What fails its inspection
Great Britain's MOT record for the 2019 2.0 diesel. 19 of 631 tests failed, 3%.
Better than 97% of 2019 cars. The typical one fails 9%, across 908 models with enough tests behind them to say.
| Where | Share of failures | Failed tests |
|---|---|---|
| Lights and electrics | 53% | 10 |
| Visibility | 42% | 8 |
| Suspension | 21% | 4 |
| Tyres and wheels | 11% | 2 |
| Brakes | 5% | 1 |
| Exhaust and emissions | 5% | 1 |
The defects inspectors cite
- Wiper blade missing or obviously not clearing the windscreen
- A lamp missing, inoperative or in the case of a multiple light source more than 1/2 not functioning
- Stop lamp missing, inoperative or in the case of a multiple light source more than 1/2 not functioning
- A shock absorber damaged to the extent that it does not function or showing signs of severe leakage
- A spring or spring component fractured or seriously weakened
- A tyre pressure monitoring system malfunctioning or obviously inoperative
Where it stands out against its peers
- Lights and electrics: failed more often than 98% of 2019 cars — 53% of its 19 failed tests, where an ordinary 2019 car has 13%.
- Visibility: failed more often than 93% of 2019 cars — 42% of its 19 failed tests, where an ordinary 2019 car has 17%.
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.
