Across all tests, the most frequently flagged areas are: Lighting (7 issues), Tyres (6 issues), Brakes (4 issues), Exhaust & Emissions (2 issues), Windscreen (2 issues). Repeated mentions in one area can indicate an ongoing pattern worth checking in person.
In total 17 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: “Offside Rear Outer Integral body structure corroded to the extent that the rigidity of the assembly is significantly red”; “Nearside Rear Registration plate lamp does not illuminate simultaneously with the position lamps (4.7.2 (a))”; “Nearside Front Inner Tyre has ply or cords exposed (5.2.3 (d) (ii))”.
Common Problems: HYUNDAI GETZ
Known issues reported by owners and MOT testers.
- Clutch release-bearing and cable wear(Moderate)
Urban Getz models often need a clutch earlier than expected, with noisy release bearings and heavy or inconsistent pedal action as the usual warning signs.
- Brake-pipe and subframe corrosion(Serious)
The shells hold up fairly well, but UK road salt attacks exposed brake pipes, subframe edges and mounting points. Neglected cars can move from advisories to MOT failures quickly.
