Safety recalls

Attention

Safety recalls may affect this vehicle.

  1. 1 Recall R/2018/144 Risk of fuel leak

    Defect: Risk of a diesel fuel leak in the engine bay

    Remedy: Fit a protective clip or replace pipe.

  2. 2 Recall R/2016/304 Drivers airbag may not deploy

    Defect: It has been identified that due to an internal defect within the drivers air-bag if the SRS system detects an impact/collision which requires deployment of the air-bags then the drivers air-bag may not deploy. Therefore there is a risk of increased injury to the driver.

    Remedy: Recall all affected vehicles to check and if required replace the driver's air-bag with a new unit.

What should I do?

Contact the manufacturer or an authorised dealer to confirm whether these recalls affect this car and whether any work is required.

Accident history

Full History Report

Insurers record a car as a write-off (Category A, B, S or N) when it’s too damaged or too costly to repair. A repaired write-off can be sold again, but it’s worth less.

Frequently asked questions

What’s the difference between a Basic Car Report and a Full History Report?

This Basic Car Report is free and built from public DVLA and DVSA records for RX63 UMU: its MOT history, the mileage recorded at each MOT, tax and SORN status, ULEZ status and safety recalls where available. The Full History Report adds the checks those public records can’t show: outstanding finance, insurance write-offs, police stolen records, previous owners, plate changes and mileage records from beyond the MOT.

How can I check if a car has outstanding finance or has been stolen?

Neither is in the Basic Car Report, because public DVLA and DVSA records don’t include finance agreements or police stolen reports; they come from separate finance and police data. The Full History Report checks both for RX63 UMU, along with write-offs and previous owners, before you hand over any money.

What should I check before buying a used car?

Start with the public checks in this report: the MOT history for repeat failures and advisories, mileage readings that rise steadily, tax and SORN status, and any outstanding safety recalls. Then check what public records don’t show: outstanding finance, insurance write-offs, stolen records and ownership history. Finally, see the car in person and make sure the V5C logbook and VIN match the car and the seller.

What should I check before buying a used Dacia?

Dacias fail their MOT most often on lamps, reflectors and electrical equipment: 29% of their failures, against 25% for all cars. Visibility (windscreen, wipers, washers and mirrors) accounts for more of their failures than average, 13% against 8%. In this car’s MOT history above, look for failures and advisories in those areas and ask whether they were fixed.

Are Dacias reliable used cars?

MOT results are a useful public guide. In 2025, Dacias passed 70.1% of their initial MOT tests, 2.2 points below the 72.3% average for all cars and 41st of 63 makes. Older ones pass less often, 78.4% at 3 to 5 years old against 56.6% at 11 years and over, so how this car has been looked after matters most: its MOT history above is the best evidence. Compare every Dacia model’s MOT record.
