2020 Hyundai Tucson 1.6L Petrol · FN20 LKP

The vehicle remains roadworthy, but the maintenance history reveals a consistent trend of neglected tyre-related issues. While the most recent test in February 2026 at 47,109 miles passed, the tester flagged multiple defects regarding tyre condition and wear. This follows a pattern seen in March 2025, where the vehicle initially failed due to headlight aim and several tyre-related advisories before being rectified for the re-test. At 47,109 miles over six years, the Tucson has averaged approximately 7,850 miles per year, which aligns with typical national averages for a modern SUV. The data shows a steady usage pattern, with roughly 3,500 miles driven between March 2024 and March 2025, and another 3,445 miles covered between March 2025 and February 2026. This consistent mileage suggests the vehicle is not sitting for long periods, though the recurring faults indicate that the owner has deferred routine maintenance on consumable items. A buyer must conduct a thorough inspection of the wheel alignment and suspension geometry. The repeated reports of inner edge wear and miss-shaping in 2025 suggest a persistent tracking issue or worn suspension bushes that have not been properly addressed. Furthermore, the recurring mention of cracking and perishing on the tyres across three years indicates that the rubber is reaching the end of its structural life despite having sufficient tread depth, necessitating an immediate replacement. The water ingress in the nearside rear outer lamp noted in 2025 should also be checked for internal corrosion or electrical failure within the housing.
