2017 Suzuki SX4 1.0L Petrol · P66 PAM

The vehicle is currently roadworthy, though the maintenance history reveals a trend of reactive rather than proactive upkeep. The most recent test conducted on 28 July 2026 at 64,325 miles flagged both front and rear brake discs as pitted and scored. While this did not result in a failure, it represents a recurring issue dating back to the 2023 failure, suggesting that the owner waits until components reach a state of significant degradation before performing replacements. The mileage pattern is consistent with a nine-year-old vehicle, averaging approximately 7,100 miles per year. The record shows a period of lower use between November 2020 and August 2021, where the car covered only 3,514 miles. Since then, the mileage accumulation has remained steady, covering roughly 16,000 miles between August 2021 and July 2026. This consistent usage indicates the vehicle is subjected to regular short-distance trips, which explains the consistent wear patterns on tyres and braking components noted in the advisories. A buyer should conduct a close physical inspection of the braking system and suspension assembly. The repeated reports of pitting and scoring on discs across 2023, 2024, and 2026 suggest the calipers may be sticking or that the vehicle sits stationary in damp conditions. Furthermore, the frequent advisories regarding tyres worn to the edge in 2022, 2023, and 2024 indicate a history of neglected alignment checks. Inspect the suspension bushes and ball joints to ensure no underlying alignment issues are causing the observed uneven tyre wear.
