CRITICAL AREAS

During the MOT test, several critical areas of your vehicle will be examined to ensure they meet legal requirements:

Body and vehicle structure: Examine for excessive corrosion or damage, ensuring no sharp edges that could cause injury.

Fuel system: Check for leaks and ensure the fuel cap fastens securely.

Exhaust emissions: Ensure the vehicle meets requirements for emissions based on its age and fuel type.

Exhaust system: Ensure it’s secure, complete, without significant leaks, and effectively silences.

Seat belts: Check for correct installation, type, condition, operation, and security. All compulsory seat belts must be in place.

Seats: Confirm that front seats are secure, and that front and rear backseats can be properly secured in the upright position.

By addressing these points before your MOT appointment, you can increase the likelihood of a successful inspection outcome. If you have any questions or concerns, our team is here to assist you.
