2016 Jeep Grand Cherokee 3.0L Diesel · FC16 ACO

The 2016 Jeep Grand Cherokee is currently roadworthy; the most recent MOT on 14 July 2025 recorded a pass with 70 119 miles and no defects, confirming a stable maintenance trend that has resolved earlier tyre advisories. The vehicle’s condition has progressed from the 2023 rear‑tyre perishing and under‑inflation notes to a clean test sheet, indicating that remedial work was undertaken and the fleet is now in a satisfactory state. Mileage accumulation follows a typical pattern for its age: 70 119 miles over roughly ten years equates to about 7 000 miles per annum, a figure that aligns with normal usage for a mid‑size SUV. MOT entries are spaced annually without gaps, and the record is otherwise clean, suggesting regular compliance with testing requirements and no hidden mileage spikes. A prospective buyer should inspect the rear tyres for any signs of cracking, perishing or uneven wear, as the 2023 test flagged these issues and they can be early indicators of under‑inflation or suspension loading problems. Front tyre condition should be examined for edge wear, given the 2021 advisory on the nearside front tyre, and inflation levels checked at the rear, as under‑inflation can affect steering geometry and tyre longevity. Brake components, particularly discs and calipers, merit a close look for corrosion or binding, while suspension bushes and coil springs should be assessed for wear that might not appear on an MOT but could affect ride quality. Finally, a visual scan for structural rust around wheel arches, underbody panels and the exhaust system is advisable, as corrosion can develop between MOT intervals and impact the vehicle’s integrity.
