MOT Analysis

Interpretation generated from the recorded test data above — not an official DVSA statement and not a substitute for an independent inspection.

14 MOT tests are recorded for this 2017 Kia Sportage (RK17 YEC) between October 2018 and March 2026.

The record contains 9 passes and 5 failures.

The most recent test on 30 March 2026 was a pass, although the earlier record includes 5 failures that buyers may want to investigate.

Across all tests, the most frequently flagged areas are: Brakes (10 issues), Tyres (9 issues), Suspension (3 issues), Lighting (2 issues). Repeated mentions in one area can indicate an ongoing pattern worth checking in person.

In total 18 advisory notices are recorded. Advisories flag items that passed but may need attention before the next test; they are not evidence of how well the vehicle has been serviced.

Recorded failure items include: “Nearside Rear Shock absorbers has a serious fluid leak (5.3.2 (b))”; “Nearside Headlamp not working on main beam (4.1.1 (a) (ii))”; “Nearside Headlamp not working on dipped beam (4.1.1 (a) (ii))”.
