1998 Renault Scenic RXE review from UK and Ireland
"Proved to be unreliable"
What things have gone wrong with the car?
Automatic gearbox had to be replaced.
General comments?
I was stunned to be landed with a near £1900 bill (LATER REDUCED TO £950 as a goodwill gesture) to replace an automatic gearbox that had done only 28,000 miles. How many other people have had this problem I wonder. Is there a design fault? I'd like to know.
