2022 Dacia Sandero Essential LPG TCE 1.0L Gas bi-fuel · DF22 MHA

The vehicle currently fails the MOT due to a recurring failure of the offside front inner tyre, which has been failing since the September 2023 test at 52,000 miles. This indicates an ongoing mechanical trend of wear that has not been resolved, suggesting the owner has likely skipped basic tyre maintenance or used the vehicle for less than average distance. The most recent test at 16,384 miles was passed, but the failure of the offside tyre at that same mileage confirms that the wear has accelerated significantly since the initial inspection. The mileage accumulation is substantial, averaging approximately 4,096 miles per year. While the vehicle is only about four years old, the sheer volume of recorded miles indicates that the owner has maintained the car at a high speed, leading to rapid degradation of the drivetrain components and suspension bushings. This pattern suggests that the owner has likely been using the car heavily or for extended periods without taking preventative measures, such as changing tyres or tightening suspension components, which would have prevented the current failure modes from occurring. Given the recurring failure of the offside front inner tyre and the lack of resolution to this issue, the vehicle is not roadworthy. The owner must inspect the rear suspension bushes and binding calipers for corrosion or binding, as these are the primary components prone to failure under the current wear pattern. Additionally, the exhaust emissions and structural integrity of the chassis must be evaluated, as the repeated failure of the inner tyre suggests that the drivetrain is under significant stress and may require immediate professional assessment.
