About This Data
The 2011 Mitsubishi Fuso Canter has an MOT pass rate of 67.7% based on 1,243 tests — slightly above the UK average for UK vehicles. Cars of this vintage present for MOT with an average of 96,795 miles on the odometer. With a 32.3% failure rate, the 2011 Canter is rated as "Good" for MOT reliability.
If you own or are considering buying a 2011 Mitsubishi Fuso Canter, you can expect reliable MOT performance overall. Before your MOT, pay particular attention to lamps, reflectors and electrical equipment: 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. With an average mileage of 96,795 miles, these vehicles are in the higher-mileage bracket where wear-related failures become more common.
Lamps, reflectors and electrical equipment — 1.6% of failures
Lamps, reflectors and electrical equipment issues account for 1.6% of MOT failures on 2011 Mitsubishi Fuso Canter 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.
Steering — 1.3% of failures
Steering issues account for 1.3% of MOT failures on 2011 Mitsubishi Fuso Canter 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.
Tyres — 1.0% of failures
Tyres issues account for 1.0% of MOT failures on 2011 Mitsubishi Fuso Canter 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.
