Nissan 350 MOT failures

Lamps, reflectors and electrical equipment is the most common reason a Nissan 350 fails its MOT, appearing on 36.0% of failed tests.

Most common Nissan 350 MOT defects and advisories

The single most common reason a Nissan 350 failed its MOT in 2025 was “Catalyst emissions: lambda reading after 2nd fast idle outside specified limits”, on 13.0% of 1,276 failed tests. 53.9% 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.

• 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.
• 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 name “350Z”. How we use VCA’s figures.

Nissan 350 safety recalls

We found no recalls for the Nissan 350 in DVSA’s records since 1992. That does not mean none apply: DVSA sometimes records a recall under a range or chassis name we cannot match to a model. Check a specific car on GOV.UK’s vehicle recall check.

A recall applies to cars built on particular dates or with particular VINs, not to every Nissan 350. 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.
