2020 Ford Kuga 2.0L Diesel · KN20 MDU

This vehicle has a clean MOT history until its most recent test in March 2026, where it passed but flagged two tyre defects. Both the offside rear and offside front tyres are worn on their inner edges, which is a clear sign of a tracking or alignment problem. This is the only mechanical issue recorded across all four years of tests, so the overall condition trend has been stable and then slightly worsened with this new alignment-related wear. The mileage of roughly 11,540 miles per year is typical for a six-year-old car, so there is no strong evidence of excessive wear from high mileage or damage from long periods of standing. The pattern of inner-edge tyre wear, however, suggests the front and rear suspension geometry may be out of specification, possibly from a kerb impact or simply neglected alignment checks. This is not a critical safety failure yet, but if left uncorrected it will destroy the tyres prematurely and could affect steering precision and braking stability. A buyer should first inspect the inner edges of both offside tyres for uneven tread depth and any visible feathering or scalloping. Check the condition of the suspension components, particularly the lower arms, track rod ends, and rear axle alignment, for any signs of damage or looseness. A full four-wheel alignment check should be a priority after purchase to prevent further tyre damage and ensure even wear going forward.
