2009 Ford Transit 2.2L Diesel · CE59 UNR

The vehicle remains roadworthy but the maintenance history shows a clear trend of accelerating mechanical wear and structural degradation. While the most recent test in January 2025 at 136,376 miles passed, it carried multiple advisories regarding worn brake components, thin pads, and perished anti-roll bar bushes. This indicates a shift from the relatively clean records seen between 2014 and 2021, suggesting that the vehicle is now entering a phase where components require more frequent replacement due to age and mileage. At 17 years old, the recorded mileage of 136,376 miles represents an average usage of approximately 8,000 miles per year, which is consistent with a light-duty commercial vehicle. However, the data shows a significant increase in activity between December 2020 (75,486 miles) and January 2025 (136,376 miles), covering over 61,000 miles in just four years. This period of higher use coincides with the appearance of recurring mechanical faults that were previously absent in the vehicle's earlier history. A buyer must prioritize inspectinging the structural integrity of the sills and suspension mounting points. The record consistently flags corrosion on the inner sills since 2022, which persisted through 2025, following a serious failure in 2020 where excessive corrosion significantly reduced structural strength in the mounting areas. While the current pass suggests rigidity is not yet compromised, the persistent rust is a long-term risk for a Transit of this age. Additionally, the front steering rack inner joints and anti-roll bar linkages should be checked for play, as these have been flagged as worn across the last three tests.
