2021 KIA Sorento 4 Phev AWD Auto 1.6L Hybrid electric · PX71 UES

The vehicle maintains a roadworthy status, having passed its most recent inspection on September 5, 2025, 50,406 miles. The maintenance trend appears stable as no major mechanical or structural failures were recorded during this period. However, the presence of a TPMS light during the latest test indicates a persistent electronic sensor or pressure issue that has not yet been rectified, even though it did not result in a test failure. The mileage accumulation is consistent with a five-year-old hybrid vehicle, averaging approximately 10,000 miles per annum. Between the August 2024 test at 41,849 miles and the September 2025 test at 50,406 miles, the car covered 8,557 miles in just thirteen months. This suggests regular use rather than long periods of inactivity, which is generally beneficial for the health of rubber components and the prevention of seizing in the braking system. A buyer should specifically inspect the braking system during a physical viewing. The 2024 test flagged the nearside rear inner brake pads as wearing thin, and it is vital to verify that these were actually replaced and that the corresponding caliper is not sticking. Given the TPMS light reported in the 2025 record, a diagnostic scan is necessary to determine if the fault is a faulty sensor or a slow leak in the tyre, as ignoring this can lead to uneven tyre wear over time.
