Sandero customer reviews

I first bought a Sandero in 2016 and when the time came to replace it my main criteria was "why wouldn't I buy another one?" I looked at the competition and concluded there was no reason. I have not been disappointed - after 2000 miles the car has proved perfectly suitable for my needs, economical and the presence of a spare wheel in the boot gives me reassurance that I stand a good chance of getting home under my own steam if a puncture is experienced. Not many cars give you that option these days.

This is our 4th Sandero, they are good reliable cars and excellent value for money..

This new one however, came with a manufacturing fault. The front wheel tracking was not set properly and the car was pulling to the right.

I was impressed that Dacia UK took a keen interest in this, and their Executive Agent Kay continued to stay in touch, both with me to provide reassurance, and the car dealership to chase up a warranty repair. The car is working fine now and we're very happy with it.

The vehicle certainly represents good value overall, however the radio on mine is very temperamental, as there's often no audio when starting the engine, which can only be cured by "rebooting" it using the power button & it also suffers from frequent signal "drop-outs" on DAB/FM channels.

In addition, changing gears is not as smooth as some other manufacturers' products, the Dacia's being what I'd describe as rather "notchy".

We've found the Sandero to be just right for us. Our latest purchase was missing two things. The first was the 6th gear, we got so used to it and it was great for the economy. Still good now but not as good. The second is the internet connection. Previously, this connected without having to have a cable - now it is a requirement, but the socket you have to use is at the top of the dash, where you can't rest your phone.

Sat Nav and Music system does not work as described. Needs to be re-booted whenever the car has been switched off to play radio. Jack plug/mini USB type C near sat nav will not play music direct from USB stick as described. Electric mirrors do not fold in when parked. Push button hand brake has remained on - causing stalling.

The sandero expression is not as good as the sandero comfort that it has replaced and was supposed to be the same. It only has 5 gears. There's no Sat Nav included. The doors need firmer closing rather than clicking back into place when pushed. Overall Im quite disappointed with it

Revert to fitting a proper cable handbrake and bring out a conversion kit to retrofit a proper cable handbrake to existing Sanderos. Electric handbrakes are either off or on making them dangerous, especially on hill starts, when you need to ease the handbrake off or on.

I ejoy the overall concept of the car, it's size works well for me and the drive is better than my previous Dacia.

I love the roof rails that turn to make roof bars , a brilliantly thought out idea.

A good value for money, smart looking, practical car.

My rear offside fog light was not fitted correctly

My rear offside wheel arch casing was not secured

There is an intermittent ‘loose / crunching’ sound from the rear when driving over uneven surfaces (lowered kerbs / speed bumps)

The car has been excellent apart from the tyre sensors which are too sensitive. I have had to recheck the tyres on numerous occasions and reset the computer to extinguish the warning light when the pressures have been accurate.
