2016 Renault Espace: what owners report

• On the 2015–2023 car the 1.6 dCi 160 dominates French fault reports: gearbox, engine failure, battery, cooling, EGR and turbo problems.2015–2023
• The 2015 launch was rough: French magazine L'argus counted thirteen corrective campaigns in about 15 months, including engine wiring on early 1.6 dCi cars and R-Link 2 software bugs.2015–2016
• Owners of both the 2002–2014 and 2015–2023 cars often complain that Renault dealers were slow or dismissive when the same faults kept returning.2002–2023
• French owners rate ride comfort and cabin space as the Espace's main strengths; on the 2002–2014 car comfort is praised far more often than criticised.2002–2023
