Technology & Safety

Common Problem

TL;DR
• Noise and rattling issues are common in convertibles. • Selector lever malfunction is a known issue in F series models. • Potential for expensive repairs if not under warranty.
Noise and Rattling
One of the most frequently mentioned issues with MINI Convertibles, including the 2021 model, is noise and rattling. Users have reported that while the noise level isn't unpleasant, it is noticeable compared to hardtop versions. The convertible's design inherently leads to less rigidity, which can affect handling and contribute to these noises.
Selector Lever Malfunction
A specific mechanical issue that has been noted is the selector lever malfunction in F series cars. This problem involves a spring in the shifter mechanism failing, which can lead to the need for a full replacement of the shifter unit if not addressed early. Although this issue seems more prevalent in newer models like the 2023 Cooper S, it's worth being aware of as a potential concern for similar models.
Repair Costs and Warranty Concerns
MINI vehicles, in general, have a reputation for potentially high repair costs, especially if they are not covered by a warranty. Some users have expressed regret over not opting for extended warranties when faced with unexpected repair needs shortly after purchase ,. It's advisable to consider an extended warranty or be prepared for possible costly repairs.
General Reliability and Maintenance
While some owners report satisfaction and love for their MINI Convertibles, others caution about reliability issues, particularly with older models or those with multiple previous owners ,. Regular maintenance and thorough inspections before purchasing a used MINI can help mitigate some of these concerns.
