Defect rate by model year
The Dodge Avenger, a mid-size sedan introduced in 2007, was designed to offer a blend of style and performance for the American market. While it garnered attention for its bold design and competitive pricing, the Avenger's reputation has been impacted by varying reliability and performance metrics over the years.
Looking at the reliability data for the 2008 model year, the Avenger shows a notable average of 383 defects per 100 tests, which is higher than the average of 337 defects per 100 for cars of the same year. This indicates a reliability concern, with the Dodge Avenger performing approximately 14% worse than its peers in the market.
Recurring issues identified during MOT inspections include excessively worn suspension components, inadequate tyre tread depth, and concerns regarding brake integrity, such as insecure brake discs and corroded brake hose ferrules. While such wear and tear can often be attributed to general usage and maintenance practices rather than being specific to the Avenger, the frequency of these issues raises questions about the overall durability of the model.
