Top failures
Wiper blade not clearing windscreen 2.5%
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 2.03%
Pads worn below 1.5mm lose stopping power and can damage discs, so replacement is needed before the car is driven.
Parking brake efficiency below minimum 1.16%
The parking brake holds the car less well than required, so it may roll on a slope and needs repair.
Tyre ply or cords exposed 0.86%
Exposed ply or cords can let the tyre fail suddenly, so the tyre must be replaced before the car is driven.
Tyre tread below 1.6mm 0.81%
Tread below 1.6mm is illegal and reduces grip in wet conditions, so the tyre must be replaced.
Tyre cut reaching ply or cords 0.73%
A cut reaching the ply or cords weakens the tyre and can cause a burst, so it must be replaced.
Common advisories
Tyre worn close to legal limit (11.42%) · Tyre slightly damaged or cracking (8.98%) · Brake pads wearing thin (8.22%) · Brake disc pitted or scored (3.78%) · Brake discs showing some wear (1.96%) · Child seat limits belt inspection (1.64%)
