Historical MOT pass rates and DVLA records for 2018 model year cars.
- 1.2 PureTech "Wet Belt" DegradationSerious
The timing belt runs in oil and can degrade, shedding debris that blocks the oil pickup. This leads to oil starvation, vacuum pump failure, and a dangerous loss of braking assistance (Recall R/2020/331).
- AdBlue Tank and Pump Failure (BlueHDi)Serious
The AdBlue system on BlueHDi models is prone to pump failure and tank degradation, causing UREA warnings, no-start countdowns and expensive tank replacements.
- i-Cockpit Touchscreen FreezingModerate
The central touchscreen and i-Cockpit display can suffer from software lag, freezing and random reboots, particularly on earlier 2017-2019 models. Dealer firmware updates often help.
