2001 Renault Master 35T review from UK and Ireland
"Total Rubbish"
What things have gone wrong with the car?
Firstly temperature sensor failure, Dealer was very good.
2nd Fault Rear wheel bearing failure at about 40,000miles, different dealership changed the wrong bearing, destroyed the drive shaft and returned the van like that, I took it back, they had it for a week, they told so many lies I had to pay for an independent vehicle inspector to go in and get the truth.
Third fault driver's seat welding broke, complaints fell on deaf ears.
Fourth fault, total gearbox failure at 86,000 miles, Renault warranty is 3 years or 60,000 miles whichever the sooner, they refuse to do anything to help, the Dealership (Mumfords at Plymouth) have been great, Renault themselves are totally without any sort of flexibility or customer good will.
General comments?
I will never buy anything from Renault ever again.
