist me and tell me were I can report to with my complaint. My email is ruth15455@hotmail.co.uk

Sally Goldsmith, Hampshire

Renault Scenic 1.9 dCi 130 Conquest 2007

This is the best MPV, I did a lot of research before parting with my hard-earned money and it was all worth it. The space is very impressive and it can seat 5 adults and still be comfortable. Luggage and storage options cannot be faulted. I have never really been impressed by Renault or by French cars in general but the Scenic has, without doubt, changed my opinion somewhat. There is a feeling of quality that surrounds both the interior and the exterior, the optional parking sensors are recommended as they make parking on supermarket bays a doddle. Then we have the safety aspect, possible the most important factor in my opinion - front, side and full-length window airbags come as standard and the Scenic received the full 4 star EuroNCAP rating. This was the deal clincher. I have now done 10,000 trouble free miles safe in the knowledge that myself and my family are a safe as is possible. Good fuel economy and reasonable insurance costs plus a competitive purchase price make this a no-brainer when choosing a multi person vehicle. The 1.9 litre diesel gives great performance and the Scenic grips the road well. THE best MPV.

Roger Anderson, Derbyshire

Renault Scenic 2.0 dCi diesel 2007

Bought the Scenic brand new a few months ago. Chuffed to bits with it, nippy, spacious, safe and good value for money. The Scenic is based on the Megane and is very economical, doing about 50 miles to the gallon. Both myself and my wife feel extremely safe in the Scenic, a full complement of air bags and anti-lock brakes. A EuroNCap rating of 5 stars confirms this feeling. If you are looking for a family car then you should look no further than the Renault Scenic,, it ticks all the boxes for us as a family.
