2009 Ford Fusion 1.6L Diesel · FN09 OKJ

The 2009 Ford Fusion presents a stable and improving maintenance trend, culminating in a clean pass on 3 September 2024 at 112,870 miles with zero defects recorded. Prior to this, the vehicle passed its August 2022 and August 2021 tests at 99,880 and 96,264 miles respectively, also without any faults. The record indicates a vehicle that has recently required no remedial mechanical or structural work to meet minimum safety standards. The annual mileage accumulation sits at roughly 6,639 miles per year, which aligns with typical light-to-moderate use for a vehicle of this age. Between the August 2022 test at 99,880 miles and the August 2023 test at 105,118 miles, the car covered 5,238 miles over a twelve-month period. The most recent year shows a slightly higher accumulation of 7,752 miles between the August 2023 and September 2024 tests. A slight anomaly exists in the August 2023 record, where a failed test at 105,118 miles is immediately followed by a pass at the exact same mileage on the same day, with no defects listed for either entry, suggesting an administrative correction or an immediate retest of a minor issue not formally recorded. Despite the clean MOT record, a physical inspection remains essential for a 17-year-old vehicle. Buyers should examine the structural integrity of the underbody and suspension mounting points for corrosion, as age-related rust can develop independently of MOT advisories. The condition of consumable components such as tyres, brake discs, and suspension bushes warrants close scrutiny, given the 7,752 miles covered in the last year. While the absence of recorded defects implies the previous owner addressed immediate safety concerns, a thorough assessment of the exhaust system and steering components will confirm whether this low-mileage pattern has preserved the mechanicals or merely deferred routine wear.
