Car went in for an MOT today, got a call to say it had failed and had numerous big things wrong with it and a large list of advisories. Advised to not bother with the repair work (£1000+). Not issued with an MOT failure certificate and not charged for the work despite offering as apparently it took less than an hour to check. I asked them to write down the main things that were wrong with it but it looks fairly generic to me (corrosion, handbrake not performing well, steering leak fault etc). I’m a bit confused, should I not have got a failure certificate? Not used this garage before so now I’m concerned they just didn’t want to bother with the repair work or haven’t even undertaken the MOT properly. Is it stupid to go get another MOT done by another garage? Clueless about cars!
