2015 Dodge Journey 3.6L Petrol · AE65 BKK

The vehicle presents a clean roadworthiness profile based on the most recent inspection. In the test conducted on 30 March 2022 at 47,762 miles, the car passed with no recorded defects or advisories. This indicates a stable maintenance trend up to that point in time, though the lack of data for the subsequent four years means the current mechanical state remains unverified by the DVSA testing framework. The recorded mileage is significantly lower than average for an eleven-year-old vehicle, averaging approximately 4,342 miles per annum. This low usage suggests light road miles, which typically reduces wear on the drivetrain and internal engine components. However, the four-year gap between the last MOT in 2022 and the current date suggests the vehicle may have sat for extended periods. Long periods of inactivity often lead to degradation of rubber-based components, fluid acidity, and brake disc corrosion which are not captured by mileage figures alone. A prospective buyer must prioritize a physical inspection of components affected by low-mileage storage. Check the tyres for sidewall cracking and flat spots, and inspect the brake rotors for surface pitting or seizing. Given the age of the Dodge Journey, the inspector should examine the suspension bushes, coil springs, and structural integrity for signs of corrosion that can occur regardless of low mileage. Since no tests have been recorded since 2022, a fresh MOT test and physical check are essential to ensure no mechanical leaks or safety failures have developed during the period of dormancy.
