About This Data

The 2020 Honda Stream has an MOT pass rate of 77.4% based on 31 tests — well above the UK average for UK vehicles. Cars of this vintage present for MOT with an average of 96,556 miles on the odometer. With a 22.6% failure rate, the 2020 Stream is rated as "Excellent" for MOT reliability.

If you own or are considering buying a 2020 Honda Stream, you can expect reliable MOT performance overall. Before your MOT, pay particular attention to tyres: Check tread depth with a 20p coin — if the outer band is visible, the tyre is too worn. Look for bulges, cuts, or embedded objects. Ensure all tyres match the recommended size and load rating. With an average mileage of 96,556 miles, these vehicles are in the higher-mileage bracket where wear-related failures become more common.

Tyres — 51.6% of failures

Tyres issues account for 51.6% of MOT failures on 2020 Honda Stream models. Tyre failures include tread depth below the legal minimum of 1.6mm, cuts, bulges, exposed cords, and incorrect tyre pressure. Tyres are one of the most common and easiest-to-prevent MOT failures. Typical repair costs: £50–200 per tyre. Pre-MOT check: Check tread depth with a 20p coin — if the outer band is visible, the tyre is too worn. Look for bulges, cuts, or embedded objects. Ensure all tyres match the recommended size and load rating.

Steering — 12.9% of failures

Steering issues account for 12.9% of MOT failures on 2020 Honda Stream models. Steering failures include excessive play in the steering wheel, leaking power steering fluid, worn track rod ends, and damaged steering rack. These affect vehicle control and are closely related to suspension wear. Typical repair costs: £150–600. Pre-MOT check: Check for excessive steering wheel play (more than a few inches of free movement). Listen for whining from the power steering pump. Look for fluid leaks under the car near the front wheels.

Lamps, reflectors and electrical equipment — 9.7% of failures

Lamps, reflectors and electrical equipment issues account for 9.7% of MOT failures on 2020 Honda Stream models. Lighting failures cover all external lights: headlights, tail lights, brake lights, indicators, fog lights, and reflectors. A single blown bulb will cause an MOT fail. This is one of the most preventable failure categories. Typical repair costs: £5–50. Pre-MOT check: Walk around the car and check every light — headlights (dipped and main beam), side lights, tail lights, brake lights, indicators, hazard lights, reverse light, rear fog light, and number plate lights. Replace any blown bulbs before the test.
