Top failures
Track rod end ball joint excessively worn 6.05%
Worn steering ball joints can affect steering control and safety, so repair is needed before the car is driven.
Parking brake efficiency below minimum 4.01%
The parking brake holds the car less well than required, so it may roll on a slope and needs repair.
Stop lamp not working 3.94%
A failed stop lamp means drivers behind cannot see when you brake, a safety risk that must be fixed.
Brake pads worn below 1.5mm 3.25%
Pads worn below 1.5mm lose stopping power and can damage discs, so replacement is needed before the car is driven.
Parking brake inoperative on one side 2.93%
The parking brake does not work on one side, so the car may not hold on a slope and needs repair.
Position lamp not working 2.21%
A failed position lamp makes the car harder to see in poor light and is illegal, so it must be repaired.
Common advisories
Tyre worn close to legal limit (11.82%) · Brake pads wearing thin (10.73%) · Tyre slightly damaged or cracking (9.51%) · Brake disc pitted or scored (7.47%) · Track rod ball joint slight play (3.39%) · Service brake slightly binding (2.82%)
