2022 Suzuki Across E-Four 2.5L Hybrid electric (clean) · AF22 JHL

The vehicle passed its most recent MOT on 10 March 2026, but only after failing the day before. The failure was caused by a rear tyre being below the legal tread limit and items blocking the driver's view, alongside issues with child seats preventing a full seatbelt inspection. There is a clear and recurring pattern of neglected tyre maintenance. In March 2025, a front tyre was noted as being close to the legal limit, and by March 2026, both rear tyres had reached a critical state of wear. This suggests a trend where consumables are run until they fail or are flagged by an inspector rather than being replaced proactively. The mileage is very high for a four-year-old car, averaging over 32,000 miles per year. This level of use indicates heavy duty, which typically results in accelerated wear on the suspension, brakes, and drivetrain components compared to a lower-mileage example. Given the combination of high mileage and the evidence of poor tyre upkeep, there is a risk that other essential maintenance items may have been overlooked. The overall condition trend regarding consumables appears to be worsening. When inspecting the car in person, prioritize a thorough check of all four tyres for uneven wear and tread depth.
