Average for cars of the same age and mileage
Top failures
Daytime running lamp not working 3.55%
A failed daytime running lamp makes the car less visible to other road users, so it should be repaired.
Wiper blade not clearing windscreen 3.32%
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 1.45%
Pads worn below 1.5mm lose stopping power and can damage discs, so replacement is needed before the car is driven.
Tyre tread below 1.6mm 0.99%
Tread below 1.6mm is illegal and reduces grip in wet conditions, so the tyre must be replaced.
Windscreen washer fluid insufficient 0.94%
Washers are not supplying enough liquid, so the windscreen cannot be cleared properly, which is a safety issue.
Steering rack gaiter no longer sealed 0.82%
A damaged gaiter lets dirt into the steering rack, causing wear and possibly costly repairs later.
Common advisories
Tyre worn close to legal limit (10.14%) · Brake pads wearing thin (5.97%) · Brake disc pitted or scored (4.05%) · Tyre slightly damaged or cracking (2.99%) · Brake discs showing some wear (1.59%) · Tyre worn close to legal limit (1.41%)
