Top failures
Position lamp not working 4.57%
A failed position lamp makes the car harder to see in poor light and is illegal, so it must be repaired.
Stop lamp not working 2.7%
A failed stop lamp means drivers behind cannot see when you brake, a safety risk that must be fixed.
Suspension arm pin/bush excessively worn 2.19%
Worn suspension arm bushes allow the wheel to move unpredictably, affecting steering, handling and tyre wear.
Tyre ply or cords exposed 2.05%
Exposed ply or cords can let the tyre fail suddenly, so the tyre must be replaced before the car is driven.
Rigid brake pipe excessively corroded 2.02%
Badly corroded brake pipes can leak or fail, which can cause a loss of braking, so repair is urgent.
Brake pads worn below 1.5mm 1.9%
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 (14.01%) · Suspension arm pin/bush showing wear (10.17%) · Brake pipes corroded and greasy (9.09%) · Brake pads wearing thin (7.32%) · Brake disc pitted or scored (6.72%) · Engine oil leak, not excessive (6.55%)
