Top failures
Coil spring fractured or broken 6.82%
A broken coil spring can leave the car sitting low or unstable, so it must be replaced before driving.
Position lamp not working 6.51%
A failed position lamp makes the car harder to see in poor light and is illegal, so it must be repaired.
Brake pads worn below 1.5mm 4.53%
Pads worn below 1.5mm lose stopping power and can damage discs, so replacement is needed before the car is driven.
Registration plate lamp not working 3.11%
A dark number plate lamp makes the plate hard to read at night, which is illegal and must be fixed.
Tyre tread below 1.6mm 3.04%
Tread below 1.6mm is illegal and reduces grip in wet conditions, so the tyre must be replaced.
Wiper blade not clearing windscreen 2.73%
Wipers that do not clear the windscreen reduce visibility in rain, which is a safety risk, so replace them.
Common advisories
Engine oil leak, not excessive (19.45%) · Tyre worn close to legal limit (18.14%) · Brake pads wearing thin (11.15%) · Tyre slightly damaged or cracking (8.93%) · Brake disc pitted or scored (7.75%) · Exhaust has minor gas leak (6.11%)
