Top failures
Brake pads worn below 1.5mm 1.2%
Pads worn below 1.5mm lose stopping power and can damage discs, so replacement is needed before the car is driven.
Tyre cut reaching ply or cords 1.2%
A cut reaching the ply or cords weakens the tyre and can cause a burst, so it must be replaced.
Tyre tread below 1.6mm 1.12%
Tread below 1.6mm is illegal and reduces grip in wet conditions, so the tyre must be replaced.
Tyre ply or cords exposed 0.49%
Exposed ply or cords can let the tyre fail suddenly, so the tyre must be replaced before the car is driven.
Windscreen washer fluid insufficient 0.46%
Washers are not supplying enough liquid, so the windscreen cannot be cleared properly, which is a safety issue.
Windscreen washers not working 0.33%
Without working washers the windscreen cannot be cleaned while driving, which is a safety risk in dirty weather.
