MOT Analysis

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

16 MOT tests are recorded for this 2010 Kia Sorento (SW10 BJY) between May 2013 and December 2022.

The record contains 10 passes and 6 failures.

The most recent test on 22 December 2022 was a pass, although the earlier record includes 6 failures that buyers may want to investigate.

Across all tests, the most frequently flagged areas are: Tyres (20 issues), Suspension (10 issues), Brakes (9 issues), Lighting (7 issues), Windscreen (2 issues). Repeated mentions in one area can indicate an ongoing pattern worth checking in person.

In total 33 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: “Parking brake efficiency less than 50% of the required value (1.4.2 (a) (ii))”; “Rear Parking brake efficiency below requirements (1.4.2 (a) (i))”; “Front Windscreen washer jets misaligned and not providing sufficient fluid to the windscreen (3.5 (a))”.
