2003 Renault Scenic review from UK and Ireland
"Truly dreadful"
What things have gone wrong with the car?
Current problems:
Dephaser needs replacing.
Heating and fan worked only intermittently and now completely broken.
Handbrake first did not come on, then came on while driving!
Windows won't close (intermittent problem).
General comments?
This car is seriously unreliable; it is by far the worst I have ever owned. I believe it to be thoroughly unsafe, and would never buy one again, nor recommend that anyone else should either. I should have listened to friends and family's warnings about Renault's reliability record.
