Chrysler Gr-Voyager Exec XS CRD A

What fails its inspection

Great Britain's MOT record for the 2007 2.8 diesel. 17 of 58 tests failed, 29%.

Better than 28% of 2007 cars. The typical one fails 27%, across 935 models with enough tests behind them to say.

The defects inspectors cite

• Warning device shows system malfunction
• A lamp missing, inoperative or in the case of a multiple light source more than 1/2 not functioning
• A suspension pin, bush or joint excessively worn
• Lamp emitted colour, position or intensity not in accordance with the requirements
• Parking brake efficiency below minimum requirement
• A steering ball joint with excessive wear or free play

Where it stands out against its peers

• Brakes: failed more often than 96% of 2007 cars — 59% of its 17 failed tests, where an ordinary 2007 car has 34%.

Same model year only, at least 30 peer cars, zeros included. Every car has a worst part; this shows which, and how far from ordinary it is. A high share means more to check, not a verdict.

NHTSA's investigations are American; no European regulator publishes an equivalent record, so this section has nothing to draw on for a European car. There is no European equivalent of the service-bulletin register either.
