2015 Chrysler 200 2.4L Petrol · AE64 LHX

The most recent MOT was on 1 July 2024, when the 2015 Chrysler 200 passed at 78,330 mi. The test flagged a near‑side and off‑side front MacPherson strut pin or bush as “worn but not resulting in excessive movement”. That is the only defect recorded, and it does not currently breach safety limits, but it does highlight wear in the front suspension. Because there is only a single MOT entry, there is no clear trend to judge whether the problem is getting worse. The fact that the wear was already present at the last test suggests the front suspension is the principal area of concern. If the bushings continue to deteriorate, they could eventually allow excessive movement, leading to handling issues or premature tyre wear. At roughly 7,100 mi per year, the mileage is typical for an eleven‑year‑old vehicle. It does not point to unusually heavy use, but it also does not rule out periods of low activity followed by higher loads. In practice, the mileage level means the drivetrain, brakes and suspension have seen a moderate amount of wear – neither a red flag nor a guarantee of pristine condition. For a buyer, the first inspection should focus on the front suspension: Check both front strut bushes for play by rocking the wheel at the 12 o’clock and 6 o’clock positions.
