Each campaign in detail

  1. Horn that can interfere with the driver's airbag (2017 recall)

    Manufacturer recall

    In October 2017, Dacia recalled Dusters produced until 25 May 2017: the horn was not suited to the electrical circuit, with a risk of horn failure and a malfunction of the driver's airbag. The repair consists of checking the contacts and adding a relay.

    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).

  2. Rear suspension spring that can dislodge (2016 recall)

    Manufacturer recall

    Dacia recalled Dusters whose rear suspension spring can slip off its seats and dislodge during strong suspension rebound, for example when crossing an obstacle. L'argus cites 5,864 Duster 4x2 vehicles produced from 13 March to 2 June 2014 in Pitesti; the repair replaces the rear springs and their lower seats.

    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).
