Hyundai Getz MOT pass rate and common faults
MOT tests in 2025, published 22 Jun 2026. DVSA publishes a new year each summer.
16,459 Hyundai Getz cars had an MOT in 2025 and 53.4% passed first time. That is below what cars of the same ages scored (58.2%).
Find the year your car was first registered below, then check the faults it is most likely to fail on.
Pass rate by year
Each year's first-time pass rate, with a tick for all cars first used that year. Years with fewer than 300 tests, and cars over 20 years old, are left out. Years with 1,000 or more tests link to a page of their own, with that year's common faults.
Common failures
The share of all Hyundai Getz cars tested that failed on, or had fixed at the station, each item. Worth checking before the MOT or before you buy.
| Item | Value |
|---|---|
| Stop lamp: not working | 7.1% |
| Joints: constant velocity boot split or insecure, no longer prevents the ingress of dirt | 7.0% |
| Position lamp: not working | 6.8% |
| Wipers: does not clear the windscreen effectively | 5.0% |
| Linkage ball joint dust cover: ball joint dust cover no longer prevents the ingress of dirt | 4.4% |
| Exhaust system: has a major leak of exhaust gases | 3.5% |
| Tread depth: tread depth below requirements of 1.6mm | 3.2% |
| Headlamp aim: projected beam image is obviously incorrect | 3.2% |

Common advisories
Advisories are things the tester noticed that were not bad enough to fail. They often turn into failures later. What advisories mean for the next MOT.
| Item | Value |
|---|---|
| Tread depth: worn close to legal limit/worn on edge | 22.2% |
| Rigid brake pipes: corroded, covered in grease or other material | 19.1% |
| Condition: slightly damaged/cracking or perishing | 14.5% |
| Engine oil leaks: leak, but not excessive | 12.0% |
| Sub-frame: corroded but not seriously weakened | 10.0% |
| Registration plates: deteriorated but not likely to be misread | 9.9% |
| Exhaust system: has a minor leak of exhaust gases | 8.8% |
| Coil spring: corroded | 7.4% |

Typical mileage
Recorded mileage at the MOT. A car well above the range for its age has done more work than most; one far below is worth a closer look at its MOT history.
| Age | Low | Typical | High | All cars, typical |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| 15-17 years | 54,300 | 75,000 miles | 97,200 | 101,600 |
| 18-20 years | 56,900 | 77,000 miles | 99,300 | 106,700 |
| 21+ years | 53,600 | 72,000 miles | 92,900 | 99,200 |

Reliability and recalls
- No reliability score yet: that needs 20,000 tests on cars aged 3 and over, and the Hyundai Getz had 16,459. Why we set the bar there.
- 1 recall for the Hyundai Getz, from the DVSA recalls list.
- Check if a Hyundai has been recalled on GOV.UK, using its registration.
- All Hyundai models and the Hyundai vehicle history check.
