2023 Mazda CX-5 GT Sport 2.0L Petrol · HJ72 MUU

The most recent MOT on 2026-01-21 recorded defects including a nearside front tyre with a nail, a nearside rear brake disc that was worn, pitted, or scored but not seriously weakened, and badly corroded on the outer working surface. The nearside rear outer brake pad was also wearing thin. These issues highlight potential risks to braking performance and safety. The vehicle’s mileage of 19,407 miles at 3 years old aligns with typical usage for its age, averaging around 6,469 miles per year. This suggests no extreme wear from high mileage, but the recorded defects indicate localized issues that require attention. No prior MOT history is available to assess trends, so it is unclear if these defects are isolated or part of a pattern. The primary risks involve the braking system. The corroded and worn brake disc, combined with thin brake pads, could compromise stopping power if not addressed. The tyre with a nail poses a risk of sudden failure, while the brake efforts recorded may indicate uneven wear or mechanical stress. These issues warrant close inspection of the rear braking components.
