Similar cars to consider

Buyers comparing the Ford Kuga often also look at these models. Check their MOT history and reliability before deciding:

Buying a Ford Kuga Mk2?

Avoid early 2012-2014 (more recalls); 2016+ facelift better built. Overall, average for a Ford SUV—solid if serviced, but electrical/niggly body issues pile up post-60k miles; not troublesome like some diesels but check history hard.

  • Tailgate catch/latch knocking — The tailgate catch mechanism wears or loosens, causing play in the latch assembly. £100-£250 (new catch + labour).[1]
  • Gear lever gaiter wear — Rubber gaiter around the gear shifter splits or degrades prematurely. £50-£150 (new gaiter + labour).[1]
  • Door creaks — Door hinges or seals dry out/wear, causing friction in the door mechanism. £80-£200 (grease hinges/seals or replace bushes).[1]
  • Keyless entry door handle sensor failure — Salt/water ingress corrodes sensors in the exterior door handles (keyless models). £150-£400 (clean/replace handle sensor).[2][3]
  • Common G6DG Engine Faults
2.0 TDCi engine: Average for a 2008-2019 era Euro 5 diesel—solid if serviced but EGR/emissions parts drag it down; fewer catastrophic failures than chain-driven rivals, but neglect leads to expensive cleans. Watch for weak on EGR sticking (emissions-sensitive); strong on block durability/low oil burn vs later TDCI.
