2019 Jeep Compass 1.4L Petrol · EY19 AAX

The vehicle currently meets roadworthiness standards for the 2026 test, but the maintenance record indicates a clear deterioration trend in the suspension and braking systems. The most recent test recorded on 2026-05-18 at 40,821 miles was passed, yet this date falls more than two years after the initial MOT, suggesting the vehicle has been in storage for significant time. This extended absence of regular inspections allows wear on critical components to accumulate, particularly the suspension bushings and coil springs, which have been noted as the primary area of concern. The mileage pattern reveals a distinct gap between the initial MOT and the most recent test, with the 2026-05-18 test occurring at 40,821 miles. This accumulation of miles since the first MOT suggests that the vehicle has been driven less frequently or for longer periods than usual, which can lead to uneven wear on suspension components. The lack of a test between 2024-05-03 and 2023-05-24 creates a significant gap, where the vehicle remained in service without any recorded faults or maintenance interventions. This period of inactivity has allowed wear on the front and offside rear tyres to progress to the edge of the legal limit, indicating that the vehicle has been subjected to increased load during the absence of regular checks. Given the specific faults recorded, the buyer must inspect the vehicle in person to identify the extent of the structural integrity issues and assess the condition of the suspension bushings and coil springs. The front windscreen damage and the worn brake discs are critical findings that require immediate attention, as these components are subject to high stress during daily driving. The fact that the tyre wear is close to the legal limit but still present suggests that the vehicle has been subjected to more frequent use or higher loads than anticipated, which could compromise the structural integrity of the suspension and braking system. A thorough visual inspection is required to determine if the brakes are still functioning correctly or if they have become excessively worn, as the history indicates the front brake disc was worn only slightly on the lip.
