Ford Edge MOT failures

Tyres is the most common reason a Ford Edge fails its MOT, appearing on 29.6% of failed tests. A failed test can have defects in more than one category, so shares add up to more than 100%. 5.3% of Ford Edge tests found at least one dangerous defect, against 7.3% for all cars.

Most common Ford Edge MOT defects and advisories

The single most common reason a Ford Edge failed its MOT in 2025 was “Brake pads: less than 1.5 mm thick”, on 16.2% of 1,445 failed tests. 41.5% of tests ended with at least one advisory, a problem to watch that did not fail the test; the most common was “Tread depth: worn close to legal limit or worn on edge”. The same fault on any wheel or side counts once.

United Kingdom figures from DfT table VEH0220 (licensed cars at the end of each year, SORN excluded), so they differ slightly from the Great Britain counts elsewhere on this page. How we use engine sizes.

• Official figures from laboratory type-approval tests. VCA says they may not be achieved in real-world driving, and should not be used to rank cars with similar figures.
• NEDC figures (in VCA’s data until September 2018) and WLTP figures (from the 2019 guide) come from different tests, so they are shown separately and should not be compared.
• Engine sizes are rounded to the nearest 0.1 litre. A version is one line in VCA’s data (description, gearbox, engine and fuel), counted once however many years it was listed. Matched from VCA’s model names “Edge Model Year Post 2019¾”, “Edge Model Year Pre 2019¾”, “Edge, Model Year Post 2016”. How we use VCA’s figures.

All 6 Ford Edge recalls, with defects, remedies and build dates

A recall applies to cars built on particular dates or with particular VINs, not to every Ford Edge. The details come from manufacturers through DVSA, which says they may be delayed or incomplete. To check a specific car, use GOV.UK’s vehicle recall check or ask the manufacturer or a dealer. How we match recalls to models.
