Description of the faults and MOT result. The faults and problems found when a vehicle is MOT tested will be classified as follows:
- Minor faults (DL) do not cause an immediate safety risk.
- Major faults (DG) are more serious, and they pose a potential safety risk to drivers and others. It could also be a defect that has a damaging impact on the environment.
- Dangerous faults (DMG) pose an immediate risk to the safety of the driver and other road users or have a damaging impact on the environment.
When several faults are found in the same element of the vehicle, it may be classified in the highest degree of importance if it can be shown that the combined effect of the faults is a higher risk for road safety.
When no faults at all or only minor faults are found during a test, an MOT certificate will still be issued.
If a major fault is found during a test, this will result in an MOT failure and the owner will not be issued with an MOT pass certificate.
If a dangerous fault is found during a test, this will also result in an MOT failure.
Follow-up of the faults
- Minor faults will be repaired within 2 months. A new test is not necessary, except if the first test resulted in an MOT failure.
- Major faults disqualify the vehicle from being driven on public roads except for its transfer to the garage or, in this case, for the regularisation of its situation and be back to the MOT centre for a new test within 2 months, starting date from the first failure result.
- Dangerous faults disqualify the vehicle from being driven on public roads. In this case, the transfer of the vehicle from the MOT centre to its destination it will be carried out through another vehicle. Once the faults have been rectified, another MOT test will take place within 2 months, starting date from the first failure result.
- If the vehicle undergoes the second test after the deadline, a new full test will be completed, without detriment to possible sanctions.
- Every disqualification to circulate on the roads, as a consequence of faults, will be registered electronically in the vehicle register.
- In the case of major or dangerous faults, vehicles must undergo an inspection of the faulted elements once they have been rectified. If other faults are found during the inspection, these will determine the result of the inspection according to their classification, according to the MOT centre manual.
- In every case, faults will be written down in the MOT report.
- From 20th May 2018, owners can choose the MOT centre freely for both the first inspection and any extra tests. Until this date, extra tests must be conducted in the same centre as for the first inspection.
