Top failures
Tyre tread below 1.6mm 1.21%
Tread below 1.6mm is illegal and reduces grip in wet conditions, so the tyre must be replaced.
Tyre cut reaching ply or cords 0.66%
A cut reaching the ply or cords weakens the tyre and can cause a burst, so it must be replaced.
Airbag warning lamp shows fault 0.57%
A lit airbag warning means the airbag system may not deploy in a crash, so it needs diagnosing and repairing.
Tyre bulge from structural failure 0.37%
A bulge means the tyre's structure has failed and it could burst suddenly, so it must be replaced at once.
Tyre ply or cords exposed 0.31%
Exposed ply or cords can let the tyre fail suddenly, so the tyre must be replaced before the car is driven.
LED or HID headlamp cleaner inoperative 0.18%
Without a working cleaner, dirt can build up on LED or HID lenses and reduce light output, so repair is needed.
Common advisories
Tyre worn close to legal limit (5.63%) · Tyre slightly damaged or cracking (2.45%) · Brake disc pitted or scored (2.39%) · Brake pads wearing thin (1.92%) · Nail in tyre, monitor (1.56%) · Tyre has a shallow cut (1.12%)
