2014 Tesla Model S Electric · LC64 OTN

This 2014 Tesla Model S has a recent MOT pass from February 2026, but the history shows a clear and worsening pattern regarding the braking system. While the vehicle has been used at a typical rate of approximately 10,000 miles per year, the mechanical wear is becoming more frequent and more comprehensive. The most significant risk pattern is the recurring deterioration of the brakes. Over the last three years, there has been a consistent cycle of pitting, scoring, and thinning of both brake discs and pads across the front and rear axles. The failure in February 2026, which required new tyres and addressed worn pads and discs, suggests that maintenance on consumables is currently reactive rather than proactive. The vehicle's condition trend appears to be worsening. In 2024, the car had no recorded defects, but since then, the frequency and variety of advisories and failures have increased. We have moved from isolated issues like a single anti-roll bar joint in 2023 to a multi-component braking and tyre failure in 2026. The mileage of 121,404 is consistent with its age, implying regular road use rather than long periods of sitting. This steady usage explains the predictable wear on consumables, but the recent cluster of defects suggests the car may be due for a more thorough inspection of its suspension and chassis components to ensure no further deterioration has occurred.
