Average for cars of the same age and mileage
Top failures
Tyre tread below 1.6mm 0.95%
Tread below 1.6mm is illegal and reduces grip in wet conditions, so the tyre must be replaced.
Wiper blade not clearing windscreen 0.72%
Wipers that do not clear the windscreen reduce visibility in rain, which is a safety risk, so replace them.
Ball joint dust cover no longer sealed 0.66%
A damaged dust cover lets dirt into the joint, speeding wear, so the joint may need replacing later.
Tyre cut reaching ply or cords 0.62%
A cut reaching the ply or cords weakens the tyre and can cause a burst, so it must be replaced.
Tyre ply or cords exposed 0.53%
Exposed ply or cords can let the tyre fail suddenly, so the tyre must be replaced before the car is driven.
Tyre bulge from structural failure 0.51%
A bulge means the tyre's structure has failed and it could burst suddenly, so it must be replaced at once.
Common advisories
Tyre worn close to legal limit (9.21%) · Brake pads wearing thin (4.09%) · Brake disc pitted or scored (3.45%) · Tyre slightly damaged or cracking (2.82%) · Tyre worn close to legal limit (1.38%) · Sub-frame showing corrosion (1.36%)
