Why a clean MOT does not always mean a car is free from safety recalls

Many buyers feel safe when they see a long run of MOT passes.

But MOT only checks the condition of a car on the day of the test.

It does not confirm whether a past safety recall was ever repaired.

A car can pass MOT and still have had a serious recall that was never fixed.

Car Owl links MOT history with DVLA identity, mileage patterns, keeper changes, theft status, write off markers and finance so buyers can see the bigger picture before buying.

A clean MOT is important but it is not the whole story.
