Average for cars of the same age and mileage

Top failures

  1. Wiper blade not clearing windscreen 0.92%

    Wipers that do not clear the windscreen reduce visibility in rain, which is a safety risk, so replace them.

  2. Brake pads worn below 1.5mm 0.91%

    Pads worn below 1.5mm lose stopping power and can damage discs, so replacement is needed before the car is driven.

  3. Tyre cut reaching ply or cords 0.75%

    A cut reaching the ply or cords weakens the tyre and can cause a burst, so it must be replaced.

  4. Tyre tread below 1.6mm 0.67%

    Tread below 1.6mm is illegal and reduces grip in wet conditions, so the tyre must be replaced.

  5. Windscreen washer fluid insufficient 0.36%

    Washers are not supplying enough liquid, so the windscreen cannot be cleared properly, which is a safety issue.

  6. Tyre pressure monitoring system faulty 0.32%

    A faulty tyre pressure monitor cannot warn about low tyre pressure, so check tyres manually and have the fault diagnosed.

Common advisories

Tyre worn close to legal limit (8.28%) · Tyre slightly damaged or cracking (5.47%) · Brake pads wearing thin (5.29%) · Child seat limits belt inspection (1.81%) · Nail in tyre, monitor (1.56%) · Tyre has a shallow cut (1.44%)
