Average for cars of the same age and mileage
Top failures
Tyre tread below 1.6mm 1.83%
Tread below 1.6mm is illegal and reduces grip in wet conditions, so the tyre must be replaced.
Brake pads worn below 1.5mm 1.5%
Pads worn below 1.5mm lose stopping power and can damage discs, so replacement is needed before the car is driven.
Coil spring fractured or broken 1.17%
A broken coil spring can leave the car sitting low or unstable, so it must be replaced before driving.
Dipped beam headlamp not working 1.13%
A failed dipped beam makes it hard to see and be seen at night, so the lamp needs fixing before driving.
Windscreen washer fluid insufficient 0.94%
Washers are not supplying enough liquid, so the windscreen cannot be cleared properly, which is a safety issue.
Tyre cut reaching ply or cords 0.72%
A cut reaching the ply or cords weakens the tyre and can cause a burst, so it must be replaced.
Common advisories
Tyre slightly damaged or cracking (13.43%) · Tyre worn close to legal limit (12.09%) · Brake pads wearing thin (7.26%) · Brake disc pitted or scored (6.27%) · Brake discs showing some wear (3.75%) · Nail in tyre, monitor (2.28%)
