Historical MOT pass rates and DVLA records for 2018 model year cars.
- Rear Axle Bush WearModerate
Same twist-beam design as the 500, with the same rubber degradation issues.
- Rear differential oil weep (4x4 models)Moderate
The rear differential on Cross and 4x4 Pandas can weep oil from worn or damaged seals. Severe leaks may require a full differential replacement, while minor weeping can be solved with a new seal.
- TwinAir timing-cover oil leakModerate
The 0.9 TwinAir engine can develop oil leaks from the timing cover area due to poor factory sealing. This leaves oily patches under the front of the engine and can lead to oil loss if not resealed.
