2020 Toyota Yaris 1.5L Hybrid electric · PE20 PCX

The vehicle remains roadworthy, though the maintenance trend shows a shift toward minor component-related wear. The most recent test in January 2026 at 22,365 miles flagged pitting and scoring on both front and rear brake discs. While these did not cause a failure, this departure from the clean 2024 and 2023 records indicates that the braking system is beginning to show signs of surface degradation consistent with low usage. The mileage profile is notably low for a six-year-old vehicle, averaging approximately 3,728 miles per year. There is a significant gap between the December 2023 test at 15,475 miles and the December 2024 test at 19,022 miles, where only 3,547 miles were covered over twelve months. This pattern suggests the car sits for long periods, which often leads to the surface corrosion observed on brake components and the uneven wear issues noted in the mid-2023 inspection. A buyer should specifically inspect the braking system for uneven wear or seized calipers, as the record from May 2023 previously revealed a nearside rear brake disc with an ineffective pad and uneven friction. The recent pitting on all discs suggests the metal surfaces are not being used frequently enough to clear surface rust. Additionally, the front suspension geometry should be verified, as the 2023 failure noted tyres worn on the inner and outer edges, which typically points to an alignment issue or worn suspension bushes rather than simple mileage wear.
