What Renault Kadjar failures look like
533,541 Renault Kadjar tests on record carry the manual reference DVSA attaches to each defect. The most frequent problems were with axles, wheels, tyres and suspension on 221,275 tests (41.5%), with brakes on 142,657 tests (26.7%) and with lamps, reflectors and electrical equipment on 41,071 tests (7.7%). A test can fail on more than one thing, and an MOT can be failed on one defect while another is only advised, so these counts do not add up to the number of tests.
