2018 Jeep Wrangler 2.0L Petrol · AE67 JXR

The vehicle is currently roadworthy but the most recent MOT test reveals a trend of deferred maintenance regarding wear components. During the test on 29 April 2026 at 59,456 miles, the Jeep initially failed due to electrical faults and multiple mechanical defects. While the side repeaters were rectified to secure a pass, the remaining advisories indicate that the owner is only addressing faults once they reach a failure threshold rather than following a preventative schedule. At 59,456 miles over eight years, the Wrangler has averaged approximately 7,432 miles per year. This usage pattern is consistent with typical annual mileage for a vehicle of this age and suggests it has not been subjected to heavy-duty work. However, the low mileage does not explain the surface pitting on the brake discs, which suggests the vehicle may have sat for long periods, allowing moisture to corrode the metal surfaces despite the low mileage on the odometer. A buyer must prioritise a thorough inspection of the braking system and wheel assemblies. The tester flagged both nearside and offside front brake discs as worn and pitted, alongside rear inner pads that are thin. More critically, the presence of slight play in both rear wheel bearings is a developing concern as these will eventually require total replacement. The buyer should also verify the condition of the spare tyre and the windscreen, as both were noted as defective in the April test.
