2017 Honda CR-V 2.0L Petrol · DC66 AAK

The vehicle is currently roadworthy, though the maintenance trend shows a pattern of recurring minor safety failures and reactive repairs. The most recent test in May 2026 resulted in a failure due to an ineffective windscreen wiper and damaged offside mirror, which were rectified immediately to secure a pass. While the vehicle meets minimum legal standards, the history of intermittent failures suggests that minor defects are often addressed only during inspection intervals rather than through proactive preventative maintenance. The' pattern is consistent with the vehicle's age, averaging approximately 11,600 miles per year over its nine-year tenure. There is a significant gap in records of nearly 19,000 miles between December 2023 and February 2025, followed by a rapid accumulation of over 25,000 miles between February 2025 and May 2026. This recent surge in usage indicates heavy operation, which typically accelerates the wear on consumable items such as tyres, brake components, and suspension bushings. A buyer should specifically inspect the front suspension assembly, particularly the nearside track rod end ball joint, which was previously noted as deteriorated in 2023. The recurring damage to the offside mirror across multiple years suggests potential vulnerability or poor repair quality that should be checked for mounting security. Furthermore, given the previous failure of the tyre pressure monitoring system and missing seat belt buckles, a thorough check of all safety-critical electronics and interior restraints is necessary to ensure no other latent faults remain.
