2022 Ford Mustang Mach-E STD Range AWD Electric · BX22 WBY

A relatively sparse MOT history for a 2022 Ford Mustang Mach-E shows one recent failure linked to an offside rear tyre, followed a week later by a clean pass on 11 February 2026, and a single prior pass on 4 February 2025 with no defects recorded. The pattern as it stands does not indicate a chronic mechanical problem, as the documented defects are limited to a single tyre-related dangerous failure rather than recurring structural, brake, or suspension issues. A buyer should still treat the absent intermediate MOT records with caution, as this is a relatively new vehicle that may simply not yet have accumulated the longer history of advisories that older cars develop. The overall short-term trend is therefore stable but based on limited evidence, and a prospective buyer should not interpret the clean recent pass as proof of long-term condition. With 34,504 miles recorded against an age of approximately four years, this Mach-E has covered roughly 8,626 miles per year, which sits broadly in line with typical usage for a modern family-oriented electric SUV. There are no obvious anomalies such as an extended SORN period creating a multi-year gap between tests, nor any sudden mileage spike that would suggest heavy commercial use or long-distance commuting. The testing cadence visible is consistent with continuous road use, although it is worth noting that EVs often accumulate lower annual mileage than comparable petrol or diesel vehicles due to charging habits and typical second-car duties. Mechanically, this mid-range annual mileage implies moderate consumption of the friction and contact components, while leaving high-voltage battery degradation as the principal long-term wear concern rather than traditional engine internals. For a test drive, the absence of recorded brake or steering advisories means attention should focus on the behaviour typical of an EV rather than chasing the historical tyre issue. Listen for any binding, grinding, or reluctance to release on the rear axle, since Mach-E models with electronic parking brakes can develop caliper sticking that produces uneven pad wear and pulling under braking. On uneven road surfaces, listen for clonks or thuds from the rear suspension, as the multilink arrangement is known to transmit wear from trailing arms and bushes; any knocking over bumps warrants investigation. Steering should remain precise without vibration through the wheel, and regen braking should feel consistent rather than pulling to one side under light deceleration. The single dangerous tyre failure is worth treating as a focused inspection point rather than a general warning. Inspect all four tyres for tread depth across the full width and shoulder, as a single-edge wear pattern on the offside rear could indicate a misalignment or camber issue rather than simple under-inflation, and the same wheel may already be due for replacement given the recorded depth below 1.6mm. Check the sidewalls for cracking or bulging, particularly on a vehicle that has seen four years of UK weather exposure, and confirm that a full-size spare or inflation kit is present and serviceable. Finally, given the EV powertrain, verify the 12V auxiliary battery health and tyre pressure monitoring system function, as these are common failure points on Mach-E vehicles that would not necessarily surface on an MOT but would affect day-to-day usability.
