2015 Ford C-MAX 1.6L Diesel · CV65 KCY

The vehicle's recorded MOTs indicate a history of passing and failure, resulting in an overall roadworthiness verdict of "unreliable" due to the presence of recurring defects. The most recent test on 2026-03-26 was passed at 97,855 miles with no defects, but this was immediately followed by a failure on the same date at 97,855 miles, confirming that the vehicle has not reached its safe operating limit. The subsequent tests in late 2025 and early 2024 passed at significantly lower mileage levels (88,082 and 78,173 miles), suggesting that the vehicle has not been driven in a way that would cause the same damage as the 2026 tests. The mileage pattern reveals a distinct gap between the most recent test and the earlier failures, with the vehicle failing at 97,855 miles in March 2026 and passing again in March 2026. This repetition of the same mileage number suggests that the vehicle has not undergone a full period of driving since the 2026 test, which could indicate that the owner has not maintained the vehicle properly or that the engine and drivetrain have degraded beyond safe limits. The failure on 2025-04-09 at 88,076 miles, followed by a passing test in April 2024, shows that the vehicle has been driven for roughly two years since the 2025 test, implying that the engine and drivetrain components have not been serviced in a way that would prevent premature failure. Given the recurring faults and the significant gap between the most recent test and the earlier failures, the buyer should inspect the vehicle for structural integrity, particularly focusing on the suspension, brakes, and drivetrain components. The failure on 2026-03-26 at 97,855 miles suggests that the suspension bushings or coil springs may be compromised, which would lead to a loss of roadworthiness. The failure on 2025-04-09 at 88,076 miles indicates that the brake discs or calipers may have worn down, or that the brake pads may be failing, which would also affect roadworthiness. The buyer must verify the condition of these components and check for any signs of corrosion or wear that could compromise the vehicle's ability to safely operate.
