Frequently asked questions

What MOT pass rate does the Ford Puma achieve?

DVSA publishes aggregate MOT statistics by make and model in its quarterly dataset. Newer cars (under three years old) do not require an MOT, so initial pass rates reflect the first MOT test typically at 3 years. Always check the gov.uk MOT history for an individual vehicle.

Is the Ford Puma reliable?

Long-term reliability data for the Ford Puma is collected by consumer organisations such as Which? and HonestJohn. Owners can check the published MOT history of a specific vehicle on gov.uk to see how it has performed at each annual test.
