2016 Honda Jazz 1.3L Petrol · RE10 AVS

The vehicle remains roadworthy, but the maintenance history reveals a persistent pattern of neglect regarding minor consumable components. While the most recent test in November 2025 at 64,002 miles secured a pass, it highlighted a recurring issue with the offside rear service brake binding. This mechanical fault was also noted during the 2024 test at 58,101 miles, indicating that the underlying caliper or mechanism has not been addressed between inspections. The mileage profile is consistent with a low-use urban vehicle, averaging approximately 6,400 miles per year over the last five years. Data shows steady progression from 40,534 miles in late 2021 to 64,002 miles in late 2025, suggesting regular annual use. However, the low mileage often correlates with age-related degradation of rubber components rather than wear from distance, which is evidenced by the frequent reports of perished tyre rubber and sidewall cracking across every year in the record. A buyer must conduct a thorough inspection of the rear braking system and tyres. The record shows a chronic history of perishing and sidewall damage on the rear tyres, dating back to 2021 and continuing into the 2025 advisory. This suggests the owner has deferred tyre replacements until they reached a legal failure threshold. The recurring binding offside rear brake requires a professional check to ensure the caliper piston is not seized or the slider pins corroded, which will lead to premature disc wear and reduced fuel efficiency if left unmanaged.
