What fails its inspection
Great Britain's MOT record for the 2020 1.5 diesel. 25 of 244 tests failed, 10%.
Better than 27% of 2020 cars. The typical one fails 8%, across 906 models with enough tests behind them to say.
| Where | Share of failures | Failed tests |
|---|---|---|
| Brakes | 40% | 10 |
| Visibility | 36% | 9 |
| Tyres and wheels | 32% | 8 |
| Lights and electrics | 28% | 7 |
| Exhaust and emissions | 8% | 2 |
| Seat belts and airbags | 4% | 1 |
The defects inspectors cite
- A brake lining or pad worn below 1.5mm
- Wiper blade missing or obviously not clearing the windscreen
- Brake disc or drum significantly and obviously worn
- A tyre seriously damaged
- The aim of a headlamp is not within limits laid down in the requirements
- A headlamp or light source missing, inoperative or more than ½ not functioning in the case of LED
Where it stands out against its peers
- Brakes: failed more often than 95% of 2020 cars — 40% of its 25 failed tests, where an ordinary 2020 car has 16%.
- Visibility: failed more often than 90% of 2020 cars — 36% of its 25 failed tests, where an ordinary 2020 car has 14%.
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.

- A tyre seriously damaged
- A tyre pressure monitoring system malfunctioning or obviously inoperative
- Exhaust and emissions — 8% of its failures
- Lights and electrics — 28% of its failures
- A headlamp or light source missing, inoperative or more than ½ not functioning in the case of LED
- A rear registration plate lamp or light source missing or inoperative in the case of a single lamp or all lamps

When it starts failing
At 60–80k miles this one fails 13% of its inspections, against the 14% an ordinary car of the same age fails.
| Odometer | Failure rate | Rate | Its age | Tests |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| 0–20k miles | 11% | 5% | 44 | |
| 20–40k miles | 10% | 10% | 78 | |
| 40–60k miles | 10% | 13% | 70 | |
| 60–80k miles | 13% | 14% | 40 |
232 British inspections, grouped by the odometer reading recorded at the test.
Half of these have more than 20k miles on them. That is how far people drive this car, not how long it lasts.

Recalls
Filed by the manufacturer with a regulator. A recall is repaired free of charge, whoever owns the car now.
A11/00111/21
If there is a fuel leakage from the auxiliary heater, which could cause fuel to leak onto the road surface, the road could become slippery which could cause an incident. The product does not comply with the requirements laid down in the Regulation on the approval and market surveillance of motor vehicles and their trailers, and of systems, components and separate technical units intended for such vehicles.

A12/00307/23
The underbody cover fails to stop flammable materials to accumulate under the engine, increasing the risk of fire. The product does not comply with the Regulation on the approval and market surveillance of motor vehicles and their trailers, and of systems, components and separate technical units intended for such vehicles.

A12/00429/23
The auxiliary battery terminal may be faulty. This can disable the power steering support. Moreover, the battery terminal can overheat at low speeds, increasing the risk of fire. The product does not comply with the Regulation on the approval and market surveillance of motor vehicles and their trailers, and of systems, components and separate technical units intended for such vehicles.

A12/01335/23
The loading capacity of the rear tyres is lower than its maximum permitted load. This could lead to a loss of control over the vehicle, creating a risk of an accident. The product does not comply with the Regulation on the approval and market surveillance of motor vehicles and their trailers, and of systems, components and separate technical units intended for such vehicles.
Recall of the product from end users
A12/01460/23
A software error in the Engine Control Unit prevents the Malfunction Indicator Light (MIL) from activating if the urea injection system shuts down. This may result in higher emissions and poses a risk to the environment. The product does not comply with the Regulation on the approval and market surveillance of Motor Vehicles and their trailers, and of systems, components and separate technical units intended for such vehicles.

A12/01573/24
In some braking situations the Controller Area Network (CAN) system might send erroneously a CAN signal “invalid value” for vacuum pressure in booster. This deactivates thee Hydraulic Brake compensation, causing a brake vacuum loss that can lead to reduced braking performance. This increases the risk of accidents and injuries. The product does not comply with the Regulation on the approval and market surveillance of motor vehicles and their trailers, and of systems, components and separate technical units intended for such vehicles.
Recall of the product from end users
A12/01772/23
The safety function (charge pin temperature sensor) of the charging cable may fail and not prevent the cable from overheating, creating a risk of fire. The product does not comply with the Regulation on the approval and market surveillance of motor vehicles and their trailers, and of systems, components and separate technical units intended for such vehicles.
Recall of the product from end users
