Historical MOT pass rates and DVLA records for 2010 model year cars.
- Electronic Parking Brake Actuator FailureModerate
The rear EPB motors and mechanisms can seize or fail electrically, causing MOT trouble and sometimes leaving the brake stuck on.
- Boxer Diesel Crankshaft FailureSerious
The EE20 diesel remains the BR Outback’s biggest financial risk, with crankshaft or bottom-end failure capable of wiping out the value of the car.
- Front Control Arm Bushing WearModerate
The front lower arm rear bushes soften and split, leaving the big estate feeling vague and noisy on poor UK roads.
