Top failures
Side repeater not working 3.06%
A failed side repeater means other road users cannot see your intended direction change, which is dangerous and must be fixed.
Position lamp not working 2.58%
A failed position lamp makes the car harder to see in poor light and is illegal, so it must be repaired.
Headlamp aim set too high 2.38%
Headlamps aimed too high can dazzle other drivers, and adjusting them is usually a quick job.
Brake pads worn below 1.5mm 2.33%
Pads worn below 1.5mm lose stopping power and can damage discs, so replacement is needed before the car is driven.
Rear fog lamp not working 2.24%
A failed rear fog lamp reduces visibility in fog and leaves you less visible to following traffic, so repair it.
Headlamp beam pattern obviously incorrect 1.65%
A wrongly shaped beam can dazzle other drivers and reduce your own view of the road, so the lamps need correcting.
Common advisories
Brake pads wearing thin (7.29%) · Brake disc pitted or scored (7.1%) · Tyre worn close to legal limit (4.67%) · Tyre slightly damaged or cracking (3.4%) · Suspension ball joint slight play (2.19%) · Engine oil leak, not excessive (1.99%)
