Average for cars of the same age and mileage
Top failures
Brake pads worn below 1.5mm 3.39%
Pads worn below 1.5mm lose stopping power and can damage discs, so replacement is needed before the car is driven.
Tyre tread below 1.6mm 2.9%
Tread below 1.6mm is illegal and reduces grip in wet conditions, so the tyre must be replaced.
Position lamp not working 2.63%
A failed position lamp makes the car harder to see in poor light and is illegal, so it must be repaired.
Tyre ply or cords exposed 2.21%
Exposed ply or cords can let the tyre fail suddenly, so the tyre must be replaced before the car is driven.
Wiper blade not clearing windscreen 1.59%
Wipers that do not clear the windscreen reduce visibility in rain, which is a safety risk, so replace them.
Anti-roll bar linkage ball joint worn 1.31%
A worn linkage ball joint can rattle, affect handling and eventually fail, so it should be replaced.
Common advisories
Tyre worn close to legal limit (17.77%) · Brake pads wearing thin (12.93%) · Linkage ball joint slight play (11.62%) · Brake disc pitted or scored (9.82%) · Suspension ball joint slight play (4.84%) · Anti-roll bar ball joint slight play (2.84%)
