Reliability
The Suzuki Vitara has an average MOT pass rate of 72.6%, which is 15.9 percentage points below the Suzuki brand average of 88.4%. This is a reasonable result that reflects typical UK reliability standards. Regular servicing and addressing advisories promptly will help keep your Vitara on the road.
The most common reasons a Suzuki Vitara fails its MOT are body, cab or chassis excessively corroded at a mounting point, a direction indicator lamp missing, inoperative or in the case of a multiple light source more than 1/2 not functioning, product on the lens or light source which obviously reduces light intensity or changes emitted colour to other than white or yellow. If you are preparing your Vitara for its MOT, checking these areas first could save you a retest fee. Our detailed fault analysis includes estimated repair costs for each failure type.
Before buying a used Suzuki Vitara, we recommend checking the full MOT history, write-off status, outstanding finance, and stolen vehicle status. These checks can be done for free using the registration number.
