2022 RENAULT ARKANA ICONIC E-TECH HEV AUTO1.6L Hybrid Electric (Clean)

The vehicle is currently roadworthy, but the maintenance history shows a concerning trend of reactive repairs. While it passed its most recent test in June 2026 at 44,476 miles, this followed a failure just one day prior due to significant mechanical wear. The recurring nature of tyre-related failures across the last two years suggests the previous owner only addressed consumable items when they reached a legal failure point during an MOT inspection rather than performing routine preventative maintenance. The mileage pattern is consistent with a typical-use vehicle, averaging approximately 11,000 miles per year. There is a clear gap of 16,730 miles between the May 2025 test at 27,746 miles and the June 2026 test at 44,476 miles. This steady accumulation of mileage explains the degradation of the rubber-based components and tyre surfaces, as the vehicle has been driven significant distances between recorded inspections of the steering geometry and tyre condition. A buyer must conduct a thorough inspection of the front suspension and alignment geometry. The June 2026 failure identified a nearside front track rod end with excessive play, which, combined with the noted inner-edge wear on both front tyres, indicates a likely misalignment issue or worn suspension bushes. You should also inspect the offside rear tyre for further sidew cracking, as the previous record flagged structural degradation in the tread that suggests the rubber is aging or deteriorating regardless of remaining tread depth.
