Top failures
CV joint boot split or insecure 10.58%
A split CV boot lets dirt in and grease out, so the joint wears and may need full replacement.
Position lamp not working 8.75%
A failed position lamp makes the car harder to see in poor light and is illegal, so it must be repaired.
Parking brake efficiency below minimum 7.75%
The parking brake holds the car less well than required, so it may roll on a slope and needs repair.
Stop lamp not working 6.4%
A failed stop lamp means drivers behind cannot see when you brake, a safety risk that must be fixed.
Suspension ball joint excessively worn 6.33%
A worn ball joint can fail and cause loss of steering control, so it must be replaced promptly.
Parking brake inoperative on one side 4.88%
The parking brake does not work on one side, so the car may not hold on a slope and needs repair.
Common advisories
Engine oil leak, not excessive (24.88%) · Tyre worn close to legal limit (16.76%) · Brake disc pitted or scored (15.45%) · Brake pads wearing thin (7.73%) · Coil spring showing some corrosion (6.2%) · Suspension ball joint slight play (5.66%)
