SSANGYONG REXTON2009 · 2.7L DIESEL

The vehicle presents a history of recurring mechanical and structural issues, primarily concentrated around the suspension and braking systems. While the most recent MOT test in April 2019 was a pass, the preceding years indicate a pattern of wear on key components. Specifically, the history shows failures related to offside front suspension arms, track rod ends, and anti-roll bar links. These faults suggest that while the vehicle has been used, it requires frequent attention to its lower assembly to maintain roadworthiness standards. The mileage profile is consistent with a vehicle of this age, progressing from approximately 98,000 miles in 2018 to over 115,000 miles by 2019. This represents an average of roughly 17,000 miles per year, which is slightly above the national average but typical for a large SUV. There are no significant gaps in the testing history that would🇯 long periods of inactivity or neglected maintenance during the recorded years. A prospective buyer should prioritize a thorough inspection of the entire suspension geometry, checking for further play in the ball joints and bushes, as these have been consistent failure points in the past. Given the history of broken coil springs and worn bushings, the structural integrity of the mounting points should also be verified for corrosion. Additionally, the braking system and lighting components should be checked, as previous tests have frequently flagged inoperative lamps and reflectors in the past.
