Top failures
Coil spring fractured or broken 8.37%
A broken coil spring can leave the car sitting low or unstable, so it must be replaced before driving.
Tyre tread below 1.6mm 3.56%
Tread below 1.6mm is illegal and reduces grip in wet conditions, so the tyre must be replaced.
Position lamp not working 3.35%
A failed position lamp makes the car harder to see in poor light and is illegal, so it must be repaired.
Stop lamp not working 3.11%
A failed stop lamp means drivers behind cannot see when you brake, a safety risk that must be fixed.
Tyre ply or cords exposed 2.98%
Exposed ply or cords can let the tyre fail suddenly, so the tyre must be replaced before the car is driven.
Wiper blade not clearing windscreen 2.52%
Wipers that do not clear the windscreen reduce visibility in rain, which is a safety risk, so replace them.
Common advisories
Tyre worn close to legal limit (19.6%) · Coil spring showing some corrosion (10.21%) · Engine oil leak, not excessive (9.06%) · Brake disc pitted or scored (8.56%) · Tyre slightly damaged or cracking (6.94%) · Suspension arm pin/bush showing wear (3.75%)
