Top failures
CV joint boot split or insecure 10.67%
A split CV boot lets dirt in and grease out, so the joint wears and may need full replacement.
Position lamp not working 9.36%
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 6.56%
A failed stop lamp means drivers behind cannot see when you brake, a safety risk that must be fixed.
Suspension ball joint excessively worn 6.05%
A worn ball joint can fail and cause loss of steering control, so it must be replaced promptly.
Registration plate lamp not working 4.34%
A dark number plate lamp makes the plate hard to read at night, which is illegal and must be fixed.
Parking brake efficiency below minimum 3.82%
The parking brake holds the car less well than required, so it may roll on a slope and needs repair.
Common advisories
Engine oil leak, not excessive (20.09%) · Tyre worn close to legal limit (14.61%) · Brake disc pitted or scored (13.41%) · Brake pads wearing thin (7.99%) · Suspension ball joint slight play (4.34%) · Exhaust mounting defective (3.65%)
