MOT Analysis

Interpretation generated from the recorded test data above — not an official DVSA statement and not a substitute for an independent inspection.

21 MOT tests are recorded for this 2006 Ford S-Max (AJ06 VFS) between May 2009 and January 2024.

The record contains 14 passes and 7 failures.

The most recent test on 16 January 2024 was a fail; the vehicle has not passed its last recorded MOT.

Across all tests, the most frequently flagged areas are: Suspension (23 issues), Tyres (21 issues), Lighting (13 issues), Brakes (12 issues), Bodywork (4 issues). Repeated mentions in one area can indicate an ongoing pattern worth checking in person.

In total 57 advisory notices are recorded. Advisories flag items that passed but may need attention before the next test; they are not evidence of how well the vehicle has been serviced.

Recorded failure items include: “Exhaust emissions exceed manufacturer's specified limit plate value 1.51 1/m average reading 2.31 1/m (8.2.2.2 (a))”; “Nearside Front Shock absorbers damaged to the extent that it does not function (5.3.2 (b))”; “Nearside Front Shock absorbers has a serious fluid leak (5.3.2 (b))”.
