MOT Analysis

Interpretation generated from the recorded test data above — not an official DVSA statement and not a substitute for an independent inspection.

17 MOT tests are recorded for this 2012 Hyundai Santa Fe (L28 YSE) between August 2015 and June 2025.

The record contains 11 passes and 6 failures.

The most recent test on 27 June 2025 was a pass, although the earlier record includes 6 failures that buyers may want to investigate.

Across all tests, the most frequently flagged areas are: Lighting (11 issues), Tyres (8 issues), Brakes (3 issues). Repeated mentions in one area can indicate an ongoing pattern worth checking in person.
