New research from eBay, the UK’s top online marketplace for vehicle parts, highlights that many motorists are failing their MOTs due to surprising issues. Key problems include suspension failures, with broken springs causing 821,991 failures, and even missing components like suspension arms and wiper blades. Mismatched headlights and worn tyres (over 1,081,318 vehicles affected) also contribute significantly.
Abir Tewari, UK Director of Commercial Operations for Parts & Accessories at eBay, stresses the importance of fixing these easily resolvable issues. eBay’s My Garage feature helps drivers find the right parts based on their registration numbers.
To assist, eBay is offering a 20% discount on select MOT parts until October 31, along with an Assured Fit guarantee for worry-free shopping. Let’s keep our vehicles MOT-ready!
