2014 DAF Trucks FA CF65 6.7L Diesel · LT14 UEV

The vehicle remains roadworthy, but the maintenance trend shows a shift toward mechanical wear after several clean inspections. The most recent test in March 2026 at 388,870 miles identified new defects including low brake discs on axle 2 and an exhaust leak at the downpipe clamp. This follows two years of no recorded defects in 2024 and 2025, suggesting that the high-mileage components are now reaching their service limits simultaneously. The mileage accumulation is remarkably consistent and high, averaging approximately 32,000 miles per year. Between March 2022 and March 2026, the truck covered 81,895 miles, indicating a heavy-duty operational cycle rather than intermittent use. While this consistency suggests the vehicle was likely used regularly, it also places significant strain on the drivetrain and suspension components. The lack of gaps between tests shows a commitment to the annual testing schedule, which is a positive indicator for a commercial vehicle of this age. A physical inspection must focus on the front suspension and steering geometry, as the record noted play in the nearside front kingpin in 2023. The buyer should verify if the engine area remains dry following the previous oil leak advisory noted in that same year. Furthermore, the recent advisory regarding low brake discs on axle 2 requires a thorough check of the entire braking system to ensure no binding calipers or thinning pads are present. The exhaust leak at the downpipe should be addressed immediately to prevent structural corrosion or emission failures in the future.
