What Ford Transit Custom 300trnd Eblue A failures look like

1,210 Ford Transit Custom 300trnd Eblue A tests on record carry the manual reference DVSA attaches to each defect. The most frequent problems were with axles, wheels, tyres and suspension on 296 tests (24.5%), with lamps, reflectors and electrical equipment on 236 tests (19.5%) and with brakes on 230 tests (19.0%). A test can fail on more than one thing, and an MOT can be failed on one defect while another is only advised, so these counts do not add up to the number of tests.

Narrowed down from the categories to the individual defects themselves, three come up on more than one test:

  • Tyre worn close to legal limit/worn on edge

    MOT inspection manual reference 5.2.3, in axles, wheels, tyres and suspension

    Recorded on 266 of the 1,210 tests: 54 failures and 212 advisories or minors.

  • Brake pad(s) wearing thin

    MOT inspection manual reference 1.1.13, in brakes

  • Windscreen damaged but not adversely affecting driver's view

    MOT inspection manual reference 3.2, in visibility

    Recorded on 78 of the 1,210 tests: all of them advisories or minors, so none of them failed a test on its own.

Where there is enough data to compare: Ford Fiesta (15,224,586 tests), Ford Focus (10,916,977 tests), Ford Transit (6,915,501 tests), Ford Mondeo (2,597,657 tests), every Ford model (52,350,530 tests).

Clauses are read from the manual reference at the end of every defect on the cached test records, and a defect shown here has to appear on at least two of them before it is named. The site-wide breakdown explains how that works and compares every make.
