Quick summary

Total: 1,636 cars

The 2007 Vauxhall Movano has an overall defect rate of 389 per 100 vehicles, which is notably higher than the average of 352 per 100, indicating a 10% increase in defects compared to similar vehicles. Mileage trends show that defect rates rise sharply in higher mileage categories, particularly in those over 124,000 miles, where the model shows a significant increase to 519 defects per 100. While the Movano performs better than average in the Wheels, Suspensions & Axles category, it struggles significantly with Brakes, Steering, and Visibility, showing considerably higher defect rates in these areas. These findings suggest that while the Movano has some strengths, particularly in suspension, it has notable weaknesses in critical safety-related components.
