2015 Ford Fiesta 1.0L Petrol · CF15 HBY

A pattern of clean roadworthiness has shifted toward multiple wear-related advisories in the latest evaluation. While the vehicle passed its most recent test on 7 July 2025, the record now flags wear on all four brake discs and a central front oil leak at the rear of the engine. This represents a decline from the previous two years of defect-free passes, indicating that several key consumables and seals are now approaching the end of their service life. With 75,821 miles recorded over eleven years, the vehicle has averaged approximately 6,893 miles per year, which is consistent with typical usage for this model. This steady accumulation suggests the drivetrain and suspension have been subjected to standard wear and tear rather than the degradation associated with prolonged standing or the heavy fatigue of high-mileage commuting. Attention should be directed toward the braking system, as the 2025 advisories regarding all four discs suggest a comprehensive replacement may be required soon. During a test drive, feel for any pulsation or judder through the brake pedal and steering wheel under deceleration, which would indicate warped discs. The recorded oil leak at the rear of the engine requires a physical inspection of the sump and rear main seal area for active seepage or residue. The history of edge wear on the front tyres, noted in 2019 and 2022, suggests a potential issue with wheel alignment or suspension geometry. Check for any steering pull or an off-centre steering wheel when driving in a straight line. Ensure the current tyre tread is consistent across the width of the tyre to confirm that any previous alignment issues have been rectified.
