DODGE (USA) UNKNOWN2016 · 5.7L PETROL

The vehicle holds a valid MOT certificate following the most recent test on 8 June 2026 at 182,010 miles, which is just eight days old at the time of writing. The maintenance trend presents a mixed picture. The tester flagged a minor exhaust gas leak at the rear, a fault that also appeared in the June 2025 failure. This recurrence suggests the exhaust system has had a persistent, low-level issue that has not been fully resolved. Otherwise, the record is largely clean, with several passes showing no defects at all. The mileage data raises a significant anomaly. The vehicle has a 2016 registration, yet the recorded mileage jumped from 223,733 miles in March 2022 to 285,349 miles by June 2025, an increase of over 61,000 miles in just over three years. The most recent reading, however, shows 182,010 miles. This dramatic drop strongly indicates a mileage discrepancy, most likely caused by a faulty or replaced odometer, or potential tampering. The vehicle cannot physically have covered fewer miles over time than it previously recorded. This discrepancy fundamentally undermines the reliability of the entire service and wear history. A buyer must treat the mileage figure as unverifiable and inspect the vehicle accordingly. The recurring minor exhaust leak points to potential corrosion or a failing joint in the rear section, which warrants a thorough under-check for structural integrity. Given the mileage inconsistency, a full mechanical inspection is essential. Focus on the condition of the suspension bushes, coil springs, and brake components, as genuine high-mileage wear may be masked. A diagnostic scan and a physical check of the exhaust system for gas leaks are strongly advised before purchase.
