Across all tests, the most frequently flagged areas are: Brakes (6 issues), Tyres (3 issues), Exhaust & Emissions (2 issues), Suspension (2 issues). Repeated mentions in one area can indicate an ongoing pattern worth checking in person.
In total 10 advisory notices are recorded. Advisories flag items that passed but may need attention before the next test; they are not evidence of how well the vehicle has been serviced.
Recorded failure items include: “Nearside Rear Tyre has a tear, caused by separation or partial failure of its structure (5.2.3 (d) (ii))”; “Offside Rear Brake pipe excessively corroded (1.1.11 (c))”; “Battery insecure and likely to cause a short circuit (4.13 (a) (ii))”.
Common Problems: HYUNDAI GETZ
Known issues reported by owners and MOT testers.
- Clutch release-bearing and cable wear(Moderate)
Urban Getz models often need a clutch earlier than expected, with noisy release bearings and heavy or inconsistent pedal action as the usual warning signs.
- Brake-pipe and subframe corrosion(Serious)
The shells hold up fairly well, but UK road salt attacks exposed brake pipes, subframe edges and mounting points. Neglected cars can move from advisories to MOT failures quickly.
