2019 Honda CR-V 2.0L Hybrid electric (clean) · HG19 TTK

Recurring tyre wear on the nearside rear wheel dominates the mechanical narrative of this 2019 Honda CR‑V. The vehicle has passed each of its five recorded MOTs, with the latest inspection on 28 April 2026 confirming a pass, but both the 2025‑04‑22 and 2026‑04‑28 tests recorded an advisory that the nearside rear tyre is worn close to the legal limit and shows edge wear. Earlier examinations in 2022, 2023 and 2024 reported no defects, indicating that the tyre wear issue has emerged only in the most recent two years. At 35 954 mi the car averages roughly 5 100 mi per annum, a mileage level that is low for a seven‑year‑old vehicle. Such a modest annual accumulation suggests limited overall wear on drivetrain, suspension and braking components, but it also raises the possibility of extended periods of low‑usage or storage, which can affect rubber elasticity and tyre ageing. The consistent annual MOT schedule shows no gaps, confirming that the vehicle has been regularly tested and any emerging issues have been captured promptly. When inspecting the nearside rear tyre, verify tread depth with a gauge; it should be at least 1.6 mm across the tread face and uniform around the circumference. Look for sidewall cracks, bulges or exposed cords that could indicate ageing beyond simple tread loss. Uneven wear patterns may point to mis‑alignment, worn suspension bushes or damaged steering components, so during a test drive listen for a humming or knocking noise over bumps and feel for any pull to one side when the steering wheel is centred. A quick visual check of the wheel rim for bends or corrosion, and a brief shake of the wheel to assess bearing play, will help confirm the condition of the hub assembly. All other MOT items have remained free of defects, meaning lights, emissions, brakes and structural elements have met the required standards throughout the recorded period. Nevertheless, a prospective buyer should still perform a standard road‑test brake assessment—checking for pedal feel, any pulsation or squeal—and confirm that all lights illuminate correctly. Given the tyre advisory, budgeting for a rear tyre replacement and a possible alignment service would be prudent to maintain full roadworthiness.
