Common MG4 problems owners report
- 12-volt battery failures that stop the car starting or unlocking (mostly 2023–24); dealers fit a new battery and software. (australiancar.reviews)
- Over-eager lane-keep steering (improved by a software update). (australiancar.reviews)
Battery and warranty
8 yrs / 160,000 km. The warranty runs from when the car was first sold, so a 2023 car has about 5 years left and a 2024 car about 6 years left. Ask for a battery health (state of health) report before you buy: how to check the battery, including independent tests from about $200. If it ever needs one: what a new battery costs.
Running costs
At 250 km a week with NSW prices, a 2023 on MG4 costs about $15 a week charged mostly at home, or $29 on public fast chargers. See the full MG4 page for running costs in your state, servicing and the new-car price.
