2022 Ford Transit Connect
CarHunch analysed 2,493 real MOT records for the 2022 Ford Transit Connect. This breakdown of actual test outcomes — pass rates, defect profiles, mileage data — isn't published anywhere else.
The 2022 Ford Transit Connect is a strong performer, with an 89.7% first-time pass rate that sits comfortably 9.7 points above the UK average—this is a genuinely reliable van. Only 10.1% have ever suffered a dangerous defect, which is below concerning levels and suggests structural and safety issues are rare in this cohort.
At 41,589 miles median, these vans are running low for their age, which means most examples should still have plenty of life ahead. With just 0.22 failures and 1.1 advisories per vehicle on average, you're looking at minimal repair burden—when shopping for one, focus your inspection on the condition of the bodywork and interior trim rather than mechanical dread.
What to check before buying a 2022 Ford Transit Connect
Practical pre-purchase checks for this age and model.
- 📋 Check the full MOT history. Look for recurring advisories — slow-building issues like corrosion or brake wear patterns show up years before they become failures. Enter the reg below for a full AI analysis.
- 🔍 Inspect for corrosion in person. Brake pipes, sills, subframes, and chassis legs. Surface rust is normal at this age; structural rust is a serious problem that's expensive to fix and can fail an MOT.
- 🛞 Check tyres and brakes. The most common advisory items at this age. Budget for replacement if they're near the limit — factor this into your offer price.
- 📄 Run an HPI check. The MOT history won't show outstanding finance, insurance write-offs, or stolen status — an HPI check will.
