Top failures
Wiper blade not clearing windscreen 3.11%
Wipers that do not clear the windscreen reduce visibility in rain, which is a safety risk, so replace them.
Tyre cut reaching ply or cords 1.42%
A cut reaching the ply or cords weakens the tyre and can cause a burst, so it must be replaced.
Shock absorber serious fluid leak 1.33%
A shock absorber leaking heavily has likely lost its damping, so the car will handle and brake less safely.
Tyre tread below 1.6mm 1.28%
Tread below 1.6mm is illegal and reduces grip in wet conditions, so the tyre must be replaced.
Stop lamp not working 1.06%
A failed stop lamp means drivers behind cannot see when you brake, a safety risk that must be fixed.
Brake pads worn below 1.5mm 1.05%
Pads worn below 1.5mm lose stopping power and can damage discs, so replacement is needed before the car is driven.
Common advisories
Tyre worn close to legal limit (10.13%) · Brake disc pitted or scored (9.77%) · Brake pads wearing thin (6.73%) · Tyre slightly damaged or cracking (3.59%) · Shock absorber light oil misting (3.01%) · Tyre has a shallow cut (2.09%)
