Pre-MOT Inspection Checklist for Jeep Wrangler Ult Un-Ltd Owners

These checks follow this Jeep Wrangler Ult Un-Ltd's own most-recorded failure strings, starting with what a tester is most likely to flag on a Jeep Wrangler Ult Un-Ltd.

• 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 coil springs — “coil spring fractured or broken”

  Look up inside each wheel arch with a torch, all the way round the spring. A snapped spring usually breaks at the very bottom coil, where a quick glance will not reach.

• the suspension joints — “linkage ball joints ball joint excessively worn”

  With the car parked on level ground, rock the top of each front wheel in and out while someone watches the suspension arm. Clunks, or rubber boots split and greasy, are what testers record here.
