2022 Ford Mondeo 2.0L Hybrid electric · EK22 UVC

The most recent MOT, conducted on 2026-03-11 at 44,275 miles, showed the vehicle passed but highlighted two key issues: the nearside front tyre was worn close to the legal limit, and both rear brake pads were wearing thin. These findings suggest ongoing maintenance needs, particularly for braking components. The tyre’s condition may indicate insufficient tread depth, which could compromise safety in wet conditions. The 2025-03-12 MOT, at 31,269 miles, also passed but noted the vehicle was tested in electric mode. While this detail is unclear without further context, it does not directly signal mechanical risks. However, the recurring mention of thin rear brake pads in the 2026 test implies a pattern of wear that may not have been fully addressed. Brake pad wear can accelerate with frequent stop-start driving or heavy use, which might align with the vehicle’s mileage trend. The vehicle’s mileage of 44,275 miles over four years averages 11,069 miles per year, which is typical for its age. However, the jump from 31,269 miles (2025) to 44,275 miles (2026) suggests a significant increase in usage over the past year. This could contribute to accelerated wear on consumables like brakes and tyres, though the mileage remains within a reasonable range.
