What Renault Kangoo failures look like
707,835 Renault Kangoo tests on record carry the manual reference DVSA attaches to each defect. The most frequent problems were with axles, wheels, tyres and suspension on 382,499 tests (54.0%), with brakes on 321,520 tests (45.4%) and with lamps, reflectors and electrical equipment on 183,743 tests (26.0%). 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.
