2021 Volvo XC90 Inscrpt PRO B5 Mhev AWD A 2.0L Electric diesel · RO21 BCE

The vehicle remains roadworthy, but the maintenance trend shows a persistent and unresolved issue regarding rear geometry. The most recent test on March 3, 2026 at 34,610 miles passed despite advisories for both nearside and offside rear tyres being worn to the legal limit with significant inner edge wear. This mirrors the findings from the previous inspection in May 2024, indicating that the underlying cause of the uneven wear has not been addressed. The mileage pattern is consistent with a low-useer profile, averaging approximately 7,000 miles per annum. Between the May 2024 test at 28,105 miles and the March 2026 test, the vehicle covered 6,505 miles over nearly 22 months. This low mileage generally suggests less mechanical strain on the drivetrain and engine, yet the recurring tyre faults highlight specific mechanical misalignment despite the low distance driven. A buyer must conduct a thorough physical inspection of the rear suspension and alignment settings. The consistent inner wear on both rear tyres across two years strongly suggests a fault such as worn suspension bushes, bent control arms, or incorrect camber settings. It is also necessary to check for uneven brake pad wear and bearing noise, as these components often suffer alongside geometry issues on heavy SUVs. Resolving the alignment fault is essential to prevent premature replacement of any new tyres.
