Renault Kangoo MOT reliability

We do not show MOT figures for the Renault Kangoo. 82% of those on the DVLA record are vans, and DVSA’s MOT results do not separate car and van tests of the same model, so the figures would not describe the car. How we work out MOT figures.

Renault Kangoo registrations over time

Registrations of Renault Kangoos for the first time in Great Britain peaked at 3,150 in 2004. In 2025, 1 were registered. With almost none registered new, the number on the road is likely to keep falling.

  • Official figures from laboratory type-approval tests. VCA says they may not be achieved in real-world driving, and should not be used to rank cars with similar figures.
  • Engine sizes are rounded to the nearest 0.1 litre. A version is one line in VCA’s data (description, gearbox, engine and fuel), counted once however many years it was listed. Matched from VCA’s model names “Kangoo”, “Kangoo (all versions and trim levels)”, “New Kangoo”. How we use VCA’s figures.

All 18 Renault Kangoo recalls, with defects, remedies and build dates

82% of the Renault Kangoos on the DVLA record are vans. DVSA’s recalls cover every body type, so some of these recalls may apply only to vans.

A recall applies to cars built on particular dates or with particular VINs, not to every Renault Kangoo. The details come from manufacturers through DVSA, which says they may be delayed or incomplete. To check a specific car, use GOV.UK’s vehicle recall check or ask the manufacturer or a dealer. How we match recalls to models.

  • Figures cover Great Britain (England, Scotland and Wales). Northern Ireland is not included.
  • Licensed counts are vehicles with a current tax or exemption at the end of each year (or the latest quarter). SORN counts are shown separately.
  • First registrations count vehicles registered in Great Britain for the first time, including used imports.
  • Models are grouped by DVLA’s generic model name, so every generation and trim counts together.
