2020 Volvo XC90 Momentum PRO B5MHEV AWD A 2.0L Hybrid electric · RO70 HWC

The vehicle is currently roadworthy but the maintenance history shows a concerning trend of deferred suspension repairs. While the most recent test in October 2025 at 80,556 miles passed, it noted slight play in both the nearside and offside front suspension arm ball joints. This specific issue was also flagged during the October 2024 test at 64,943 miles, indicating the owner has failed to replace these components despite multiple annual advisories. The mileage pattern reflects heavy usage, averaging approximately 13,400 miles per year which sits above the national for a six-year-old SUV. The data shows consistent accumulation, with a 15,613-mile interval between the 2024 and 2025 tests. However, the failure in October 2023 at 47,735 miles reveals a period of neglect, as the vehicle was presented with three tyres showing exposed cords and thin rear brake pads. This suggests a reactive rather maintenance approach where basic consumable upkeep was ignored until a test failure forced action. A buyer must conduct a thorough physical inspection of the front suspension, as the persistent play in the ball joints suggests wider wear across the steering geometry and bushings. Given the high mileage and the history of poor tyre management, the current state of all four tyres should be checked for uneven wear or premature thinning. The brake system also requires verification to ensure the pads and discs are not approaching the end of their life, as the 2023 failure indicates a history of not monitoring service intervals.
