2014 Vauxhall Corsa 1.2L Petrol · SB64 FSV

The most recent MOT on 2025-10-30 recorded a failure with three specific issues: a slight leak in the washer bottle pump/seal , an inoperative nearside rear registration plate lamp , and a fractured offside front coil spring . These defects indicate potential safety risks, particularly the fractured coil spring, which could compromise suspension integrity and handling. The same date also shows a pass entry, but this may reflect a separate test or administrative error, as the failure details are concrete. Recurring mechanical patterns include tyre wear near legal limits (noted in 2023, 2024, and 2025) and suspension component wear , such as damaged track rod end dust covers (2024) and worn bush top mounts (2022–2024). These suggest ongoing maintenance needs, though most were classified as minor. The 2025 failure introduces a new, more serious defect (coil spring fracture), which may signal worsening structural or suspension health. The condition trend shows stability in minor issues but a potential escalation in critical defects . Tyre wear has persisted annually, while suspension components have required repeated attention. The 2025 coil spring fracture is the first major structural failure recorded, raising concerns about long-term reliability. However, no clear pattern of accelerating deterioration is evident beyond this single issue.
