2010 Renault Scenic 1.5L Diesel · AP10 JEO

High Risk of Immediate Repairs Required Most Recent MOT Outcome The vehicle failed a MOT on 2024-08-01 at 116,664 miles. This failure was triggered by three distinct mechanical issues: a nearside front suspension arm ball joint with slight play, an offside front tyre with exposed ply or cords, and offside front shock absorbers with light oil mist. The most recent MOT on 2025-07-16 was passed at 122,718 miles, indicating the previous failure was a result of wear and tear rather than a sudden catastrophic failure. Main Risk Pattern The primary risk pattern is sudden suspension and tyre failure . The history shows a clear progression where the most recent failure was caused by the same specific components (suspension arm ball joint and front tyre) that failed on a 2024-08-01 MOT. The 2023-07-25 MOT confirmed these same components had slight play and were prone to failure, suggesting the wear rate has been consistent for over two years. Condition Trend and Mileage Context The condition trend is worsening . The vehicle has been in the UK since 2010. At 16 years old, it is expected to have 7,670 miles of recorded mileage. The 2025-2026 MOTs show the vehicle is approaching the legal limit (5.2.3 (e)) for tyres and suspension components.
