Historical MOT pass rates and DVLA records for 2020 model year cars.
- 4xe 12V Battery Parasitic DrainSerious
The Telematics Box Module (TBM) can stay "awake," draining the 12V battery completely overnight. This is especially common if the vehicle is left plugged into a charger after reaching 100%.
- 9-Speed Auto Transmission (ZF 9HP) GlitchesModerate
The 9-speed automatic can be jerky and hesitant, particularly in the lower gears. Early models suffered from poor software calibration.
- Electrical System "Phantoms"Moderate
Random warning lights for airbags, ABS, or ESP that disappear and reappear without a clear mechanical fault, often caused by sensitive voltage thresholds.
