2022 Renault Arkana RS Line E-Tech HEV Auto 1.6L Hybrid electric (clean) · Y66 GUS

The vehicle is currently roadworthy, but the maintenance history reveals a pattern of reactive rather than proactive care. The most recent test on 26 August 2025 at 72,278 miles showed a failure for a fractured nearside rear coil spring and worn front tyres. While the vehicle passed the re-test, the recurring nature of the faults suggests that components are only addressed once they reach a failure point rather than during scheduled service intervals. At 72,278 miles over ten years, the CX-5 averages approximately 7,200 miles per year, which aligns with with typical national averages for a family SUV. The mileage progression shows consistent use, with roughly 7,300 miles covered between the September 2024 and August 2025 tests. This steady usage generally reduces the strain on the drivetrain, but it does not exempt the vehicle from age-related degradation, as evidenced by the uneven wear on the front tyres indicating potential alignment issues or worn suspension components. A buyer must conduct a close inspection of the front suspension geometry and braking system. The September 2024 test at 64,991 miles flagged worn lower suspension arm bushes and an excessively corroded nearside front brake pipe. Although the pipe was noted as corroded in 2023, the subsequent failure suggests the corrosion progressed enough to compromise the structural integrity of the hydraulic line. The recurring reports of inner-edge tyre wear across multiple years further indicate that the vehicle's alignment is out of specification, which will continue to cause premature tyre replacement if not professionally corrected.
