Quick summary
Total: 5,557 cars
The 2022 SKODA KAROQ has an overall defect rate of 80 defects per 100 vehicles, which is 13% higher than the average car of the same year, at 70 defects per 100. Notably, this model shows a significant trend in defect rates as mileage increases, with the highest issues reported in the 93,000–124,000 miles category. While the KAROQ performs better than average in categories such as brakes, visibility, and steering, it has a notably higher incidence of problems in wheels, suspensions, and axles compared to the average model. This suggests that while the KAROQ excels in specific areas, it may require closer attention to its suspension and wheel components as mileage increases.
