However, there are simple checks that you can carry out in advance of your MOT that will help to reduce the risk of avoidable problems.
What Happens If Your Vehicle Fails Its MOT?
If your vehicle fails its MOT, it means the test has found one or more issues that need attention.
Your MOT result may include:
MOT Advisories Explained
If you receive advisories, it does not mean that your vehicle has failed its MOT. It has passed, but we will have found something that is likely to require attention in advance of your next test.
Do not ignore advisory warnings. They are often signs of wear and tear, damage or corrosion, and dealing with them early can help to prevent bigger problems further down the line.
We will explain any advisories clearly, so you know what to monitor and what may need attention.
Can I Drive After a Failed MOT?
This will be dependent on the result of your test. Your vehicle should not be driven until any major defects have been resolved.
In the case that no major defects are listed and your current MOT is still valid, you may be able to take the vehicle away if it is considered to be roadworthy and safe to use.
If you are unsure, always ask us before leaving. We will explain your MOT result to you clearly and help you to understand what it means.
