MOT Analysis

Interpretation generated from the recorded test data above — not an official DVSA statement and not a substitute for an independent inspection.

12 MOT tests are recorded for this 2010 Kia Sportage (SM10 EKC) between April 2013 and August 2022.

The record contains 10 passes and 2 failures.

Across all tests, the most frequently flagged areas are: Tyres (8 issues), Brakes (5 issues), Exhaust & Emissions (5 issues), Lighting (5 issues), Suspension (4 issues). Repeated mentions in one area can indicate an ongoing pattern worth checking in person.

In total 21 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: “Nearside Front Suspension arm pin or bush excessively worn (5.3.4 (a) (i))”; “Offside Front Track rod end ball joint has excessive play (2.1.3 (b) (i))”; “Rear Exhaust has a major leak of exhaust gases (6.1.2 (a))”.
