Pre-MOT Inspection Checklist for Chrysler Grand Voyager Owners

These checks follow this Chrysler Grand Voyager's own most-recorded failure strings, starting with what a tester is most likely to flag on a Chrysler Grand Voyager.

  • the lights — “registration plate lamp(s) inoperative in the case of multiple lamps or light sources”

    Switch everything on and walk round the car: both headlamps on dip and main, every indicator, both brake lights, reverse, fog and the two number-plate lamps. A bulb is a few pounds and a five-minute job.

  • the windscreen — “windscreen damaged”

    Check the driver’s side of the screen within the swept area for chips and cracks; anything larger than 10mm in the driver’s central view is a fail. Most chips can be resin-repaired for far less than a new screen.

  • the battery — “battery(ies) insecure”

    Check the battery is secure and its terminals are clean and tight — a loose battery is a fail on its own, and a weak one shows up as slow cranking on a cold morning.

Derived from the DVSA failure strings testers recorded for the Chrysler Grand Voyager. A check that finds nothing means the item is likely fine, not that the test is guaranteed.
