Each campaign in detail

  1. Brake hoses worn by wheel-arch liners (recall)

    Manufacturer recall

    Incorrect factory fitting of the front wheel-arch liners could make them rub against the brake hoses and reduce braking efficiency. Renault recalled more than 150,000 Clio IV in September 2014, then a further 85,632 built from 5 March 2013 to 10 September 2014 in Bursa (Turkey) in July 2015. According to Renault, the hoses only had to be replaced on 0.5% of cars.

    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).
