2019 Vauxhall Astra 1.4L Petrol · BF19 OCY

The most recent MOT on 2026-03-27 shows the vehicle both PASSED and FAILED on the same day, with the failure attributed to a tyre pressure monitoring system (TPMS) malfunction and front brake discs worn, pitted, or scored but not seriously weakened. The same brake disc issue was noted in the PASSED MOT, suggesting it was not resolved between tests. The TPMS failure is a new concern, indicating potential electrical or sensor-related faults. Recurring mechanical patterns include front brake disc wear and windscreen damage that did not impair visibility. The 2024 MOT also noted a slightly worn steering column top bearing , though this was not repeated in later tests. No major safety defects were recorded in the 2023 MOT, but the 2025 and 2024 entries highlight minor issues that have persisted or reoccurred. The trend shows no clear worsening of critical defects, but the TPMS failure and repeated brake disc wear suggest ongoing maintenance needs. The brake discs may require inspection for excessive wear, while the TPMS issue could indicate a deeper electrical fault. The windscreen damage, though not a safety risk, may signal neglect or exposure to road debris. The vehicle’s mileage of 45,015 miles over seven years is typical , averaging 6,431 miles annually.
