Hsun Unknown MOT failure rate
What a Hsun Unknown fails its MOT on, from real DVSA test data, and the part that resolves each item.
Based on 17 MOT tests in DVSA data.
We hold 17 MOT tests for the Hsun Unknown in the DVSA data. That is a smaller sample than our high-volume models, so treat these figures as indicative rather than definitive.
On what we have, about 29.4% fail, most often on registration plate, lamps & electrical, suspension, visibility/wipers. For a precise picture of your own car, use the registration check on the home page. Confirm any part against your registration or VIN before buying.
What it fails on, and why
A missing, damaged, dirty or incorrectly-spaced number plate, or one using the wrong font, will fail. A replacement plate is inexpensive.
Lighting is the single most common MOT failure and the cheapest to put right. A blown headlight, brake-light or number-plate bulb, a cracked lens, or a headlamp beam that points too high or low will all fail. Most are a two-minute bulb swap.
Suspension failures usually mean a worn or snapped coil spring, a leaking shock absorber, or play in a lower arm ball joint or bush. The tester checks for corrosion, fractures and excessive movement. A broken front spring is one of the most common failures on higher-mileage cars and is a straightforward replacement.
Visibility failures include torn or smearing wiper blades, a washer jet that does not reach the screen, and chips or cracks in the driver's swept area. Blades and washer fluid are quick, cheap fixes.
This covers a range of smaller items, from a non-working horn to a warning light left on.
Seat-belt failures are frays, cuts, corroded anchorages, or a belt that will not lock under a sharp pull or retract properly.
The parts that fix each
If your car has just failed, you have 10 working days to fix the items and get a free partial retest. These are the usual parts; confirm the exact fitment against your registration or VIN before buying.
