EN54 VLU MOT History
Interpretation generated from the recorded test data above — not an official DVSA statement and not a substitute for an independent inspection.
23 MOT tests are recorded for this 2004 Hyundai Getz (EN54 VLU) between December 2007 and January 2022.
The record contains 15 passes and 8 failures.
The most recent test on 24 January 2022 was a pass, although the earlier record includes 8 failures that buyers may want to investigate.
Across all tests, the most frequently flagged areas are: Brakes (12 issues), Tyres (10 issues), Lighting (8 issues), Windscreen (4 issues), Suspension (4 issues). Repeated mentions in one area can indicate an ongoing pattern worth checking in person.
In total 34 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 Front Front wheel bearing has excessive play (2.5.A.3c)”; “Rear Brakes imbalanced across an axle Axle 2 (3.7.B.5b)”; “Nearside Front Tyre tread depth below requirements of 1.6mm (4.1.E.1)”.
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.
