2021 Ford Transit 350 Leader Ecoblue 2.0L Diesel · WR71 EAM

The vehicle is currently roadworthy, showing an improving maintenance trend following a previous failure. The most recent test conducted in November 2025 at 115,514 miles resulted in a clean pass, indicating that the issues identified in the prior year were addressed. This transition from a failure to a clean pass suggests the owner took the necessary action to rectify mechanical and safety concerns once flagged by the tester. The mileage profile reflects high-intensity use for a vehicle of this age, averaging approximately 23,000 miles per year. Between December 2024 and November 2025, the Ford Transit covered 24,139 miles in just under eleven months. This rapid accumulation suggests consistent commercial or heavy fleet usage, which typically accelerates the wear on drivetrain and suspension components. The consistency in the mileage intervals indicates the vehicle is in regular daily use rather than sitting stationary for long periods. A physical inspection should focus on the suspension system and front-end components. The December 2024 record flagged a light misting of oil on the offside rear shock absorber; while this did not cause a failure, it indicates the beginning of a seal failure that requires monitoring. The previous failure regarding a perished and worn nearside front tyre also highlights that basic consumable maintenance has been neglected in the past. A buyer should verify the current condition of all four tyres and ensure the alignment is correct, given the uneven wear previously noted in the advisories.
