How reliable is the Chrysler Grand Voyager compared with other cars?

We do not publish a comparison for the Chrysler Grand Voyager, because the cars of this model that have been tested do not cover a wide enough range of ages and mileages. Its raw pass rate is 59.2% across 3,787 tests, but comparing a raw rate between models mostly ranks them by how new they are rather than how good they are. The failure and advisory patterns further down the page are still drawn from real tests and are worth reading.

What is the most common MOT failure on a Chrysler Grand Voyager?

The item recorded most often is "Parking brake efficiency below minimum requirement", which appears in 19.4% of failed Chrysler Grand Voyager tests. Because one failed test can list several items, these shares do not add up to 100%.

What do testers most often warn about on a Chrysler Grand Voyager?

The most common advisory is "Tyre tread depth not in accordance with the requirements", noted on 24.5% of all Chrysler Grand Voyager tests. An advisory is not a failure: it flags something that will likely need attention before the next test.

What mileage does a Chrysler Grand Voyager usually have at its MOT?

The average odometer reading recorded at test is 112,950 miles. This is the mileage across all tested examples of every age, not an annual figure, so treat it as a description of the fleet rather than a target for one car.

Does a Chrysler Grand Voyager get harder to pass as it ages?

Yes. At 9 to 11 years old, 61.4% of Chrysler Grand Voyager tests pass. By fifteen years or more, that falls to 57.5%. Nearly every model follows this pattern, which is why comparing raw pass rates between models is misleading unless age is accounted for.

Are most Chrysler Grand Voyager models petrol or diesel?

Of the Chrysler Grand Voyager cars tested, 82% are diesel, 17% are petrol, 1% are lpg. Fuel type affects which items tend to fail, particularly emissions and exhaust components.

Chrysler Grand Voyager MOT pass rate & common failures

From 3,787 recorded MOT tests of the Chrysler Grand Voyager, published by DVSA.

Data updated 29 July 2026

Quick answer

Across 3,787 MOT tests, 59.2% of Chrysler Grand Voyager tests ended in a pass. This figure is not adjusted for age or mileage, so it is not a reliability ranking: the Chrysler Grand Voyager fleet does not yet cover a wide enough spread of ages and distances to compare it fairly against other models. Its most commonly recorded failure is parking brake efficiency below minimum requirement, which appears in 19.4% of failed tests. Cars of this model average 112,950 miles on the odometer when tested.

Recorded pass rate

59.2%unadjusted, not comparable3,787 tests

We are not publishing a ranking for the Grand Voyager. The examples tested do not cover a wide enough spread of ages and mileages to compare it fairly, and an unadjusted pass rate mostly sorts models by how recently they were bought rather than how well they were built. The failure and advisory patterns below come from the same 3,787 tests and are worth reading on their own terms.

How this was worked out

Method and limits

Figures come from the DVSA anonymised MOT testing dataset, published under the Open Government Licence. Only class 4 initial tests are counted: retests are excluded so a car appears once, and abandoned tests are excluded entirely. No adjusted rate is shown because this model's tested examples do not cover enough of the national age and mileage range for standardisation to mean anything.

An MOT measures whether a car met a legal standard on the day. It is not a breakdown record, a service history or a running-cost estimate, and a pass rate is a property of a fleet rather than a prediction about one car.
