Top failures
Position lamp not working 7.63%
A failed position lamp makes the car harder to see in poor light and is illegal, so it must be repaired.
Parking brake efficiency below minimum 7.31%
The parking brake holds the car less well than required, so it may roll on a slope and needs repair.
Parking brake inoperative on one side 5.96%
The parking brake does not work on one side, so the car may not hold on a slope and needs repair.
Suspension ball joint excessively worn 5.96%
A worn ball joint can fail and cause loss of steering control, so it must be replaced promptly.
Service brake excessively binding 5%
A brake that drags when released can overheat, wear quickly and waste fuel, so it needs prompt inspection.
Brake pads worn below 1.5mm 3.46%
Pads worn below 1.5mm lose stopping power and can damage discs, so replacement is needed before the car is driven.
