Top failures
Position lamp not working 6.44%
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 6.1%
The parking brake holds the car less well than required, so it may roll on a slope and needs repair.
Service brake excessively binding 4.44%
A brake that drags when released can overheat, wear quickly and waste fuel, so it needs prompt inspection.
Parking brake inoperative on one side 4%
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 3.33%
A worn ball joint can fail and cause loss of steering control, so it must be replaced promptly.
Dipped beam headlamp not working 3.27%
A failed dipped beam makes it hard to see and be seen at night, so the lamp needs fixing before driving.
