2018 Tesla Model S Electricity · MF68 SNV

The most recent MOT on 2026-05-08 recorded a pass at 93,827 miles, but noted unassessable brake pad wear and rear anti-roll bar linkage pin/bush wear . A prior failed MOT on 2026-05-07, also at the same mileage, highlighted low headlamp aim , rear anti-roll bar linkage wear , and unassessable brake pads . These issues suggest unresolved mechanical concerns, with the anti-roll bar component appearing repeatedly problematic. Recurring patterns include rear brake pad wear (noted in 2025-09-02 and 2024-09-18) and tyre wear (tyres near legal limits in 2025-09-02). While the latest MOT did not explicitly mention tyres, the persistence of brake and suspension issues over multiple years indicates ongoing wear . The 2026-05-07 failed MOT’s emphasis on anti-roll bar linkage wear suggests a potential safety risk, as this component affects handling and stability. The vehicle’s mileage of 93,827 miles over 8 years equates to ~11,728 miles annually, which is typical for its age . This does not strongly indicate excessive wear or under-use, but the repeated issues with brakes and tyres may reflect higher-than-average usage or inconsistent maintenance. The 2024-09-18 MOT also noted a damaged front tyre and worn front brake disc , hinting at possible long-term stress on components. The trend shows no clear improvement in critical areas.
