2007 Ford S-MAX 2.0L Diesel · YC07 NHT

The most recent MOT on 2023-01-18 shows a PASS at 142,058 miles. However, this entry conflicts with another record for the same date and mileage, which states a FAIL. This inconsistency suggests potential errors in the MOT history documentation. No defects were recorded in any of the entries, including the failed tests. The vehicle has a pattern of alternating PASS and FAIL results at similar mileages, such as 2020-01-21 (PASSED at 136,066 miles, then FAILED at the same mileage) and 2021-01-22 (FAILED at 142,049 miles). This instability raises concerns about the reliability of the MOT process for this vehicle. The absence of recorded defects in failed tests is unusual and may indicate unresolved issues that were not classified as safety-critical. The mileage of 142,058 miles for a 19-year-old vehicle is roughly average, suggesting typical usage. However, the frequent MOT failures without defects imply potential underlying problems that may not have been fully addressed. The vehicle’s age and mileage could indicate wear on components like brakes, suspension, or electrical systems, but no specific issues are documented.
