Tyres — 3.5% of failures
Tyres issues account for 3.5% of MOT failures on the Mercedes-Benz Eqe 300 Amg Line. 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.
Non-component advisories — 0.3% of failures
Non-component advisories issues account for 0.3% of MOT failures on the Mercedes-Benz Eqe 300 Amg Line. Non-component advisories issues are a common cause of MOT failure. Regular inspection and maintenance of these components helps ensure your vehicle passes its MOT. Typical repair costs: £100–400. Pre-MOT check: Have this system checked during regular servicing. Look for warning signs like unusual noises, vibrations, or dashboard warning lights.
Seat belts and supplementary restraint systems — 0.1% of failures
Seat belts and supplementary restraint systems issues account for 0.1% of MOT failures on the Mercedes-Benz Eqe 300 Amg Line. Seat belt failures include frayed or cut webbing, faulty retractors, buckles that don't latch properly, and missing or damaged anchorages. All fitted seat belts must be functional. Typical repair costs: £50–200 per belt. Pre-MOT check: Pull each seat belt fully out and check for fraying, cuts, or fading. Ensure each belt retracts smoothly and the buckle clicks securely.
