2019 Ford Ecosport 1.0L Petrol · SH69 NHU

The vehicle is currently roadworthy, but the maintenance history reveals a recent lapse in preventative care. While the car passed its latest MOT on 27 April 2026 at 55,590 miles, it initially failed the test that same day due to critical front brake components. The tester identified front brake pads below the legal 1.5mm limit alongside a significantly worn nearside front brake disc and a pitted, scored offside disc. The mileage pattern remains consistent with typical light-use usage, averaging approximately 8,000 miles per year over its seven-year life. The record shows steady progression from 44,375 miles in May 2024 to 49,325 miles in April 2025, reaching 55,590 miles by the April 2026 test. This suggests the vehicle has not been subjected to heavy stress, though the sudden failure in 2026 indicates that the owner neglected routine replacement of wear items until they reached a point of failure. A buyer must personally verify that the front brake system was fully refurbished following the April 2026 failure. The report noted issues on both pads and discs, implying a full front axle overhaul was necessary rather than a simple pad change. You should also inspect the brake calipers for signs of sticking, which may have caused the uneven pitting and scoring on the discs. Given the low mileage, check the suspension bushes and rubber seals for perishing or cracking, as these components can age faster than they wear out on vehicles driven infrequently.
