2015 Jeep Grand Cherokee 3.0L Diesel · NG15 OLP

This 2015 Grand Cherokee passed its most recent MOT on 22 May 2026 with 127,006 miles recorded. However, the test revealed a concerning cluster of wear-related advisories that paint a picture of an ageing vehicle approaching some significant maintenance thresholds. The most pressing issue is brake wear. The nearside rear brake disc is worn, pitted, and scored, and the rear brake pads are wearing thin. These are not yet failures, but they signal that the braking system is nearing the point where replacement will be needed soon. This is a safety-critical system, and delaying work here is unwise. Tyre wear is the second major pattern. All four tyres are now worn close to the legal limit, with uneven edge wear noted on multiple occasions. The 2025 records show an offside rear tyre with a cut deep enough to reach the cords—a serious defect that required replacement before the retest. The fact that tyre wear is recurring and now affecting all four wheels at once suggests either aggressive driving, poor wheel alignment, under-inflation, or simply that the tyres are original or very old and have reached the end of their service life simultaneously.
