2019 Toyota Yaris 1.5L Hybrid electric · KV19 FWH

The vehicle remains roadworthy, but the maintenance history shows a worsening trend regarding component wear and neglect. While the most recent test in May 2026 at 45,504 miles passed, the tester again flagged both rear brake discs as pitted and scored. This is a recurring issue from the May 2025 test at 40,298 miles, indicating that the previous owner failed to replace these components despite the repeated advisory. The mileage pattern is remarkably consistent for a seven-year-old vehicle, averaging approximately 6,500 miles per annum. The data shows a steady progression between 2022 and 2026 without any unexplained gaps in recorded use. However, the jump from 22,416 miles in 2022 to 34,456 miles in 2024 represents a slight increase in annual usage compared to the earlier years, which coincides with the appearance of the first recorded mechanical defects like the shock absorber and thin brake pads. A buyer must specifically inspect the rear braking system, as the persistent pitting on the discs suggests they are nearing the end of their effective life. The misting the offside front shock absorber noted in 2024 also requires a physical check to ensure the seal has not developed a significant leak. Furthermore, the TPMS warning light reported in 2025 should be verified to ensure a sensor is not faulty or losing pressure, as this remains an unresolved electronic fault in the record.
