Top failures
Airbag warning lamp shows fault 2.17%
A lit airbag warning means the airbag system may not deploy in a crash, so it needs diagnosing and repairing.
Ball joint dust cover no longer sealed 1.8%
A damaged dust cover lets dirt into the joint, speeding wear, so the joint may need replacing later.
Brake pads worn below 1.5mm 1.48%
Pads worn below 1.5mm lose stopping power and can damage discs, so replacement is needed before the car is driven.
Tyre cut reaching ply or cords 1.13%
A cut reaching the ply or cords weakens the tyre and can cause a burst, so it must be replaced.
Wiper blade not clearing windscreen 1.08%
Wipers that do not clear the windscreen reduce visibility in rain, which is a safety risk, so replace them.
Tyre tread below 1.6mm 0.77%
Tread below 1.6mm is illegal and reduces grip in wet conditions, so the tyre must be replaced.
Common advisories
Tyre worn close to legal limit (8.54%) · Brake pads wearing thin (7.49%) · Brake disc pitted or scored (4.64%) · Suspension arm pin/bush showing wear (3.98%) · Brake pipes corroded and greasy (2.84%) · Brake discs showing some wear (2.06%)
