Top failures
Wiper blade not clearing windscreen 2.86%
Wipers that do not clear the windscreen reduce visibility in rain, which is a safety risk, so replace them.
Brake pads worn below 1.5mm 1.66%
Pads worn below 1.5mm lose stopping power and can damage discs, so replacement is needed before the car is driven.
Tyre cut reaching ply or cords 1.21%
A cut reaching the ply or cords weakens the tyre and can cause a burst, so it must be replaced.
Dipped beam headlamp not working 1.17%
A failed dipped beam makes it hard to see and be seen at night, so the lamp needs fixing before driving.
Headlamp aim set too low 0.92%
Headlamps aimed too low light the road poorly and reduce the driver's view ahead, especially at night.
Stop lamp not working 0.92%
A failed stop lamp means drivers behind cannot see when you brake, a safety risk that must be fixed.
Common advisories
Tyre worn close to legal limit (8.07%) · Brake pads wearing thin (7.37%) · Brake disc pitted or scored (4.3%) · Tyre slightly damaged or cracking (3.75%) · Anti-roll bar linkage pin/bush worn (2.56%) · Brake discs showing some wear (2.5%)
