1 known fault

1.8 141

  1. Driver airbag recall

    Manufacturer recall

    The inflator propellant of the driver airbag can deteriorate over time: in the event of deployment, fragments can be thrown out and injure the occupants. The recall covers Orlandos built between June 2010 and May 2016 (Car-recalls.eu). An owners’ forum thread mentions the Takata airbag on the Orlando. Check with the chassis number at a dealer before buying.

    Fixed free of charge by a dealer and not counted in the reliability score: ask for proof the work was done (invoice, or a VIN check at a dealer).
