2015 Mazda 6 2.2L Diesel · SM15 OCC

The vehicle's overall roadworthiness is currently PASSED, though the MOT history reveals a clear deterioration trend regarding suspension components and structural integrity. The most recent test on 2026-01-15 at 99,008 miles was passed, but this date is only 10 days prior to today, indicating a very recent and potentially unstable test record that must be scrutinized for accuracy or tampering. The mileage pattern suggests a significant gap in maintenance that may have accelerated wear, particularly in the rear suspension where the most severe issues were recorded. There are notable gaps in the MOT record, with the 2024-12-20 test on 89,779 miles occurring 11 days after the 2023-12-15 test, suggesting a possible lapse in routine checks that could have exacerbated the wear patterns observed in the 2023-01-05 test. In conclusion, while the vehicle passes the MOT, the history indicates that the rear suspension and other critical components have been subject to repeated inspection failures, suggesting a lack of proactive upkeep. The dealer must inspect the car for binding rear brakes, loose suspension bushings, and structural corrosion within the rear chassis to determine if the issues are merely minor consumables or represent serious mechanical risks.
