"This car is very unreliable and I wish I hadn't sold my Audi A3"

What things have gone wrong with the car?

The starter went bad at around 50000 kilometres and car had to be towed.

Tires have wore out quickly in the period of time I've had it.

Windshield Wiper blades wear out quickly.

The car has had to be towed in several to where the dealer could'nt explain. This has been lots of trouble because this usually happens when I'm going to work. It seems like I have spent more time in rental cars than this car.

General comments?

All of the occurrences of the car not starting happened in the morning at work. I believe I have spent more time in rental cars than in this one. The Audi A3 I had before I had this car was much better quality.

Renault brought out this model with KNOWN problems with the fuel injection system.

The senior support engineer of the importer in The Netherlands confirmed this.. but asked not to be quoted officially.

Renault changed the car after it quit running so many times and they couldn“t repair it.. and the new one started the SAME problems after a few months...

Renault France just said `keep cleaning the injection system` and gave us some special stuff to add to the fuel...

UNBELIEVABLE.. just bringing something onto the market that they KNEW was rubbish!!!

NEVER NEVER another Renault!!!
