Average for cars of the same age and mileage
Top failures
Brake pads worn below 1.5mm 1.32%
Pads worn below 1.5mm lose stopping power and can damage discs, so replacement is needed before the car is driven.
Tyre tread below 1.6mm 1.27%
Tread below 1.6mm is illegal and reduces grip in wet conditions, so the tyre must be replaced.
Tyre cut reaching ply or cords 1.26%
A cut reaching the ply or cords weakens the tyre and can cause a burst, so it must be replaced.
Brake discs significantly worn 0.55%
Heavily worn discs reduce braking performance and wear pads faster, so a replacement will soon be needed.
Tyre tear from structural failure 0.48%
A tear in the tyre's structure means it can fail suddenly, so it must be replaced before the car is driven.
Tyre ply or cords exposed 0.48%
Exposed ply or cords can let the tyre fail suddenly, so the tyre must be replaced before the car is driven.
Common advisories
Tyre slightly damaged or cracking (11.72%) · Brake disc pitted or scored (11.07%) · Brake pads wearing thin (10.11%) · Tyre worn close to legal limit (9.53%) · Shock absorber light oil misting (3.37%) · Child seat limits belt inspection (2.58%)
