2021 Citroen Dispatch 1000 ENT PRO B-HDI SS 1.5L Diesel · LB71 CXF

The most recent MOT on 2024-10-29 resulted in a pass, but this was a retest of a retest. The prior two MOTs on 2024-10-28 both failed at the same mileage of 104,779 miles, indicating persistent issues. Key failures included non-functional stop lamps, a defective daytime running lamp, worn brake discs and pads, a flat spare tyre, and an inoperative Engine MIL. These problems suggest ongoing maintenance needs rather than a single isolated incident. The recurring mechanical pattern centers on brake system degradation and lighting faults. Front and rear brake pads were described as “wearing thin,” while the front disc was “worn, pitted or scored.” These issues pose safety risks and imply insufficient brake component replacement. Lighting failures, such as non-functional stop lamps and a daytime running lamp, could compromise visibility and compliance. The flat spare tyre and inoperative Engine MIL further highlight neglect in basic vehicle upkeep. The trend shows no clear improvement. Both failed MOTs occurred at the same mileage, and the retest pass does not confirm resolution of underlying issues.
