AI-generated interpretation of this vehicle’s MOT record — not an official statement and not a substitute for an independent inspection.

The Jeep Patriot Limited Auto has a mixed roadworthiness status, having passed its most recent MOT test on 2026-01-20 at 77,360 miles with no defects recorded. However, the previous test on 2026-01-08 revealed serious corrosion to the sub-frame and suspension component mountings, indicating a worsening trend in maintenance. The recorded mileage of 77,360 miles at 18 years old, with an average annual mileage of 4,298 miles, suggests a relatively low usage pattern for its age. There are no significant gaps in the mileage records, but the rapid accumulation of mileage between 2018 and 2026, with a 9,788-mile increase over 8 years, may indicate a period of increased usage. Notable mileage jumps occur between 2016 and 2017, with a 5,312-mile increase, and between 2024 and 2025, with a 2,417-mile increase. A buyer should inspect the vehicle's sub-frame, suspension components, and brake hoses in person, as these have been flagged as corroded or weakened in previous tests. The rear tyres have been worn close to the legal limit on multiple occasions, suggesting a lack of regular maintenance. The nearside front suspension arm ball joint has been excessively worn, and the power steering has been close to the minimum mark, indicating potential issues with the steering system. The rear suspension arms have corroded in the past, and a nail was found in the nearside rear tyre, highlighting the need for a thorough examination of the vehicle's underside and wheel wells.
