Historical MOT pass rates and DVLA records for 2012 model year cars.
- Tailgate Wiring Loom FailureModerate
The wiring loom running into the tailgate flexes every time the boot is opened and can snap internally, taking out rear electrical functions one by one.
- MultiAir Actuator FailureSerious
The hydraulic MultiAir valve-control unit does not tolerate missed oil changes or the wrong oil grade. Once contamination sets in, misfires and poor running quickly follow.
- Blue&Me and Early Infotainment FaultsModerate
Early Giuliettas can suffer from flaky Blue&Me modules, dead USB ports and intermittent steering-wheel controls, usually because of ageing modules or low voltage.
