Customer reviews for Dacia DusterDacia Duster according to those who use it on a daily basis

The change of engine from the classic 1.6 Renault diesel was a disappointment and the nonsensical Ad Blue a real hassle as is the massive electronic 'key' too big (& unhealthy) to put in a pocket and the electronics have a mind of their own - I disable the remote locking and it decides to change back at random sounding the horn when unlocked making me very unpopular with my neighbours. The last version was not 'broke' so why has it been 'fixed'?!

I absolutely love the new look. It's stylish but still very functional. This is my first petrol Duster. The rest have all been diesel. I thought I would miss the performance of the diesel engine, but I haven't. The only thing I noticed is that if I move my speed up or down using the +and - when using the cruise control it's not as smooth as my previous Dusters. Apart from that I am delighted with it.

The car its self can’t fault it great to drive good fuel economy and wee burst of pace when needed . The Apple car play however proper garbage says its wireless connect but it doesn’t so use my cable for about a week connected randomly to that so I’ve had to shell out £40 quid for a dongle to make it work so mega disappointed and that will take it up with dealer when it goes for first service

Like the overall look and driving experience. Would be better if the seatbelt hieght was adjustable as it is uncomfortable if not wearing a collared shirt. It is really annoying that the radio shuts down so quickly after switching the engine off. We often travel on ferries sitting in the car for around 1/2 an hour. The battery will not run down if the radio is in use for this length of time.

Can't find anything to complain about. My issue was dealt with quickly and I felt that I wasn't just being treated like a number, but a valued customer. I hope this continues moving forward. I can't remember the name of the lady who assisted me unfortunately but I will say l, she was brilliant. Really helpful. I could tell she was all about customer service. Thank you for your help

Keyless entry don’t like, went wrong, wouldn’t start, later reset itself. Worried about security with keyless entry, disabled it.

Not sure if metal is very thin, it got car doored very easily.

Phone holder is pointless, rattled when no phone on it so I don’t use it

Everything else I love, good mpg, good ground clearance. Love the look of it, plenty of power for a small engine.

Love this car! It’s nice to drive, good size, funky design that gets heads turning! It has all the gadgets I need, the seats are very comfortable and stylish and the interior matches the design outside so flows smoothly. The boot is enormous and I love the rubber mats, make cleaning so much easier. I can’t wait for the push button tailgate to arrive as that’s next on my list!

In our last Duster we previously had all round cameras (great for parking assistance), blind spot indicators, heated seats. All of which we loved. When we decided to get a hybrid Duster we lost the above. Our phones no longer connect automatically. I have no idea how the intermittent sweep on the wipers work. We are delighted with the large increase in miles per gallon.

Very impressed with the Duster.

It is delivering excellent economy with very acceptable levels of comfort and is impressively spacious. Very quiet too which is welcome.

The warning chimes are a little irritating unless of course you appreciate loud organ recitals and they do tend to kick in far too soon which is off putting when negotiating tight parking spaces.

The new Duster looks the part, quite distinct from previous models, and I have found it to be a joy to drive, although the electric parking brake took a little getting used to. Has proved to be quite economical on fuel, not doubt in part to the mild hybrid motor. plenty of room on the back seat for the rotweiller. Adequate boot room but yet to try a tip run.
