Top failures
Parking brake efficiency below minimum 4.79%
The parking brake holds the car less well than required, so it may roll on a slope and needs repair.
Wiper blade not clearing windscreen 3.69%
Wipers that do not clear the windscreen reduce visibility in rain, which is a safety risk, so replace them.
Rear fog lamp not working 3.59%
A failed rear fog lamp reduces visibility in fog and leaves you less visible to following traffic, so repair it.
Position lamp not working 3.49%
A failed position lamp makes the car harder to see in poor light and is illegal, so it must be repaired.
Service brake excessively binding 3.29%
A brake that drags when released can overheat, wear quickly and waste fuel, so it needs prompt inspection.
Horn not working 2.99%
A non-working horn removes a key warning tool for other road users, so it must be repaired before driving.
Common advisories
Tyre worn close to legal limit (8.48%) · Brake disc pitted or scored (7.19%) · Engine oil leak, not excessive (5.79%) · Chassis corroded but still rigid (5.59%) · Tyre slightly damaged or cracking (4.89%) · Anti-roll bar pin/bush showing wear (4.89%)
