SUBARU OUTBACK2013 · 2.5L PETROL

The 2018 MOT entries reveal multiple failures on a 2013 Subaru Outback with 145,973 miles, indicating recurring issues with lighting, electrical systems, and tyre condition. The most recent recorded MOT on 2018-12-29 shows the offside front tyre worn close to the legal limit, alongside front headlamp aim too low. Earlier 2018 tests highlight additional problems, including non-working stop lamps, ABS faults, and a malfunctioning engine MIL. These failures suggest inconsistent maintenance and potential underlying electrical or mechanical degradation. A pattern of electrical and lighting defects emerges, with repeated issues involving headlamps, stop lamps, and the ABS system. The 2018-10-20 test noted a non-working nearside headlamp, a faulty engine MIL, and an ABS warning lamp that failed to illuminate. Subsequent tests in December 2018 added tyre wear and headlamp alignment issues. These problems, spread across multiple tests within a short timeframe, indicate a worsening trend in the vehicle’s reliability and safety systems. The vehicle’s mileage of 145,973 miles over 13 years equates to roughly 11,229 miles per year, which is typical for its age. This suggests average usage rather than heavy wear or prolonged inactivity.
