2026 Hyundai Tucson N Line Edtion Phev Auto 1.5L Hybrid electric (clean) · MA08 CAA

The vehicle is currently roadworthy, having passed its most recent inspection in March 2026 at 89,213 miles. However, the maintenance trend shows a reactive pattern rather than preventative care. While the car passed the latest test, the history reveals a significant failure just two years prior where multiple mechanical and suspension faults were addressed simultaneously. The presence of a corroded offside rear brake pipe in the 2026 advisory indicates that surface corrosion remains an ongoing concern despite the repairs performed. At 89,213 miles over 14 years, the Qashqai averages approximately 6,372 miles per year. This low usage is consistent with typical domestic use for a family vehicle. The record shows steady mileage accumulation, with roughly 6,200 miles driven between February 2025 and March 2026, and approximately 5,500 miles between March 2024 and February 2025. This regular interval suggests the vehicle has not sat for long periods, which generally helps brake seals and rubber components. A buyer must conduct a close physical inspection of the front suspension and braking system. The 2024 failure highlighted both front suspension arm bushes and a fractured offside coil spring, indicating the lower assembly is reaching the end of its service life due to age. Furthermore, the 2026 advisory regarding the corroded offside rear brake pipe requires a thorough check of the entire fluid line network to ensure corrosion has not progressed to a point of failure, as the tester has already flagged material degradation in this area. The exhaust heat shield should also be checked for secure mounting, as this was a recurring point of concern.
