Historical MOT pass rates and DVLA records for 2016 model year cars.
- MultiAir / TwinAir Actuator FailureSerious
The hydraulic valve control system is sensitive to oil quality. Sludge build-up causes the unit to fail, requiring full replacement.
- Tailgate Wiring Loom DamageModerate
Wires inside the rubber boot between the body and tailgate snap over time due to repeated opening.
- Front suspension bush and ball-joint wearModerate
Front suspension bushes and ball joints wear prematurely on the facelifted 500, causing knocking over bumps and vague steering. The bumper often needs removing to access the bushes, pushing up labour costs.
