This 2013 Ford has 16 MOT tests on record with a 69% pass rate and 32,058 miles. The vehicle's mileage trajectory is also highly irregular, with a significant spike in annual usage after 13 years, raising serious questions about its maintenance and true condition.

The vehicle shows normal annual usage of 11,520 miles/year from 2013 to 2016, but then exhibits a significant spike to 25,724 miles/year between 2023 and 2024, followed by a return to normal usage.

Things to check

  • Recurring major emissions failures (Feb 2019, Apr 2023, Mar 2026) and advisories (Feb 2019, Apr 2023) indicate a chronic underlying issue.
  • Multiple suspension and steering failures (Feb 2019, Apr 2023, Mar 2026) and advisories (Feb 2019, Apr 2023) suggest a pattern of structural neglect.
  • The vehicle's mileage trajectory is highly irregular, with a significant spike in annual usage (25,724 miles/year) between 2023 and 2024, raising concerns about its true condition.
  • A DANGEROUS defect for an exhaust leak was noted in Feb 2019, which escalated to a MAJOR failure in Mar 2026, indicating a persistent and worsening problem.
