Average for cars of the same age and mileage
Top failures
Wiper blade not clearing windscreen 1.38%
Wipers that do not clear the windscreen reduce visibility in rain, which is a safety risk, so replace them.
Tyre tread below 1.6mm 1.26%
Tread below 1.6mm is illegal and reduces grip in wet conditions, so the tyre must be replaced.
Brake pads worn below 1.5mm 1.06%
Pads worn below 1.5mm lose stopping power and can damage discs, so replacement is needed before the car is driven.
Headlamp aim set too high 0.77%
Headlamps aimed too high can dazzle other drivers, and adjusting them is usually a quick job.
Tyre cut reaching ply or cords 0.69%
A cut reaching the ply or cords weakens the tyre and can cause a burst, so it must be replaced.
Shock absorber serious fluid leak 0.6%
A shock absorber leaking heavily has likely lost its damping, so the car will handle and brake less safely.
Common advisories
Tyre worn close to legal limit (9.44%) · Brake pads wearing thin (6.63%) · Brake disc pitted or scored (4.07%) · Child seat limits belt inspection (1.69%) · Tyre worn close to legal limit (1.46%) · Engine oil leak, not excessive (1.26%)
