2022 Lexus RX 3.5L Hybrid electric · BH22 SAJ

The vehicle maintains a roadworthy status but the most recent inspection indicates a slight decline in basic consumable maintenance. While the car passed in May 2026 at 35,962 miles, the tester flagged an advisory for a rear tyre worn close to the legal limit and showing edge wear. This represents a shift from the clean record seen in 2025, suggesting that the owner has neglected tyre management over the last year. The mileage pattern remains consistent with typical usage for a vehicle of this age, averaging approximately 9,000 miles per annum. Between the May 2025 test at 28,445 miles and the May 2026 test, the car covered 7,517 miles. This steady accumulation suggests regular use rather than long periods of standing, which helps keep drivetrain and suspension components free from the seal-related degradation often seen in stationary low-mileage cars. A buyer should conduct a physical inspection of the suspension geometry and alignment due to the edge wear noted on the rear tyre. This uneven wear often points to incorrect tracking or worn suspension bushes. Given the lack of any structural or mechanical defects recorded in the 2025 test, the structural integrity appears sound, but the focus should remain on the remaining tyres and brake pad life to ensure no immediate expenditure is required.
