2020 SUZUKI VITARA1.0L PETROL

This 2020 Suzuki Vitara has a generally clean MOT history, passing its last three tests. However, there is one significant and developing mechanical fault to be aware of. The most recent test in June 2025 noted play and knocking in the nearside front steering rack arm. This is a serious safety and handling concern. Crucially, this defect was not present or was not flagged in the 2024 test, meaning it has developed or worsened in the last year of use. The steering rack is a critical component, and play here can lead to imprecise steering and accelerated tyre wear. Looking at the broader pattern, the car previously showed even wear on both front brake pads in 2023, which is a common maintenance item. The fact that no brake defects were recorded in 2024 suggests this was properly addressed. The condition of the brakes therefore appears to be currently stable or improved. The vehicle's annual average mileage is typical for its age.
