Average for cars of the same age and mileage
Top failures
Tyre cut reaching ply or cords 1.85%
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 1.05%
Exposed ply or cords can let the tyre fail suddenly, so the tyre must be replaced before the car is driven.
Track rod end ball joint excessively worn 0.8%
Worn steering ball joints can affect steering control and safety, so repair is needed before the car is driven.
Headlamp aim set too low 0.8%
Headlamps aimed too low light the road poorly and reduce the driver's view ahead, especially at night.
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.
Number plate does not meet standards 0.45%
The plate does not meet legal specifications, so it must be replaced with a compliant one before the car is driven.
Common advisories
Tyre worn close to legal limit (7.22%) · Tyre has a shallow cut (2.64%) · Tyre slightly damaged or cracking (2.13%) · Nail in tyre, monitor (2%) · Brake disc pitted or scored (1.69%) · Track rod ball joint slight play (1.62%)
